"stick to MD, and the AMA will give you a job for life ;-) You'll have time for your spouse, vacation, money for the million dollar house and BMW and pension when you retire. Doctors have it made..... "
If only that was true, but it isn't. Nowadays not every doc is a multimillionaire. Some aren't even millionaires. Most docs stay on in medicine even after they retire whether it be consulting or inspecting hospitals (Joint Commission, etc). They keep learning medicine even after they retire also, it really is a lifelong commitment. I'm sure some stop completely, but if they have spent that much of their life in it, they probably can't just leave it one day. Now for impact to chime in. He will also tell you something similar.
