That sounds terrible. Instead of having surgeon with decades of experience they retire after 10 years because they have enough. Instead building bridges with experience engineers and construction workers, we can let some kid out of college do it.

That's a strawman and you know it.

How many engineers or surgeons make it to $10M of wealth AT ALL, let alone in a period of time short enough to make expertise itself in short supply? The answer is approximately zero.

i'm an engineer in a neighborhood mostly filled with lawyers and surgeons, i can tell you these people easily have 10M of wealth, and these are all people currently still in family building stages of life. Also adding..if this area lost these people as experienced surgeons there would definitely be issues!
