One of my best friends from school studied medicine and he's now the same age as me (35) and is only just starting to reap the monetary benefits now that he's a neuro-surgeon when I've been coining it in IT since I left uni :) For my friends' first 5-10 years as a qualified doctor he was earning so little it was shocking really. Here's someone who was saving lives daily getting paid per year what I was getting paid every couple of months for helping to make some rich banks a bit richer :rolleyes: Michael.
