“Uh you shouldn’t want to be a doctor or physician just because of the money. You should want to help people too!”

It's true though, if you want to make money then you should do it optimally.
making good money via being a physician or doctor is the LEAST optimal path, extremely retarded.

this.

furthermore, it's restricted to people who are already well-off thereby producing physicians who can't relate to lower SES patients, I suspect that it might also increase incidences of bias against such patients esp along lines of race / SES.

Doctors nowadays actually discourage med school kids from pursuing careers in medicine. It happens all the time in residencies.

Well duh, they dont want their pay to drop. The entire process itself is an artificial barrier to keep wages and prestige propped up. I guess the barrier must be falling so they have to just straight up tell people to fuck off now instead of letting the gruling process do it for them.

Yes. If you do anything at all primarily because of the money you are a piece of shit, simple as.

What if I do it for my ego? Or because I like to learn?
Besides, we all go to college (except some minor exceptions) to get a stable career aka money. If college or medicine didnt give you access to the money and status nobody would do it.
Just be honest with yourself for once.

That contracts with so many surveys and tales of doctors complaining about burn-out, being over -worked, and rising workload because of a fundamentally unhealthy society and its habits. The more doctors = less burden of workload.

You shouldn't want to be a doctor or a physician because the US is unstable, you will be in crushing debt, and God only knows who would take the place of the AMA in the midst of a major reform. Go for actuarial science if you are looking for money. It's a 4 year degree. And with the respect you'd command, nobody would dream of asking you to dance in a tiktoc video.

I would say it otherwise:
If no one would go to college for the money, the stem department would be an empty wasteland and the art and social science department filled with people, cause fucking nobody likes hard shit except 0,00001% of turbo autists.

It's fine to do things for the money, but being a physician is way too much work and frankly risk (both healthwise, cf. current pandemic, as well as possibility of malpractice) relative to how much you actually do get paid. If you want lots of money go into banking or something, way more money for much less effort. (Yes finance people go into overtime but it's nothing compared to the normal hours that doctors have to face.)

whatever gets your dick hard I guess.
also I didn't go to college. it also a waste of time. I got a programming internship when I was 16 and started working in tech from then on.
I read about math for personal pleasure.

I think less people would do it, yeah.
