Of the 20 highest-paid professions, only one is not a doctor (or dentist)
This is crazy to me. In the quest to find decent career options in the new world order of AI, it would seem that one could do a lot worse than becoming a doctor.
>Some medical specialties are eye-poppingly well-paid. Here are some top salaries for doctors in their peak earning years, ages 40 to 55, according to the researchers. The figures date to 2017, so they may be higher now:
- Neurosurgery: $920,500
- Orthopedic surgery: $788,600
- Dermatology: $655,200
- Cardiac surgery: $607,300
- Ophthalmology: $597,000
