on msn.com, they have an article for the 9 best careers. health care was the first thing listed...
After all that, new doctors may look forward to a 60-hours-plus workweek. For surgeons, this is particularly intense, as it involves standing for long periods of time to do extremely delicate work. This truly is a case where you must love what you do. Doctors must be compassionate, dedicated, and responsible, with a lifelong love of learning. After all, you'll be required to learn and update your skills for the rest of your career. That $190,000 sounds pretty fair, wouldn't you say?
Dentists, however, have the distinction of being the only health care professionals on that list who work, on average, fewer than 40 hours per week. Yet they continue earning between $85,000 and $120,000 per year, according to the BLS. The other bonus? A whole lot less time in school. Most dentists complete a bachelor's degree, four years in dental school, and a licensing exam.
woooo 😀
