UCLA Hospital - Real Doctors Salaries (includes real names)
is medicine more worth it in terms of job security? some of these guys arent THAT old...
just a thought. i know a ton of guys in the premed society who talk about money, booze, models and bottles as much as my finance classmates....i think its fair to say MOST premed kids are in it for the money... :P

i know there are non-medical employees mixed in, but most of them are professors who also practice medicine...

These guys are at the top of their field and have been for dozens of years, while any MD at a bank makes more, and even a PE associate at megafunds make more than the bottom half. I respect doctors a ton and while you can say for them it's about the money, it is a tough ass career progression (even more so than IB in many ways) and you really need to enjoy medicine to hack it.
There's a reason why 40% of each freshman class comes in pre-med and only half remain after the first chem class
Definitely agree with this post. The guy at the top of the list started his residency in 1972. This means that he's been in medicine for 38 years, with 5 years of residency in which he wasn't paid that much.
5 years in investment banking, assuming that you are good enough to be an A2A promote and you should be making near the bottom of that list. 38 years in the industry, I don't know if you can survive and continue to be promoted but I'm assuming that you'll be making more than $1.5 million.
Being a doctor is very cool and I have respect for them + the money can be very good at high levels.... but would you REALLY want to be one? Peoples lives are in your hands all the time... you have so much power, so much responsibility... there's so much blood and gore and other weird, disconcerting shit...
I'm simply just not cut out for it.
^^^^I'm definitely not cut out for it either. But I have a few friends that are doctors and some people really love medicine.
I remember once I was hanging out with a doctor buddy of mine and some of his surgeon friends from the hospital and I asked one how his week was and he was like "oh it was awesome, I even got to chop some guy's leg off yesterday!". I was like, "wouldn't that be a BAD week?". He's like "Nah man, I was saving his life, and it's a really cool/fun procedure". These guys have god complexes and they really like what they do, more power to them.
BUT THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO BUILD lbo models! HAHA! THEY SUCK!
Lol
In my opinion, you hafta be crazy good at memorizing to end up in medicine. And you have to be in school for 6 to 8 years, maybe more, then do internships, then do residency, and then you can be a doctor.
Of the 6 MD's in my group at least 3 have out-earned the top earner there for at least the past five years. The others are more year-to-year.
Do you guys have any idea how much malpractice insurance costs? Anyone getting into medicine nowadays for the money is a retard.
Wow. Was not expecting those numbers
