Let me just get this straight out of the way: This isn't me asking for someone else to make my life choices for me, I'm ultimately responsible for my own future.
I'm a second year med student (UK) on a nice cushy career path that leads to a sweet job making £XXX,XXX after a few years of practice.
I'd just like some insight from anyone who's been/is in a similar position to me (''vocational'' jobs, i.e. medicine, law etc), about whether it's worth sticking out the remaining few years and getting some juicy credentials, experience, connections and exposure (my lovely mind rationalising why I should stay) and then pursuing a fastlane enterprise with start-up capital from my garaunteed job, or would it be more 'fastlane' to aggressively focus on something entrepreneurial now and sideline my medical career?
My end-goal is the same of course, financial freedom. However I've thought about it a crap-tonne and I keep rationalising this and that. Would just like some fresh perspective from anyone really as to whether it's more beneficial to have a useful degree, life experience and some money behind me when I make the plunge.
Would be eternally grateful for some helpful responses.
