My boyfriend has high cholesterol at the age of 28 because he was so stressed out going through his school. He did it so that he can provide for his family. My dad did it because he liked medicine and wanted to provide for his family. Both of them deserve all the credit in the world for doing what they have done, and it feels good when you are able to help people I have even had a boyfriend who said that he didn't want to date me because I wanted to be a doctor due to the fact that I would never be home. And doctors don't make millions.... We do want to help people and love medicine, but we wouldn't be doing it if we couldn't make the living that we can because it is just too hard. If it was easy, then everyone would do it.

Well,we need people who want to be doctors.People who enjoy practicing medicine.People who would want to do it regardless of what it paid.If that means identifying them young,and paying for their education in medical school,then that's what we need to do.Then we need to make their jobs less stressful.To be honest,we have a system like this in our education system.It's not teachers fault that people don't take advantage of of what they have to offer.Atleast the teachers are there for the right reason(they like to teach.)Just read some of PGRDN's stuff about his job.He likes his job.He likes to teach.It's not about the money.It's what he would naturally want to do.People who are doctors should find themselves drawn to it for reasons that have nothing to do with money.They should find themselves doing it naturally.Like a singer sings,and a teacher teaches.
