How could you not look at money and say it is not a factor? I could provide for my future family with little money, but I want what is best for them. If I pick a job that offers a high income, I could set up my children to have a successful life. Dentistry has a median salary of 146,340 dollars (“Dentist: Salary”). That is a good chunk of money. Owning my own practice, which I plan on doing, pays even better(“Dentist: Salary”). In business, however, the median starting salary is only 55,600 dollars (“Class of 2014”). In terms of income, dentistry would provide me immediate financial stability. The only downfall financially would be paying for 4 more years of an expensive graduate dental program. On average, a dental student graduates with 247,227 dollars of debt (“Federal Student Loans”). That is a lot of debt, but I already have my first four years paid for through my generous grandmother. If I am smart with my money, I can handle the amount of debt that I will accumulate if I go to dental
