Surefire moneymaking scheme
Go to a medical conference and hang out in the hotel bar with a deck of cards. Learn where the ATM machine is so you can give directions from the bar. After some of the doctors have had a few rounds, teach them how to play chinese poker.

Re: Surefire moneymaking scheme
Now that you mention it, I have never heard of any doctors being good at playing poker. They've got to be out there, but they seem to be underrepresented in the poker world. Are their any respected 2+2ers who are MD's? Maybe doctors are just too busy, or maybe they all just naturally suck at poker [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Surefire moneymaking scheme
rrrrrrrrrrrrrright. docters are chumps. generally nice but weak. you cannot fail out of most medschools. you can keep taking classes until you pass. there are many, many, dumb, bad doctors. most are smart, granted but not any more so than 2+2ers i'm willing to say.
my experience is that they are aweful at any competition. they ran to the books b/c they needed money and status to feel important. i mean, who would do that job? most are great people i'm sure but that job down right sucks.

Re: Surefire moneymaking scheme
Heh, this is getting OT I guess, but I've certainly found this thread amusing, my entire family are doctors.
But then I'm in the UK and I guess its a bit different in the US, there's not so much emphasis on money here because at best only half the work is private, so its more of a lifestyle choice than anything else (and over here there's no such thing as retakes in medicine). Its interesting what you say about lack of competitiveness, from my experience there doesnt seem to be any difference from any other population group. I would imagine though that when you've had a good life doing a job where people look up to you in it, getting well paid etc. you dont really feel you have to prove anything anymore. Mark
