I'm 24 and while I make a decent amount of money at a job, it doesn't compare to a lawyer or doctor.

No, you'd go and talk to your doctor.

So when you have doctors making babies with lawyers, chances are their baby will succeed in school.

I was able to find a good tenet who was actually the best friend of my neighbor.This tenet and his wife were both doctors with one pre-teen child.They had bought there place at the height of the market and were just wrapping up a short sale.I was able to get them on a 2 year lease at $1600/month with a $1600 deposit and no property management.What a great opportunity (they continue to be absolutely fabulous to this day)!

Ever since I was young, I always had ideas floating around in my head, from being an astronaut, to doctor, to archaeologist etc...

In Tampa, this is where I heard about the doctors and lawyers who made successful practices, ended up.

My personal doctor told me for about 30 years that was impressed with my fitness and that bad thing happened two days I was scheduled for preventive surgery after my chiropractor told me to get an MRI photography of my head.
