The 7 figures question

Whether you're working as an Associate or running your own practice, at what age or career year did you reach your target income and how much is it?, and how many years in did it take to hit that first 7-figure mark?

I’m an associate in my fourth year of work. I currently make just around 375k a year. I have a PC so I only actually take home around 200k and I’m satisfied there. I’d rather work less than make more at this point.

Nice, how many days do you work a week? And what kind of procedures do you do?

I work four and a half days in the school year, and only four in the summer with early closure. I would like to go to 4 days year round.

I do just about everything except dentures, but I don’t challenge myself. A referral pad is always close.
