Can a Neurosurgeon afford a 125k Lamborghini Gallardo?

I'm planning to go to medical school this year after I graduate, after I have, let's say 20% of all my debt payed off. Could I afford a 125k Lamborghini Gallardo? Nerusurgeon's make on average 599k per year also. This isn't one of those "if you have to ask, you can't afford it questions"...|||They can afford a car up to $195,000-$200,000 if you go by statistics. no more than 1 third of your annual income should be spent on a vehicle. receiving around 599k per year, the total cost of all vehicles purchased in that year should be around 150k because other expenses will also need to be addressed and quite frankly, who wants to spend nearly 1 third of their salary in one day purchasing a car? save up before spending that kind of money on a car, if you decide to buy a vehicle such as that one. when you can afford a lamborghini, dont go for the older gallardo.. my recommendation is the new LP-560 based on the older gallardo. beautiful cars.|||If you have to ask and cannot spell neurosurgeon correctly multiple times, you will never make $599k. If all you're worried about is buying an expensive car in how you choose your profession, then you need to find a different line of work. If you think you'll make that much right out of medical school, you're delusional. You'll be living in a studio apartment the first 10 years, struggling to make your rent payments and buy food with what you have left over from your paychecks after paying your student loans. Plus there's no guarantee that you'll ever be a neurosurgeon. Just because that pays a lot and would allow you to buy an unreliable high priced POS like a Lamborghini doesn't mean you will actually cut it as one.



If you have to ask the same question 3 times in 2 days, you'll never be able to afford it.|||The money is not guaranteed, and the outlook for doctors of every sort is hazy. Malpractice premiums have already driven some doctors out of business - my daughter's OB from her last child has stopped doing deliveries. If we end up with nationalized health care the future is even dimmer. The former Soviet Union used to brag about how most of their doctors were women, but they made less than a nurse's aide did in the US.|||You need to get into medical school first. Straight A's and a superior score on the MCAT is not going to guarantee entry. Also, with 20% debt paid off, I am assuming these are you medical school loans? Where do you plan on practicing?





Answer- Doubtful, based on my first sentence.|||maybe
