Then being doc is like late bloomer group. Have to fill in years and schools time before getting that nice paycheck.

I guess pilot is still the best job to rake in money quick yeh?

YES. Ive only seen one commercial airline Pilot that drives a Myvi. That guy is loaded and has a 1.5M house in Cyberjaya but refuses to buy conti cars like his friends

Pilots have a lot of training requirements too but the pay off is huge. Do your hours, don't duck up, and you can easily earn RM100k a month in your 40s as long as you chose to continue flying (some pilots become lazy and do not fly anymore)

Every thing u said is accurate and I agree with you

They achieve financial freedom early in their life. My late 20s pilot clients all earn 5 figures of RM20+k a month

Sometimes you want to be rich earlier than later. I want to drive my 330i G20 at age of 31, not at 41. Only pilots and oil and gas engineers can afford those at young age, unlikely for other professions

And then there are people like me, but not all insurance agents are making bank; most got conned with their upline BMW and Merc. They cannot juggle work and rejections from prospects. They get recruited then wither away after 3 years.

p/s I haven't recruited agents yet, I bought my new car for myself not to action action to other people. Maybe I will start now. Who wants to becum an insurance agent? PM me. Im no nonsense, I will not train you. You can learn from me by watching me. That's it, no hand-holding

Thank you so much for sharing this. Appreciate it, keep them coming

Why don't most, if not all government based specialist that are not bound to their contracts quit their positions in the GH and make more moolah?

How does MoH retain these specialists, as I am told that the bests are always in government hospitals? Was I misled?

they don't
MoH never bothered to retain these specialists or the potential to be good specialists
that notion that the bests are in gov hosp are only referring to the tip of the iceberg
and these few stayed on generally due to various personal reasons, not for being blindly faithful to the ministry

Sorry I deleted the thread. Draws unwanted attention and there are people (dissatisfied or jealous) that may use to to attack the profession further.

Basically as people said 100k/month is not usually depending on specialty.

I will reply to your second question later. I'm actually just about to go out

Depends on how popular the medical Center and how popular the specialist is.
Lowest I heard of is less than 15k during bad month like during Chinese New Year.
Average in medium-sized town is30-40k for non-surgical based. Surgical based usually double the amount. Popular surgeons easily 150-200k in medium sized cities

Im currently servicing a medical specialist client, last year she was drawing RM9k basic with fixed allowances that brought her total gross monthly income to RM18k

She got into private hospital in the same year and now earns on average 40k a month on a 6-months payment vouchers. Not bad if I can say so myself

They should all leave GH!! laugh.gif

Thanks for sharing. You are right, and I was surprised the person I was talking about only had a "masters".

Are there two pathways to specialization? Masters of medicine and.... Surgeon training? How does a doctor get to become a surgeon?

Medical specialists can just take any external papers like those from uk and so on
Whereas surgical trainings take a very long time, sufferings, as you have to go through proper master programmes. However when u go to private the benefit is u get paid better.

Leaving MOH for money is an obvious choice. Few stay due to job satisfaction in MOH as fussy and difficult patient is more common in private compared to gomen. U can treat patient on what is right, not what the customer / patient wants. U have many subordinates eg. Housemen, medical officers, junior specialist at your beck and call while in private, you are on your own. You deserve to be paid more.
I know surgeons who does only few cases a week MO level cases and earn 50-200k/ mth while consultants in MOH doing few complex cases per day with 4 operating days per week and stuck at earning 15-20k/mth. Gomen are service oriented and not on case basis salaries while private surgeons draw their payment from each cases. You want gomen docs to earn more? Than vote to increase the current rm1-rm5 registration rate to something more lucrative.

Before you can even work private must be bonded to public.

Make sure you ask about how long to work in private before making that kind of money.

And since there is a shortage of placement for doctors, having your own clinic beforehand - or marrying a doctor who does - is a very good idea.

Notice I didn't say anything about love - many people nowadays marry for convenience icon_idea.gif

Many Malaysians are now pursuing medicine due to the perceived good life that they will have in the future, i.e. moving to private sector where they will earn big bucks. Eventhough the situation in the public hospitals are overwhelming, they always convince themselves that once they join the private sector, they will lead a comfortable life raking in big money.

My question I would like to post is, does anyone know how much these specialists can earn in private, like say KPJ or Pantai hospitals? Some say more than RM100k a month, some say reaching RM40k is also considered good. So let's have a discussion on this so that we would have future doctors who enter the profession for passion, not just money per se. Appreciate any input that you guys might have! Thanks smile.gif
