If you are money motivated you shouldn’t even enter FM residency in the first place

Should have called it quits and break bond after your full reg

You already incurred a lot of opportunity cost by choosing to train in FM residency

In that 3 years of time your peers who left for GP land/aesthetics have been earning a higher income and now they are probably anchoring GP clinics/being more proficient in their aesthetics

Honestly the whole point of getting MMED is to stay on in OPS and aim for leadership roles eventually
Ya I know of the opportunity cost. Been thinking of it for past year since my bond ended, thought many times of quitting residency but eventually decided to complete it nonetheless (as close to finishing already). Now Kind of thinking of cutting loss and gtfo in july. Ironically if I failed akt, probably won't have this dilemma as clear cut decision to leave. Now like more conflicted lol
