I actually know a lot of junior doctors, as the University I went to has a lot of med students, so the people I knew there have been doctors for 5 to 7 years at this point. None of them are even close to being "millionaires"... They have pretty normal middle class existences and incomes, hectic work lives, and little social time.
The point I'm making is junior doctors move up the scale pretty quickly, so the time they actually are "junior" can be as short as 5 years, I never mentioned the word millionaire
