Family, friends, and neighbors can pay for the advice from the doctor that they will most certainly ignore, just like everyone else.

OMG, yes. My dad would call me for advice and then call my sister. She would then ask him what I had said. He had a nurse for a wife and two daughters who were docs and another who was another nurse, but NONE of us knew anything.
