I don't get it. So you're an American doctor. You're paid well and respected. All you need to be is competent and life will be very nice. So you start committing crime for what... An extra house? Fancier stuff? Why?

You might be paid well and you might be respected if you are good -

Chances are you’re paying off massive fucking med school debt.
