Ah I expected a response like that - someone pretending they are high and mighty and only went into medicine for medicines sake. The truth is, if medicine was considered a service job and the salary was around 70K the vast majority of people on this board wouldn't even be applying. It's not "all about the money" as you say...but money is an important consideration with any career choice, otherwise you're just plain dumb. For me, healthcare is what I love doing, and I can't figure out if I should do it as a CRNA or a DO because of a variety of confounding variables, yes, including money. I'm asking for advice, not some completely out of line and off base judgement, so please don't post if you want this thread to devolve into that. How you decided I was 'grumpy' based on my question is quite the mystery though.
