Median income seems to be about $450k - varying depending on region, though. Likely a little over $500k in the region that includes LA (though I don't have the numbers in front of me).
No fricking way. I knew it was high but had no idea it was that high. Now I'm jealous of my friend who's going back to school for three years for this (although there's no way in hell it'd interest me).
Why is the pay so extraordinarily high?

I think the OP is referring to an MD anesthesiologist. CRNAs don't make nearly as much, although they do very well from what I've heard.

They can be drug dealers. Its not rare for people that own pain clinics to make 7 figures a year but its getting harder and harder for them due to the DEA cracking down.
