specializations...what kind of doctor to become at the very end

<p>What specialty makes the most money?
A recent medical school seminar near my home reported that spine orthopedics(orthepedic specialty + fellowship specialization (2-3 years more)) makes $501k average!!!</p>

<p>Is this true!!! That is a ridiculous amount of cash. With a minor in finance at a good university, you can be looking at a 600k-700k income a year.</p>

<p>How many spines needs to be fixed a week? lol.
Lifestyle must be manageable because i simply cannot imagine some 50 people needing their spine detached, attached, or whatever a week. lol</p>
