You people have yet to understand how salary jobs work in north america... They DONT make you rich >99.9% of the time. They could open the door to being rich thorugh investments and such.. but by the time taxes.. fees.. insurance.. mortgage... etc etc take tears out of your pay check... you're not left with much to actually live in great luxury...
Something else people here dont realize...
your typical business graduate will NOT be making as much as a pharmacist... EVER.
Number of business grads = record setting
Number of jobs offering 100k and opportunity for huge bonuses/salary growth = Not many
Good luck to anyone who thinks otherwise...
And I find it funny at how anyone would rather... start at 40k a year... climb by 3-4k a year (being generous with that) up to 100k and then continue growing from there on and make more than a pharmacist does in their late 40s/early 50s... lolz...
Meanwhile.. a 24 year old pharmacist could have bought a house very early.. gotten into some smart investments... profited from their real estate investment... and made a lot more than just their 120k/year...
Also, business grads nowadays who are hoping to be making 100k at any time... will be working harder than any pharmacist does to get there...
I havent factored in student loans... but here in Canada.. tuition is 12-13k per year
and if parents pay a good amount + education funds... Well then 20-30k student loans.. big whoop
Moral of the story: If you'd gone into business, you would never become a CEO. lol
