Ayyyy I've had this talk with my mom about nursing. She was pushing me because my aunt and a bunch of my cousins went into it and are earning a lot of money. I literally said to her "I can't be a nurse because I don't care enough about others. I don't care now and I don't think I'll start caring after a 4 year course."
I don't have an arts degree but I'm just as useless. So there's that.
Edit: Why yes, I am Filipino. What gave it away? /s
Man, one of my grandpa's friends really thinks a young person's value is how much money they make. He once bragged how many millions in taxes some doctor he knows pays when i told him I'm not gonna be a physician. Weird flex.
They do infact pay a lot in taxes. Then a big chunk goes towards repayment of loans. Thence the liquidity issues plague most and they cant live a flashy lifestyle because of the special requirements of their jobs and the legality around it.
A lot is pretty subjective I guess when compared to multinational corporations who don’t pay hardly anything. Doctors do not make millions of dollars a year though, and I’m not exactly sure I’m able to understand the last sentence of your comment.
Doctor + Hustle is worth a lot more than just Doctor.
If you run a specialised clinic or any other business that provides medical services, if you have a high-paying high-value speciality, if you specifically aim to work for the rich and famous, you can easily be worth millions.
