Why are you concerned about the future of physician pay?
Definitely no increases. Status quo is the best we can hope for IMO.

Despite 15+ years of the contrary?
Definitely not in my field.
Medicine will probably get socialized, salaries will probably decrease around maybe 1/3, tuition debt may be covered
So yeah, future doctors will probably be making less than they do now... why do you think foreign doctors move mountains to practice here

You better be damned concerned. Doctors should learn how to argue against socialized medicine and organize for free market reform. But instead they’re doInfo the opposite, degenerating into a group of pressure groups lobbying for shortsighted goals, like keeping midlevels off their turf, at others’ expense. Hope they enjoy what’s coming.

You minimize your risk diversifying and leveraging your medical degree and skill set. There are plenty of additional options that can add extra revenue depending on your specialty. Locums is an example. Acting as a consultant is another. Leverage your income with investments. Also make sure to continue refining your financial literacy.
Put in the work and you have very little to worry about.
