who makes more money, Lawyers or Pshchyatrist?

Answer 1

Lawyers by far. They can "earn" their way up to $400 plus on billable hours.
Psychiatrists have to deal w/ Medicare which cuts their fee by roughly 50%. My psychiatrist charges $60 for a 20 minute med check and about $120 for a 50 minute session. My clinical psychologist on the other hand gets $150 per hour. This is for a medium sized city.
You asked about money. Who gets paid most is a different question. Saving a child for ADDH or my life from suicide gets a great deal more.

Answer 2

Really, in the long run, it will depend on how good their practice is.
