But yeah, you're not earning a decent wage until you make those 11 years!
That's a crock. Four of those years vqc is doing regardless - he's already in undergrad and it doesn't sound like he is dropping out. So he's looking at four more years of school and 3+ years for residency. Residents, however, are paid. They aren't paid well, but they are paid. And after residency you are looking at 6 figures easy. My wife is in her third year - I am hoping to retire once she starts bringing home teh bacon.
