You can make 350k/year doing photography?Completely agree--very sage advice. I make almost as much with my 3 other non-EM jobs (photography, short-term rentals, and Army National Guard) as I do in EM and they all provide some level of satisfaction in different ways.
To the person who asked about alternative careers, I think it deserves its own thread but I'd be a full time photographer. I could probably make my physician salary with it (you'd be surprised when you position it as a luxury brand) but I also like the security/stability of medicine along with other things like insurance, pension (i.e. multi-million payout or really nice annuity in our system), matching retirement contribution, CME account, etc.
