US medfag here. I matched into dermatology this week. That means, after another 4 years of training (during which I will be making only $55K/year), I will start making ~$400,000/year. I can't even imagine what that kind of money feels like. My parents made like $70-100K combined growing up. My wife currently makes $55K/year for us. What can we expect?

Okay, I covered some of the basics here for you OP.
So 220,000,debt*(55k*4,income)=220,000. The 220k income will likely be taxed at a minimum of 32.72% leaving you with a post tax net income of $148,016.
That leaves you at -$71,984 at the end of those 4 years if you continue on your current path. If you continue on that path and do pull $400,000 per year after training. That means in year 1 you would have an assumed income of $216,000 after taxes (35% Federal and 11% local), giving you a net of $144,016, with debt being paid off. Year 2 income would be the same, $216,000, giving you a net of $360,016 by the end of year two.

Let’s assume you could have gotten a job paying $18 an hour (national average is $23.96) instead of schooling for those 4 years. That means you have $18/hr*40hrs/wk*52wks/yr*4yrs=$149,760. $149,760*25.65% tax rate gives you a net positive of $111,346.56 at the end of the 4 years. Now let’s assume at 4 years in you made the national average of $23.96, that would give you about $49,836.8-29.37% of that equaling about $35,199.73. This would give you an assumed net worth of $146,546.29 by the end of year one. By the end of year two it would be about $181,746.02.

>2 forms of birth control

jesus christ you are even more of a monster than I thought. I was talking about male sperm defects anyway. How can you even give teratogens to females in this day and age, they just need another excuse to kill their child. It does enough harm to the patient let alone their offspring

>> No.17962675

I should state that by year 1 in the second circumstance means the proposed year 1 AFTER what would have been schooling. It would actually be year 5, then 6.
Anywho, what we can see here is that it took you a full 5 years minimum to outpace your costs incurred vs other opportunities, but you must also understand that jobs are disappearing left and right. So wages can fall a whole 5-16% minimally. Competition is growing, birthrates are dropping, so a contraction is definitely happening before your eyes, and is still unfolding to this day. On top of that, the hours vested into the schooling etc. would likely be maybe 35% more than just working 8 hours a day 5 days a week. This is assumed of course. Meaning your actual year two for the first option would be far less with regards to opportunity cost. So OP, you tell me. Which is better? (Keep in mind $100 today is worth more than $100 tomorrow) So if your money was invested in circumstance 2, at 11% growth per year, you need to factor that in as well.

I should also add in that people that count other people's incomes as their own are actually the most socialistic, childish people I have ever met. instead of outpacing at year 5 or year 6 it may actually be 75% greater than that. Grow up dude.
