re: dentists - the resurgence of wealthy

that's less than I thought it would be, but like other professions, I guess it gives you a platform to get into other ventures, and "expand" your financial horizons

That's very slow for the "upper end" scale. The dentist I worked for when I got out of school was taking home $450K, and that was in the early '90s. A guy I graduated with was grossing $1.5 million a year in Medicaid, and he only saw Medicaid patients 2 days/week. There are plenty dentists making $300K and more, and $200-300K is quite common for specialists.
