yes. i know. i'm talking hourly rates, as in 130/150 dollars per hour. with 12 12 hour shifts a month this lands exactly in the 255-260k range.

most docs work 15 days or so a month to bump this up to 300k.

I'm still interviewing, but it's ranging from 190K per year + up to 10% bonus for an academic position (13 9-10 hour shifts/month) to a community position that is $143 per hour plus bonus that may = $200 hour (suburbs). The norm seems to be $130-$140 per hour for near suburbs. One of our former residents worked in Waukegan making something like $250 an hour as independent contractor, but the pace sounded crazy. 3 - 4 patients per hour.

You can make more $ easier in other states, but it's a great city.

$4, hot hand in game of dice.

Otherwise there is always shaking your moneymaker.
