Anonymity is a bit different than telling someone to their face that I make way more than they ever will.

Don’t get all butthurt because an MBA doesn’t teach critical thinking.

Of course I want more, who wouldn’t? I want a Tesla. I want a larger house. I want to own businesses. I want to help develop future technologies.

Now you’re stalking me? You’re fucked up. You need psychiatric help if some random person on the internet can get under your skin to such a degree.

Well, thank you for proving me right. That’s probably why you’re just an MBA.

Ask your doctor what residency was like.

I’m not a victim. I’m highly successful, I don’t claim to be a victim for a second.

And considering I’m in the US, it seems apropos.

Now, I go to the gym maybe once or twice a week. I end up eating late when it’s during the week. Not so much on the weekend.

I would kill to work as in-house council. However, they typically won’t hire you without 4-7 years of experience.

Wow, so grown up of you.

Yes, in the US, medical school costs a lot of money, even public medical school. Most US doctors who are in residency have debt that can be up to half a million.

The one making several hundred thousand dollars a year and employ people like you.

Yes, debt, her debt (fucking 6.8% before I refinanced it down to 3.43%) is the bane of my existence. It’s around $175,000 right now. We’re throwing as much money as we can. Instead of paying extra money towards principal, since our loan is under 4%, we put extra money in a brokerage account in hopes of making more…

Nope, as I said 10 - 14, as professionals. As in, if I don’t work at least 10, I’d probably be fired.

You understand I haven’t once engaged in ad hominem. I have a feeling you don’t actually know what that phrase means.

You understand getting up earlier requires going to bed earlier, right? Getting up earlier doesn’t magically endow the day with an extra hour.

Yeah, I’m a lawyer. I look to the actual definition, not the one just thrown around. Under the law (FLSA) professional has a very specific meaning. That is the one I use.

We live in upstate NY where I think the median is somewhere in the mid $40,000’s to low $50,000’s. So, our current income dwarfs that.

In those with professional degrees who aren’t protected by unions (read: all but teachers for the most part).
