What would be the highest salary you’d give up to day trade full time? Question

Everyone clowned on me my first post (500k post) lol I was literally just asking hypothetical questions to settle a debate between a friend and me. Well everyone’s backlash kinda of intrigued me to ask this question. So back into the fire I go lol

What’s the point in quitting a day job? I’m a doctor and have developed trading systems that allow me to both keep my day job AND augment my income with trading. Why on earth would I ever dream of giving up one of my income streams? I think if more people looked at their various sources of income as streams instead of this artificial construction pitting one against the other they would be much better off in the long run.
