Dentists have a high suicide rate. But, they make a lot of money.
Dentists have to put their hands in peoples mouths. But they make a lot of money.
About ten years ago, my dentist told me that he would never let his son (then in college) go into dentistry. He said it’s all about battling with insurance companies now.
My dentist is a superb medical professional, an artist and a proud master craftsman as well as a caring and personable caregiver. He is nearing retirement, and I don’t expect to find another like him.

I have few good friends who are dentists. You have to really want it! One friend said he decided to be a dentist when he watched “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer!”
Being a good dentist doesn’t always mean you will make a lot of money. The friend who is doing the best didn’t start doing so well until he married his current wife. She has great business savvy and has made his office really successful. They are getting ready to open another office soon. They hire dentists who are expert specialists to rotate through their offices.
You can get a job if you’re willing to work in the prisons. I think here in California they start at about $180,000 per year. It could be a way to start without a substantial investment and get your student loans paid down.
Little kids hate you, and you always have your hands in people’s mouths.
