  • Today we have a two doc couple on the podcast who are back to broke. This couple lives in NYC, has two young children and had nearly $1 million in student loans at the end of training. They have worked hard to get on the same page, save and build wealth, and still have fun living their lives in the process. They talked about the need to know what you care about and what you don't. They care more about travel than a fancy expensive apartment. Knowing what you value is critical. After the interview we are talking about mortgages for Finance 101.

If you hate your job, you are at great risk of burnout. We also answer some questions about real estate around buying into your building, 1031 exchange details, and if it is a good idea to let the builder of your new home carry the construction loan.

  • Today we are celebrating this OBGYN taking a 5 month maternity leave and still building wealth through the process. This dual doc couple took advantage of all their state and employer benefits to really minimize the financial impact of taking maternity and paternity leave. Despite taking a hit to their income their wealth grew by around $200,000. Her advice to anyone who is starting a new job and wants to have kids at some point is to look very closely at what the maternity benefits the job offers.

  • We start off answering questions from some military docs about the TSP fund now that it allows Roth conversions and contributions. We then talk about indemnification clauses. Dr. Dahle asked our friend Kyle Claussen from Resolve to come on and educate us and answer this question. Indemnification clauses can be problematic for docs and it is worth really understanding them. We wrap up by answering questions about debt pay off. The first is about what happens when you try to make an extra student loan payment, next we talk about the best way to pay off a practice loan and then discuss if it is a good idea and if it is even possible to cash flow your advanced education.

  • Today we are talking to a resident who is already back to broke. He had a leg up from fantastic parents who were able to help pay for his first few years of medical school. He is a great example of showing that you can get started on your financial journey before you even get your first attending paycheck. His secret to success is educating yourself early, living like a resident, and being extremely conscious of where you are spending you money. His next goal is aggressively paying off his student loans as soon as he is out of training. After the interview we are talking about flipping your home to a rental property for finance 101 and if that is a good idea or not.
