DOCTORS The Medical Association of Hartford County, Connecticut, has made a survey of the financial condition of doctors - at the end of their years of service in medicine. In Hartford County, between Nineteen Forty and Nineteen Fifty-three, the estates or one hundred and forty-tour doctors went into the Probate Court. One-third -- leaving lesa than ten thousand dollars. Thirteen per cent ot the physicians - bankrupt at the end or their careers. one single physician - able to make a million out or his practice. Just one who rolled up a million. I wonder how he did it? Conclusion - the doctor seldom gets rich. 'lo which, I for one, can say - amen ~ My father was a doctor in that · famed gold camp - Cripple Creek - where I grew up. He practiced medicine for years in an ancient crater full of gold - treasure on alJ. aides - gold squandered by the miners too. Yet, the doctor never got rich. The usual piled up heaps of unpaid doctor bills. But tha •s ae old as medical history. An M.D. degree not the way - to the proverbial million.
