Funny story:

When I was 17 and almost flunking so badly I didn't graduate on time my mom asked me what the hell I was thinking?

My response, "I'm going to be a rock star."

Her reply, "...and if you're not, what then?"

Me: Then I'll marry a doctor.

Funny part is, I'm not a rockstar and I'm married to a doctor. It just sorta happened. That said, we've been married 10 years and she's still not making doctor money. Residency is a bitch. You get slave wages based on how much time/effort goes in to it.
