Hi,
I'll try my best to keep this thread and question concise...
Considering the personal sacrifices and quantity of time the average US physician puts into his/her career, the money a doctor earns is a joke. However, the world is also unfair. Hard work and dedication will only bring you this far in terms of money (150-750k a year as a physician, no other field guarantees you this relatively speaking). Nobody can deny that those that earn more than 1M+ a year have had luck play the biggest role in their path to get there (A-star actors, the guy who made Minecraft working 5-7 hours/week on it during college and sold it to Microsoft for 2,5 billion USD, 5M+ starting salaries for even the weakest in the elite sport world etc.). Now that we've established that luck plays the biggest factor in reaching those higher numbers, let's start with the question:
What side-hustle should a physician spend time on to maximize the chance of obtaining a net worth of 50m+ USD net worth before the age of 50? Could it flat out be the lottery? Would a lottery ticket giving you the jackpot of 50m+ USD be more likely to obtain than having a specific high-risk investment (business, investing in startups etc.) give that? Could it be to buy and run gas-stations? Sell nutritional supplements?
Safe investing for a physician earning 300k a year would only yield a net worth of 5-6 million USD by the age of 65. And that is a joke in my eyes considering the journey. But that's not what this thread is about. I want to know that side-hustle bears the highest chance to yield the desired net worth of 50m+ USD.
