You won't make us much as you'd like because Ob?Gyns are being targeted for malpractice insurance....the insurance for Ob/Gybns (and neurosurgeons) has and continues to go through the roof.
To be an ob, you need to do 4 years of college or more until you complete a bachelor's degree. You then need to go to med school for 4 years. After that, you will do 4+ years of residency/internship to specialize in ob/gyn.

Once you get done with all that, you can practice on your own, but many ob/gyns have already left the profession because the malpractice insurance is too expensive. They are also frequently sued. Many ob/gyns have had to leave certain states, like Florida, where the cost of insurance was ridiculous. It is not a recommended field to go into anymore.

#1FINISH HIGH SCHOOL
#2 GET A 4 YEAR UNIVERSITY DEGREE
#3 GO TO MEDICAL SCHOOL FOR 4 YEARS AND GRADUATE.
#4 COMPLETE A RESIDENCY PROGRAM AFTER OF 3 OR 4 YEARS
AND IF YOU CAN DO ALL THIS AND INVEST TIME AND MONEY YOU MAY BE AN OB/GYN. GOOD LUCK.
IF YOUR ONLY MOTIVATION IS $, LOOK FOR SOMETHING ELSE.

You need to attend college for 4 years, medical school another 4 and then training for 4-5 years. They can make good money but the malpractice insurance is very expensive
