I mean you can "earn" alot in a year and still be "poor" on paper. However you can earn less and have no debt and be wealthy in realy life.....

You guys have some valid points.....
(1) Drs are HORRIBLE catches unless your looking for a sugar daddy and he wants a trophy wife. It takes more understanding and commitment than most people are prepared to deal with
(2) We don't make a lot and are in debt (from school, not a mercedes)
(3) It is important to love you job. If there was ANYTHING else I could do and be as happy, I would have done it in a second. But, there isn't.

I work for my dad. Don't get paid a whole lot, but my boss is the best in the world (a fact confirmed by others that have worked for him over the years) and the subject matter that I get to deal with on a daily basis is the stuff of dreams for anyone interested in the inner workings of big business or the geo-political landscape that we are faced with today.

I'll never get rich doing this, but I also doubt that I could be much happier than I have been in the last year since I started working with my dad!

I think it sounds cool, but the best part would be working with your dad.....wish I could have done that.

My dad wants me to go back to the UK to take over his company .... I don't want to work for / with him since I want to make my own way in life .... I guess that is just a personal choice though ....

Yep,working with my dad is DEFINITELY the high point. I mean, I get to deal with all kinds of interesting people in my job, but my father is truly my hero and I have learned SO much from him...not to mention simply enjoying the time with him.

As for making my own way, I know what you're saying James. In a sense, I had to decide if I wanted to go back to living in his shadow in order to take advantage of this opportunity. I decided that my ego could take it.

I'm not implying that it makes me somehow better...just that when I looked at where my life was and where I would likely want to go with it, that working for my father was the right move for me to make.

This would make a LOT more sense if you knew the whole story about my relationship with my father and his career as I was growing up...but lets just say that I spent about half my life trying to be my own person so it was a MAJOR step for me to take the chance of walking back into his shadow...
