Yeah....that's my degree also. Aweful.

Although, I'm hoping to do some research on dental implants or prosthesis so hopefully it'll help me.

But I'd end up getting tired of being an engineer and probably end up in teaching HS science (physics or physiology).

Don't get your hopes up. You won't be the first. I think it's actually common for dentists to play in local groups...the common thread in addition to being dentists is that they all think they're WAY better than they are....from what I've had the pleasure of seeing.

So you should go out with some real talent and suprise everyone.

you know i remember listening to the arrow once (before it became Jack FM...if you're in socal you'll know what i'm talking about), and some dj was saying that his dentist gave him a demo to play on the radio...it was actually pretty decent. the difference between these "local groups" and me is, well, i'm actually gonna make it. you just watch...haha
 
I would go back into the porn industry. Some serious money to be made yet there. 👍
 
I would have become a hobo to live out my dream of riding the rails.
 
I'd be an investment banker since every one of them earns billions of dollars a year and it's way easy and everyone can do it and you get rich and did I mention they make billions a year? It's true, I heard it on SDN.


😉
 
I would be an orthopedist and work with athletes.
 
I'd be a veterinarian...did I spell that right? I'm a little loopy from the pain killers from jaw surgery...forgive me 🙂
 
Probably would of went to med school if some odd reason i didn't get into dental school...
 
i would have studied political sciences and law- i don't know what i would have as a career,though - i neither want to be a politician nor a lawyer

But then i have days where i am no longer sure i want to be a dentist 😀

Not a dream my friend, already done. Ever heard of the Guf's out of chicago(or maybe they are from milwuakee and met in d-school in chicago)? Google them and the word "dentists".

Kinda a cult rock band during the 90's. I know that dates me but they were hell a fun to see at summerfest every year.

I have been living my plan B for years (telecom industry...😴 ). I finally grew some stones and went for it. And now, I can happily direct your attention to my plan A (signature below).

And as Austin Powers would say:....Yea, baby! 😎
 
I would of probably done medicine....that or become a Gas station attendant...it's a toss up.

You know, it is true, everyone says i-banking is the easy road to wealth, if it is that easy, how come everyone doesn't do it. I mean is it that easy to just get into i-banking, and does everyone who does go in it get rich fast. I find it hard to believe...

From what I hear, it is very competitive to climb the ladder in I-banking. Only those at the top are the ones making millions.

I think criminal forensics would have been a cool plan B.
