Talk with your own advisor or schedule with Bryan to get specific advice The earlier you can get financially literate and work on a plan the betterBryan is an emergency medicine physician, along his journey in medicine he also spent 5 years working in Autism before coming back to EM full timeThe covid pandemic and a feeling of stagnation and desire to keep learning prompted Bryan to pursue a master's degree in finance Bryan finds familiarity in his role as a physician to his role as a financial planner. You listen to the client and come up with a plan that fits their needsBryan talks about the difference between riches and wealth; discretionary income is the income above your mandatory expenses – and what you do with that extra income is how you become wealthy or richRiches are the material things you may spend that money on, car, house, toysWealth is the money you could spend but instead save or invest insteadThe goal is to create assets so that your income is no longer needed. Buying back your timeWhen you have true wealth, you can make decisions with your timeWorking towards being financially independent prevents burnoutChoosing to work vs working because you have to is easier, and makes you a better providerKey attributes to develop to be financially successful: Be patient – assets grow slowly. Be consistent in investing. It is boring. Be honest with what you know and what you don't know so you can spend some time educating yourself. Courage, because it does take some risk taking to invest instead of just savingIf you keep all your money in cash, you are guaranteed to lose purchasing powerThe longer your time frame the better the stock market will perform for youCreating discretionary income is difficult at lower incomes levels. But I do still believe you can retire from EMS. One way that I was able to save and invest as a paramedic was working overtimeHaving higher incomes does speed things along but it is not the cure for financial problems because we all have a tendency to spend what we make – fundamentally it's the same problemWe talk about the vehicles we drive and how we have utilized them to save more moneyBut spend money on Support the showFull show notes can be found here: Episodes - Practical EMS - Content for EMTs, PAs, ParamedicsMost efficient online EKG course here: Practical EKG Interpretation - Practical EMS earn 4 CME and learn the fundamentals through advanced EKG interpretation in under 4 hours.

Adding value to clients is a core value over here at the Efficient Advisor. Today's episode is going to be a game changer for you when it comes to a simple-to-execute value add that is huge on impact. If you know me, you know when it comes to adding value we're looking for two things… 1) How much impact does it actually have on your clients?... and 2) What is the difficulty to execute said value add? When I come across something that is lower on difficulty and HIGH on impact… I am here for it and I cannot wait to share it with this community. Today's guest, Blake Brewer, is something really special. He's on a mission to help parents create a lasting legacy beyond finances for their children and he partners with financial advisors to help them become indispensable in their clients' lives. Legacy Letter - which is this awesome idea - was just featured on the Today Show. It's that cool. And, at the end of the episode I'm going to share with you how I would create a process around this value add and how I would incorporate this into my business themes to increase my client impact. Blake joins us today to share how his father inspired him to help parents create legacies for their children. He discusses the power of words and writing letters and explains how he helps financial advisors make an impact. Get the tissues out… this story is moving.
