Hey guys, I know this may seem like a stupid question and you might be thinking "well, if you even have to ask this question, its probably not your passion and is not worth it." But, I DO want to become a doctor, however, ONLY as a back up if my main goal does not work out.
I am putting my med school plans on hold for a year or two to pursue my passion. I will not talk about what my number 1 goal and what my #1 dream in life is, because I'd probably get laughed at and you would think I am out of mind.
So my question to you guys: if something happens (lack of motivation/passion, etc) and I decide to stop pursuing my main goal should I even consider med school? I am already in over 50K debt due to college, so if I do go the med school route, I am looking at 200k-300k, easily. I have a passion in health, fitness, and alternative medicine. I am never going to be handing out pharmaceutical prescriptions or be working in a clinic. I would be doing something along the lines of like Dr. Mercola.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
