I will open a quilt shop and my husband may go into computer work. We will not make the income we make now but will keep our integrity intact. You might want to think about that broad brush you are using. Most docs are intelligent motivated people who can do more than one thing.
Good for you but I bet you have a lot more money in your pension plan than the average American and you can go that route. What is your age btw??
The doctors who work for the hospital my GF works at are making $50-60K per year in their pension plan paid by the hospitals alone besides their take home pay.
No, I am not envious but many docs are making more in their pension plan put in by the hospitals that what the average Americans are earning income wise.
Again, many doctors I know are the worst bitch and moan complainers...everyone else has had to suck it up and pull in their belts..doctors should be no different.
Thinking outside the box? You stop that...you stop that right now! :-)
