1 day u squeeze 11 to 12 hours max as locum.
1 week also 84 hours max.
do 4 weeks probably burnt out liao.


34 quite young.
Why so gan cheong.
Only 1 life and u want to spend your glorious 30s working no day no night?
Enjoy the ride.
Work normal hours, find a nice girl to romance
Polylinic pharmacy lots of cute pharm tech

Say u stay ops and retire at 62 in a career that is sustainable
U just a famer and Ur average annual is 250k becuase toward the end of your career u likely making close to 300k
That's 7 million life time earnings.

U can try to chiong locum very high intensity.
Let's say u can really do 80 hours a week , at 100 an hour
That's 32k a month or 360k a year.
Assume u very good and chiong for 10 years. That's only 3.6 millio
Then for the next 18 years u settle down into a normal GP job that gives u 180k a year
That's another 3.2 mil
Overall still lose to the farmer.
Farmer also have time to find a wife, get married, 30 days annual leave and what not.

Yada u gonna say u will invest the 3.6 million earlier and blar blar so overall u will come out tops.
Trust me ah, when u make 30k a month, u will spend more one.
All the more when u work so hard for money, u want to enjoy.
And given Ur impetuous nature, u likely to anyhow invest
