Adult = $2000 - $3000 and is passive so mainstream must be what? $6000 - $12000?
Why go to med school to make the same as you do now? Makes no sense. Why wouldn't you apply yourself and make that income into $40K a month and not have med school loans/tuition?
Somewhere in here I smell bullshit!

I'm not going to med school for the money, I'm going to med school because the field genuinely interests me. And aside from the field being quite interesting, it also involves something that working online tends to lack: social interaction. Which is rather important if, like me, you're not exactly great at meeting new people.
I just came back from the dorm room of the 21 year old girl I spent the night with, and am about to start reading up on the pathogenicity of specific mutations in a few mismatch repair genes that are associated with Lynch syndrome.
To me, this is heaven.
Since cars, houses and clothes don't interest me, the only thing I've ever liked about doing business online is the game behind it. I love finding and exploring new business opportunities, just like I loved finding new solutions to problems when I worked as a programmer and loved finding new argumentations for theories when I studied philosophy.
But since I was always pretty good at the game behind online business, after a while it got a bit boring. Meanwhile, the lack of social interaction meant that I started living like a recluse. No amount of money is worth wasting your life on - you can't spend your money when you're dead, and you can't buy youth.
I'm in a position to study something that completely fascinates me while being able to interact with lots of interesting people. Why would I choose a bit of money over that?
