I just want to say, I never read her blog. Too busy. But as someone who complains about my own career, and a person who knows 95% of people complain about their careers, I'm not surprised. Where I live there was just an article on 10 worst college degrees in terms of making money, and psychology was on there. I know people who work for 30k a year in psychology with college degrees and certifications. I'm sure to piss people off no matter what I say, but that's not a lot of money, statistically, for a job you need to pay four years of college minimum for. And most of the therapists need masters degrees, there's another 100k down the tubes before you even start working. Anyways, the psychiatrists in contrast rake it in. I bet my psychiatrist is probably loaded, and they have an easy job as far as I can tell, talk to people for 10 minutes and bill $200. In the US though you are pretty hard up unless you're in the top 5-1%.
