How do you guys feel about "if you want money, you shouldn't be in healthcare."? Is it justifiable for the shitty pay and long working hours?

Don't listen to this, there is a reason why Singapore is the world's most expensive city to live in 2020 according to CNN. By comparison NYC is ranked 4th.

Just have a look at the previous posts on this thread, even Singapore trained doctors are looking to migrate to greener pastures in Canada, Australia, New Zealand so those would be your better options if you are looking for high pay and a decent quality of life.

Correct, you have just listed the first tier countries in the world to practice medicine and there are correspondingly very high barriers of entry to practice medicine in those countries for non-citizens!
I would put USA, Singapore and HK as second tier due to their high level of medicine and take home pay after tax. Singapore also takes in a fair few foreign doctors who can't qualify for the first tier countries.
Third tier countries are the post-Brexit UK with its underfunded and understaffed NHS and the EU where doctors generally aren't well remunerated, and then there is everyone else.

Even if u drive ,300k still goes a long way.
Ignore those idiots who claims 300k pa is little.
This forum is full of delusional keyboard worrior whose only experience with such annual is from reading threads where every person that works in a bank makes 500kpa.

Canadian physician here. Taxes here are the highest among those countries you listed. For every additional $1 I make, the government takes $0.52.
I won't move to Canada if money is your primary motivator.
