Who makes more, a corporate attorney or pediatrician?

Question

Also please factor in that the attorney went to either Stanford or Berkeley law school while the pediatrician went to UCLA medical school if possible.

Answer 1

Corporate attorney, for sure. Pediatricians are being limited by HMOs and medicare. Their educational expenses are extremely high and they spend years paying back the loans from colleges.

The same is true for corporate attorneys. But whether a doctor is good or not, they are still limited. Talent may make no difference, unless they become famous. A corporate attorney works very hard for a living, but the money is good if he/she is a good attorney. There are promotions, you get better cases if you are good, there can be international travel and many perks.

But a pediatrician can probably go home to his family and be involved with his children. He/she makes a decent living. I think the attorney has less time to be a good husband or dad. Not everything is about money, or course. Good luck!
