It's easier to stand your ground when you're young, single, and mobile (which I was at the time).

As a medical student you might see something unethical or negligent happen during rotations, but even speaking up could risk your career (superiors give you a bad eval, this affects residency applications down the line). This hasn't happened to me personally, but you hear stories from other students with all kinds of actions and outcomes. So I really feel ya there. There isn't a one size fits all walk off point because stakes are always different.

Good luck on your FIRE plans!
