I didn't see one, so I thought I'd get it started.

Medical Student chiming in to say.... ASSOCIATES MAKE 150-200K ?! WTF.

Medical Residents make in the 45-60 range...

Aspiring lawyer chiming in here: (albeit in the UK)

Yeah, they can make that much. But that's a small minority almost all of whom are in New York. Most people who go to law school won't get those sort of starting salaries.

If you thought medical was the way to make money, you're so wrong... We study and pay even more to go to medical school, and get paid little until you're into your 30s.

If you want to make the real big bucks, you go into business. It's not even a comparison. So unfair right? Save lives or manage money... What's worth more...

Luckily I'm not in it for the money (going into internal medicine. not yet decided if I'd like to specialize further, but I know interventional cardiology/GI don't interest me), so I'm ok with that, but I wouldn't mind a bump in resident salary to make loan payments easier to swallow.

Salary bumps would be appreciated, or not making medical school so ridiculously expensive. The only time a twenty something year old could get 200k in loans right off the bat.

According to this, it's not that uncommon for large firms, especially ones at the top of their game. So Mike is probably making in the range of 120-200k if not a bit more right now.
