can you lower the ocean with a spoon?by paying dues (no login)To whom it may concern: I might join the podiatry organizations when I am no longer paying 2Gs per month in student loan payments. Since the old guard paid probably a 3rd of what I did in tuition (even in inflation adjusted dollars) I still think that I can rightfully say I am "paying my dues" Besides, I think that it is naive to believe that we can really change medicare policy on a long term policy. The writing is on the wall so why worry about it and why waste money "protecting our turf". Here it is for those of you who can't see it. More medicare receipients = more medicare spending = more cost cutting = lower reimbursements or cutting (sniding) of our services. Smell the coffee and figure out how you are going to make a living when medicine in this county is fully socialized. I am told that in England, docs only make 80K us dollars /year. Could you live on that with your student loans? The answer: get off your keister and start reading books about investments /financial planning etc. from IP address 67.22.112.164 Goto Forum Home |
