Do you know what the median salary for a physician is in the USA?
It's far more than what is necessary to feed a family of forty :-)

You just proved yourself the consummate village idiot. Physician's in
the USA average about $140K/year after costs.

Do you think that's enough to feed a family of forty ?:-)

Jeez Jim, you're getting slow! He stated "median" salary, then,
compares it with "average" salary. Who knows what definition of
"median" was used in Bob's reported statistic. Stadistics can be a
dangerous tool. BTW, in some countries, 140k could feed a family of 40
or more.

What's with the Canadian $ being on par with the US$ these days.
That's making my vacation more expensive!. Lousy US currency!
