my friend and i were having a discussion on what we hope to become one day. i told her i want to be a dentist, ultimately an orthodontist, and she told me she wants to be a lawyer. i didn't bring up a single thing after that, but of course, she had to go and bring up salary issues.
i most definitely am not becoming a dentist solely for the money. i really am doing it for the benefit of others (i get teary eyed when patients undergo smile reconstruction on extreme makeover, i really do! lol), but considering all the time spent learning and studying and staying in school - i believe the money is definitely something to like, as well.
to me it's obvious she's going in law for the money, just the way she talks about it. she said lawyers make more than dentists.
it's not a big deal to me, but it's got me wondering now. who really makes more money, lawyers or dentists?
