Isn't the 420k min partly to compensate for the amount of responsibility and liability, thus stress, if anything goes wrong?

Not to mention the student loans (/r/personalfinance is littered with doctors trying to figure out how to pay off their $300k student loan tab in anything less than a decade) and the decade+ of opportunity cost and lost income from those working years.

Most doctors make very good money, don't get me wrong. And most anesthesiologists make good money compared to other doctors. But there are much, much easier and less risky ways to achieve nearly the same standard of living and financial security.

I'd be curious what those ways are?
