I'm a physician. $294k is my base salary from the hospital, but I do a lot of locum tenens work on my days off in underserved parts of the state to supplement my income ($197k). $24k is from dividends. Most of my capital gains are unrealized; I'm a buy and hold vanguard ETF kinda guy, but I mess around with random stocks from time to time.
Just spent way too many days at the hospital and was wondering what the doctors made. I thought many of the doctors were around high 100s to mid 200s. However, I hear CA pays very poorly compared to other states. One radiologist mentioned his classmates getting offers nearly twice as much in Texas as he was in CA. Which specialty?
