Hey
Newbie on the board!
I'm an undergrad right now, and I was having a chat with one of my profs (who is a bit cranky at the best of times) and we were talking about the subject of Psychology. I can't remember exactly how we got on to the subject, but he said that no Psychologist he ever met or knows of (he seems to be well connected) is a millionaire.
I figured I would see it as a alittle challenge and tried searching google for millionaire psychologist (and various variations). I came up with almost nothing. There was maybe one link that confirmed there existed a millionaire psychologist years ago, but now there doens't seem to be any.
I'm wondering if google just ins't picking any up. I know Dr Phil is a multi-millionaire, but even he didn't come up. What gives? Putting in various other careers actually yields wealthy individuals, but not so with anything Psychology. I think that I probably don't know much about the histroy of the field, and maybe some other (far) more educated people can share their experiences and if they have ever found anything that I have searched for.
I have chose this path out of interest, and that comes first. However I like being my own boss, and becoming very wealthy is a top 3 goal for me. It probably creates a bit of a problem as the field is a caring one, but I don't see why it isn't possible.
What are your thoughts?
Thanks.
