Yeah, It's a big difference. Makes residency a hell of a lot nicer, and frankly 40-50k or so is a pretty comfortable income without kids or 20k a year in interest, so you can actually save a bit during residency.
Figure for comparison, you do engineering. Maybe a 5 year program with a masters. And you start at 50-60k, top is usually 120k-ish, unless you end up as an executive. They still work you like a dog, too. There's only 3 years you aren't making any money, but you also have no expenses, since they're covered. And even the average pediatrician makes more money than that.
