Is that your opinion or do you have any data to support that assertion?

Good point and you're correct. Only 95% of them are in the field for the money, so everything's peachy.

Show me some evidence that supports that claim. Otherwise, all it is is conjecture and opinion.
I disagree

Purely my opinion/observations having many friends and relatives in the medical and insurance fields.

Why didn't they try to become movie stars or rock stars if they're in it for the money?

Cost/benefit analysis.

10-12 years studying medicine, in 10-12 years there are far more careers that would pay out much more with far less risk. Cost/benefit analysis still doesn't answer the question.

Directly from Reddit, I just asked this question;
Medical professionals of Reddit, do you do it for the money or something else?
Did you get started studying your profession because you knew you would make a lot of money, or do you have another main motivation? If so, how much of a role does the amount of money you would make play?
And the first two replies;
My friend recently started working developing pharmasudicals. His new boss asked him, in the interview, why he wants to work there. My friend said, "I know it sounds corny, but I really want to help people." His new boss said "Yeah it does, but I wouldn't hire you if you said anything else."
Medical student here. Nobody goes into it for the money. Nobody. Anyone Type A enough to get accepted to medical school and do well enough to place into one of the more competitive specialties could make twice as much money if they went into something like finance (with none of debt, to boot).

I do it cause it makes me feel good. The money is just a side effect.

Reddit and the inate human ability to stroke one's own ego do not make a valid point imo.

It's safe. Cost/benefit. It's an investment.

not everyone looks at it that way, cost/benifit
i know im mincing words as it is the same thing from different points of view, but some people just dont care about money as much as others
