Would you marry a female MD?

Published

just curious to know if it would be a problem for a male nurse to marry a doctor..I personally wouldn't have a problem with it..voice your opinion

Why do you guys concentrate on that 300K of loans she owes. Who cares if she does, she can pay that off in a couple of years tops with her salary.

Plus in Arizona where I live, med school is not 300K, it is more like half of that.

That was probably what he meant by "live on my nursing income".

No.... he meant live on his salary to invest her salary in order to allow for retirement by 40...

4yrs undergrad + 4 years med school + 3 year residency making jack squat + 1-3 year fellowship making jack squat = a LOT of money owed.

She'd have to make some pretty sick money to pay off $300k worth of loans "in a couple of years" what with how Uncle Sam tends to take most of our money these days.

Obviously if you love the woman, marry her. We're just being facetious here....:p

Yes, as long as I could buy lots of stuff and never have to consumate the relationship :D

Assuming: A $300,000 paying off a stafford loan at 6% for 30 years? That's around $1,700 give or take monthly. RN income in the Bay Area is higher than that of other states. I'm pretty sure we can manage. Damn, I just spent 3 minutes calculating this for no reason. How many female MD's are out there? LMAO!

Nah, I wouldn't. My wife would kill me.:smokin:

I have to concur I don't think my wife would be too happy either. I guess I could use the devil made me do it excuse...:devil:

I would do it if I didn't have to work with her often. I don't think I could handle being married to someone and spending my entire day at work with her too.

I don't think it would be a problem at all. Just stay out of the same specialty and facility. I'm married to a female RN whom I love dearly, raised four children with and has been my best friend for over 25 years but put us on the same unit? Ain't pretty...:no:
