Career Plans for a premed

yo guys. im done with mcat. dont think i did too well but hopefully good enough to get into med school. but i am posting here to explore alternative careers. i think medicine is definitely more interesting than ibanking. but if i were a business owner, like owner of a chain of gyms in east europe or a chain of strip clubs, it might be even more satisfying.

but meanwhile, i dont think i could get an ibanking job even if i wanted to. i am only applying to med schools because i think i did rather well on mcat, my gpa is low. so the only alternative might be to serve 4yrs as an officer and then apply to mba. but i think thats a terrible idea. i'll have wasted 6yrs and med school+EM residency is only 7yrs. so should i chill and just go along with the current?? and i really want to live in east europe some day. i mean st petersburg or riga. but 7yrs of medical training seems like an eternity. and i'll be really screwed if 7yrs from now a doctor's salary in usa won't be enough to impress any girls in eastern europe...

god i thought it would be easier after having finished the mcat. but now im not even sure if i passed it.

i have 2 more weeks untill i get my mcat back. i really cant stand living in usa. if i made low 6figures in russia, i'd be pimping. in usa even if i work as an EM doctor, i'll have to deal with ugly and stupid people... and i wouldnt have as much opportunity to get a hot russian or east european wife. but even if i did, i would still have to work and htere is nothing glamorous about seeing sick people.
