Creating content about work has become more lucrative than doing it

The idea that talking about being a doctor can be more lucrative than actually being a doctor has significant implications for the future of humanity. Half of medical students in the UK admire the lifestyle of content creators rather than aspiring to be doctors themselves, while the other half criticize those who leave the profession. However, showcasing alternative lifestyles outside of medicine can help filter out individuals who do not have a genuine passion for the field. The ideal healthcare system would consist of doctors who truly want to be there, rather than those who chose the career path at a young age and feel trapped. Despite concerns about the impact of content creation on the medical profession, the oversubscription of medical school spots in the UK ensures a continuous supply of aspiring doctors.
