The median income is ~$145,600 depending on where you live. You'll need 4 yrs of undergraduate school, 4 yrs of medical school, and 3 to 8 yrs of residency. You get to put MD (Doctor of Medicine) and DO (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine) after your name when all is done. I would suggest taking Pre-Cal in high school. All of my pre-med friends from university were eventually required to take calculus. Remember: Work hard in college; Not everyone gets into med school. My personal trainer wanted to go to med school but couldn't get in because his grades were not good enough. They weren't bad; they were not med school good. Please do well in under-grad. Opps. One last note. From a strictly financial point of view, YES IT IS WORTH IT. You'll probably have to go into debt for a little while, but consider it an investment. Whether you love your job that depends on personal tastes.
