This Orthopedist got started building his real estate portfolio while he was still a resident! Now after only 4 years he has a multi million dollar real estate empire. He said he began his journey by learning everything he possibly could about real estate and finances when he was in his second year of residency. Once he had the confidence he had the knowledge he needed he hit the ground running and hasn't looked back. After the interview we will talk about real estate professional status for Finance 101. At some point in our financial lives, it will be time to buy a home. A physician mortgage can be a good vehicle for a young doctor who’s just out of school and has a more effective place to use their money than on a big down payment. These loans allow doctors to secure a mortgage with fewer restrictions and a lower down payment than a conventional mortgage. But if you’re further advanced in your career or deeper into your journey to financial freedom, buying a home with a conventional mortgage and then, later on, potentially refinancing that loan to a better rate with a shorter time frame could be a great move. Wherever you are in your financial journey, make sure you use the mortgage that will be most financially beneficial for you.

This doc recently retired after a 40 year career that he loved with a nearly $50 million portfolio. He has been living and preaching the WCI methodology long before WCI existed. He tells us part of his secret to success is to choose where you live wisely and own your own business. He said owning his own surgery center made a massive difference to his happiness and his wealth because he got to control the way the practice was run, how efficient it was, who worked there etc. He is a testament of what can happen if you live below your means and invest wisely. He wants us all to remember to find joy in all stages of life and not just live for retirement. After the interview we will be talking about estate taxes for finance 101.

Today we talk with a nurse who is currently in school to become a CRNA and is officially a millionaire. Roughly 10 years ago he and his wife took control of their finances. He said there was some tough conversations as they educated themselves about how to become financially literate and what their goals should be and how to reach them. But once they were on the same page they were able to start crushing their goals. Their big goal was to be millionaires by 40 and they got there a few years early. He is now passionate about giving back both financially and educating coworkers about how to get started with taking control of their financial life. After the interview Dr. Dahle gives his thoughts on how to get started for finance 101. We estimate that 80% of doctors need, want, and should use a financial advisor and/or an investment manager. Some investment gurus such as Dr. William Bernstein think my estimate is way too low. At any rate, if you want to use an advisor temporarily or for your entire life, there is no reason to feel guilty about it—just make sure you are getting good advice at a fair price.

She was the beneficiary of having her loans forgiven under the current IDR waiver for PSLF.

Today we are answering your questions. We talk about capital gains taxes when selling a vacation home, then get into the age old debate about if it is a good idea to buy a house during residency. Dr. Dahle gives advice on things to think about when you are shopping for a new car, then he gives ideas for things to think about when considering buying into a practice. Finally, we answer a few questions about taxes. At some point in our financial lives, it will be time to buy a home. A physician mortgage can be a good vehicle for a young doctor who’s just out of school and has a more effective place to use their money than on a big down payment. These loans allow doctors to secure a mortgage with fewer restrictions and a lower down payment than a conventional mortgage. But if you’re further advanced in your career or deeper into your journey to financial freedom, buying a home with a conventional mortgage and then, later on, potentially refinancing that loan to a better rate with a shorter time frame could be a great move. Wherever you are in your financial journey, make sure you use the mortgage that will be most financially beneficial for you.

Today we talk with Dr. Jordan Grumet about how to live a regret free life. Dr. Grumet first read The White Coat Investor's Guide for Doctors back in 2014 and realized that he was already financially independent. This discovery opened his eyes to the fact that he could create more of the life he wanted. He sold his practice and reduced work hours and started spending his time where he really wanted to. He loved working in hospice and found great wisdom from people at the end of their lives and ultimately ended up leaving medicine, starting a podcast and writing a book. We think you will find this episode inspiring and will hopefully help you start to create a regret free life full of more of the things you love!

This doc made it back to broke only one year out of training. He was diligent about tracking his spending since med school and he attributes much of his success to having a plan and sticking to it. He said he definitely felt the temptation of lifestyle creep once he started seeing his paychecks but reminding himself that sticking to the plan was the best thing he could do for himself and his future self helped him stick to it! His advice to you? Make a budget, be on the same page as your partner, max out your retirement savings and know that if you stick to the plan time will work in your favor. After the interview we will talk about the difference between term life insurance and whole life insurance for finance 101. We estimate that 80% of doctors need, want, and should use a financial advisor and/or an investment manager. Some investment gurus such as Dr. William Bernstein think my estimate is way too low. At any rate, if you want to use an advisor temporarily or for your entire life, there is no reason to feel guilty about it—just make sure you are getting good advice at a fair price.
