You may change your tune someday. It's not that $200,000 isn't a hefty amount of money, it's that new attending physicians often find themselves jammed between a peculiar set of circumstances: (1) delay, (2) debt, and (3) expectations.
Delay references the fact that you have suffered and sacrificed for many years and feel that you deserve to live in a decent house, with decent furniture, in a decent neighborhood, send your kids to decent schools, and drive a decent car, often with zero down. You also need to jumpstart saving for retirement (for which you're way behind) and funding 529 plans. Oh, and your spouse wants to stay at home and raise the kids. This will soak up a large amount of your cash flow.
Debt is self explanatory.
Expectations references the insidious habit of people to compare their lifestyles to those of their peers. This is in part what makes delaying gratification so tough. When you feel that all the physicians you interact with are effortlessly buying things, taking vacations, and sending their kids to private school, it get's really tough to stay in the one bedroom apartment above the bowling alley.
Put it all together and you can start to get an idea of how a disturbing number of docs end up scraping by on a quarter million a year.
