Josh1000:


They are highly trained Professional and have fellowships in Surgery
.

The smartest doctors I have seen are Anesthesiologists. By a mile. Not neurosurgeons (though very meticulous & manually superb) or cardiothoracic surgeons as one would expect.

Their knowledge of the human body, physiology and pharmacology is encyclopedic. Some of the best teachers I have ever had.

By the way, even in the last minute, an anesthesiologist can declare a patient unfit for surgery. And the surgeon can do nothing about it.

Also, most deaths during surgery happen due to problems with anesthesia, not necessarily bleeding as a lot of people think, except where obvious accidents/injuries with considerable blood loss is involved.

Re: Highest Paying Jobs In The World by GentleFrank(m): 11:08am On Apr 13, 2015
Nice information ! But I believe these must have been drawn up from the average measurements and judgements as well. If you ask me, I will tell you that not job is greater than the other. I am Accountant for instance but so far, I have seen so many. Tertiary Institution raduates with B.A in English Language who earn far more than I do on monthly basis. Not only that, it is also quite obvious all over the world that many professionals in the aforementioned disciplines by the OP are presently either unemployed or under-employed below the average/standard pay due for their services. Thus, this had led me to a very difficult but deserved conclusion that nowadays, financial success is ideally measured in terms of how productive, creative, innovative and knowledgeable people are. That is what I call entrepreneurship !

Financial Independency and buoyancy is the latest trend and revolution all over the world today. That is why I will so much cherish and embrace entrepreneurship for the rest of my life. It is always better for you to start your own business and become a boss of your own instead of staying in a job that pays you millions monthly. Yes, I know what I am talking about. Work for yourself and your future generations and not for people. I am an Accountant by profession but I have many other streams of income through which I make money for myself. It is all about creativity, productivity and innovation.

My unreserved and ever-growing passion for entrepreneurship led me into the creation of the great entrepreneurial blog http://www.BusinessParrot.com where I share my vast business ideas, plans, guides, models and tips for people to read, implement and attain their financial freedom and success in no distant time. Over 1000+ profitable business ideas which you can start with very little or no capital are waiting for you on the platform free of charge. Read them, put them into practice and start making a lot of money for yourself every day. You can even be an employer of labour as soon as possible. Join the fight against poverty in the whole world. Be the true agent of change !

So if you need the best profitable, practicable and lucrative business ideas as well as a sordid appraisal of various investment opportunities, do not hesitate to grab them all at http://www.BusinessParrot.com - a platform where I embelish my vast knowledge and experience about buisness and other miscellaneous entrepreneurial tips and strategies.

Cheers for your success is already at hand !!!
