Richard’s Answer

40-60 in practice.

During medical school and residency, you won’t be in control of your own schedule which makes leisure time difficult to obtain. However, after training, you can be in more control and can choose what practice to join based on your needs. You can work less and have more spare time at the cost of making less money and possibly consulting on less interesting cases.
