Q: Greetings 5i Research,
It has been said that it would be easier to turn a Newfoundland fisherman into a top banker than the other way around.
When I graduated in 1965, top dental incomes equaled top Canadian bankers' incomes. Today, top bankers earn more in two weeks than top earning dentists do in one year.
What happened? Was the investment in my education a poor choice?
(Not that anyone should feel sorry for dentists who, as a group, have replaced physicians and surgeons as Canada's top earners.)
Thank you for your well-thought-out answers to all my previous questions.
Milan
