It feels good to be the best in your field 6AM-7PM (10 min to work) not much more than most when they commute Took 2 months vacation a year :out of state or more often out of country medical school and residency was 70-110 hrs a week so 70 is not bad Got 3 undergraduate degrees and 2 course from a fourth undergraduate degree in 5 years (270 credits)without a sweat.Also have two specialties in medicine Work feels like playing Bridge or Poker:You make a decision and cant wait to follow up on outcome.Patients love you,families a pain in the ass but if you know what you are doing even they stand back.Nurses love you,they are sacrificial people.If you help them and care for the ones they sacrifice for, their respect is every thing--.they also know who knows what they are doing I wanted to retire early as their are many things to do in life Wife stayed home with kids 4 children and many more I directly supported Kept many working in Brazil in the darkest of times In medicine it doesnt matter your creativity or frontal lobe abilities while cramming data/facts into your brain for 6-8 years in training.Then you reach the cutting edge and see what others never saw and do what others never did.One has to stick around a while and enjoy Gave 10% of income a year to charity.While working in public health in the interior of Brazil decided that I would do more for others this way and utilize all my skills at the same time (had planed to specialize in tropical medicine) I do 2 or 3 things at a time.Work--post--read-joke-laugh.Many things happened in those 70 hours Brazilian real estate was being given away.I owed it to my kids and many others to partake.I could have quit earlier. To summarize,we are for the most part capable of great things.I feel most dont accomplish 20% of what they could.I refuse to be part of the bread and circus crowd.On the other hand, some of the 1% have awoken (most late in life) to do great things but many others are not that smart,not hard working and offer little to society.I prefer to be productive.International economics and welfare economics are my hobby.I know we need a better safety net,but fear we head toward a bread and circus nation with a dishonest,unproductive elite.I can only do my part.I have many plans for the future and am working on a book in my field..I have raised my children knowing that I worked hard for them so they would not need to work so hard, but made it clear that their money and freedom is so they can do great things,take great chances. Two teens and two just out of teen years,not a problem yet
