Is A Medical Degree Really Worth What It Costs To Obtain?

Monday, March 29th, 2010

A medical degree comes with it a natural status and earning potential.  But a medical degree also tends to come with exorbitantly high tuition bills.  So is it worth it?  Is a medical degree worth the massive amount of money that you will likely have to pay back once you have earned it?

Wages And Debt

The most common discussion when this topic comes up is one of wages and debt.  It is true that medical students incur astronomical amounts of debt but the high wages that they earn when all is said and done is supposed to make up for that.  Of course, even the high wages that you can earn with a medical degree your debt will take some time to pay off but once you are done you will still be making a lot of money.  Actually, as you gain experience and move forward in your career then you are likely to be making even more.

To pay off these bills as quickly as possible, someone with a medical degree can just continue to live a thrifty lifestyle once they start making the big bucks.  That way all the extra income can go directly to paying off debt so that it will not be a cloud constantly hanging over their head.  But this is only the beginning of the financial discussion.

The Present And The Future

When you talk about the high costs of obtaining a medical degree, you are really talking about temporarily being in a financial state that is less than ideal.  But you have to keep in mind that, assuming you start working and paying off this debt, it is just temporary.  The debt can be paid off and you will still have your medical degree and your new high salary.

If you can stand having a large amount of debt for a while then a medical degree could be worth its cost.  The earning potential continues for the rest of your career and could continue to increase.

Doing What You Love

This is the most important issue.  People can endure a lot to do what they love in life.  This could easily make all the debt worth it.  Keep in mind that the price of a medical degree is often much more than tuition.

A lot of time goes into earning a medical degree, often years of your life.  On top of that it takes an incredible amount of hard work to earn medical degrees.  And while you are putting in all this time and hard work you are sacrificing other parts of your life to earn this degree.  The money is only one price that you pay to achieve this goal.

Is a medical degree really worth what it costs to obtain?  The answer depends on you.  If you love working in the medical field then it can definitely be worth it.  The best things in life usually come at a price.  You just need to figure out what you really want.

How to find your Life Partner in 5 simple steps

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Walk these 5 steps to relationship success.

"Of course I want a life partner you may be saying why else would I read this?" Our society considers it important for women to be in a relationship. There is still a perception in many quarters that a woman without a relationship is unhappy. Our friends and relatives want us to be happy and fulfilled and so encourage us to find a life partner. The media also exerts pressure on women to be part of a couple. Many women have mixed feelings about this, which often shows up in them selecting unavailable partners. This is particularly true where the woman concerned has a history of choosing unavailable men. We all have a right to choose a partner or not choose one. We also have a right to decide when we will choose our life partner. If you are enjoying life as a single and currently have no desire to find a life partner please continue to enjoy your life as a single. Only you can decide when and if to choose a life partner. It’s not a decision to be made in order to please others or because you feel under pressure. Making a decision under these circumstances wouldn’t be right for you or any partner that you choose.

Step 2. Define your life partner.

Whether you want a new pair of shoes, jacket, home or life partner you can’t have it until you define it. If you have any doubts about this imagine the following. You are at the Railway Station and ask for "a ticket " "a ticket to where?" would be the response. "Somewhere nice" you might say or " somewhere where I will be happy". You can imagine the response that you would receive. It would be along these lines " madam, until I know exactly where you want to go I can’t provide you with a ticket" It’s exactly the same with a life partner we have to have a clear picture of him before we can find him. "What do I mean by a clear picture?" you may be asking. You need to know what kind of man you want to share your life with and what kind of life you want the two of you to share. Your answer to those two questions will be as individual as you are. For example I am an animal lover and would not have chosen a partner who disliked or was indifferent to animals. Here are some headings to help you identify your ideal man. His looks, height, build, hair colour, eye colour etc? His personality outgoing, quiet, demonstrative, sporty whatever appeals to you? His lifestyle, what kind of work he does, home he lives in, car he drives, how he spends his spare time? Of course finding a life partner isn’t like ordering a take away pizza you may not get all that you desire. The important thing is to know on what you will and will not compromise. For example you might think "I can live with some untidiness but not a man who can’t get on with my parents" Or " I’ll watch football every Saturday for the right man but he has to be someone who takes my opinions seriously". It is also important to visualise your shared future, the type of life that you would live together.

Step 3. Get pro-active.

It’s only in fairy stories that the handsome prince beats a path to our door. In reality we have to make an effort to find him. This means getting out and about and being in situations where you will meet males. This may seem obvious. Many women who don’t have time to socialise due to work or domestic responsibilities have problems in finding a life partner. If you are in this situation there is a technique’ which is perfect for you. Its called "random and specific search". Even if you have lots of time to socialise I would still recommend that you use it. Most women only look out for their ideal man when they are in social situations. In reality attractive available men are around all the time. Just like you they travel to work on the train, walk their dog, go to the supermarket, attend evening classes, take their Mother out to dinner, they may even use a unisex hairdresser. I am not suggesting that you give your home number to every attractive man you exchange a few words with in the park or supermarket. Begin by being aware that attractive available men some of whom you would certainly like to know better surround you. Situations with an ongoing element are particularly useful for example evening classes or interest groups. These will allow you to meet, talk with and observe the behaviour of potential partners in a number of situations. I’ve just described the random element of random and specific search. The specific element is fairly self-explanatory. For example my friend’s elder sister was happily married to a Greek man. She wanted to follow in her footsteps and visited Greece as often as her budget would allow, ate in Greek restaurants and learnt Greek dance.

Step 4. Qualify potential partners

When you apply to work for a company you go through a qualification process. That process normally begins with completing an application form and/or submitting your CV. If you are successful at this stage you then attend one or more interviews before being hired for a trial period. In choosing someone to do work on your home or garden you would probably ask friends and neighbours if there was someone that they could recommend. You might enquire about what trade associations your prospective gardener or builder belonged to. Or ask to see some work that they had already completed. Most women do more research to find a good gardener or builder than a Life Partner. In seeking a life partner you are offering and applying for the most important position possible. So it’s important to go through a qualifying process rather like that mentioned above. Not doing so means that you could waste months or even years with someone who never makes the commitment to being your partner. Dates are a little like life partner interviews although of course much more fun. Using the insights of psychology it’s simple to know quickly, within one or two dates if a particular man is life partner materiel as far as you are concerned. Top tip don’t observe how he treats you on dates but how he treats others. Any man on a date with you will be out to impress you so he will obviously be pleasant to you. If he isn’t he has immediately disqualified himself as your future life partner. Observe how he treats your waitress or taxi driver; someone who isn’t important to him and you will see his true personality.

Step 5. Overcome obstacles

These come in two forms. If he is attrcative to you he will be attractive to other women. You can’t stop this and in a way you wouldn’t want to. After all they are complimenting you on your choice. Using the insights of psychology can give a number of ways to ensure he chooses you. Space only permits me to share one tip here. It’s this- recognise his individuality. Modern society can make us feel like numbers rather than the unique individuals which we are. It’s important to let him see that to you he is a unique and very special individual. Secondly, most women reading this will probably have had some negative relationship experiences in the past. Psychologists know that our perspective is greatly influenced by our past experiences. We expect the things that happened in the past to happen again. Yet there is no logical reason why they should. Your new man isn’t the one who cheated on you in the past, never showed up on time or saw you as a source of free meals and financial handouts. So you are both starting out with a clean slate in this relationship So now you are ready to walk the five steps to relationship success. Don’t just think about it. Do it, you’ll be glad that you did.
