This surprised me at first, but a doctor (especially a surgeon) would make more. Although, some lawyers (or judges) make a million or even two million dollars annually. It can also depend on how much you charge your client for a lawyer, how popular and well-known you are, how many clients you have, and what firm you work at. Still, a doctor usually makes more money than a lawyer. I am 12 and hoping to become a lawyer or judge.

Depends. If you are good at arguing, a lawyer is the way to go, and you get a lot of clients to make a lot of money. If you are very good at baseball, the better you are, the more money you'll make.
In US English, there is seldom a distinction made between "attorneys" (the technical term) and "lawyers" (the colloquial term), so they are different words for the same occupation.
