    Yeah.. anesthesiologists.. that’s some serious stuff right there. I knew a guy who aspired to become one. I can guarantee you he isn’t one today. It’s just, I don’t think he had the chops for it, just wanted to do it for the money. Never ever go out and do something of that caliber just for the money…
