I was talking to a scribe the other day who wants to go to medical school. I asked her whether I could convince her not to go to med school...and she said "try me." So I postulated the following scenario:
Prior to going to medical school you have the option of accepting a fully taxable annuity that pays you $200,000 / year for the next 50 years of your life. The only condition behind this is you cannot go to school to become an MD or DO. You can do anything else with your life. If you want to go into health care, you can be a nurse, admin, PA, etc. You just cannot become an MD or DO.
Much to my surprise she told me she would go to medical school. I told her that I bet 85-90% of all practicing doctors would accept the annuity.
