Don't be the doctor making $400k with $0 in the bank. You risk your financial future by ignoring this ER doc's advice — and Dr. Jim Dahle should know. The emergency physician and founder of The White Coat Investor joins M1s Luke Geis, Zach Grissom, Hunter Fisher, and Katherine Yu to share how he got burned early in his career — and what he did to fix it. From why disability insurance should top your post-grad checklist, to how physicians get targeted by shady financial “advisors,” to why home ownership in residency might not be the best idea — Dr. Dahle walks us through real, usable advice. He breaks down the cost of a good financial advisor, explains why index funds beat stock-picking 95% of the time, and why you should aim to be more than just an employee in medicine. We also get into financial planning for med students with kids, and why chasing hot stocks is a losing strategy, and how disability insurance can save your bacon.

Today we hear from a Veterinarian who is back to broke only 10 months out of training. This vet lives in the midwest and really shows what geo arbitrage can do. He has a fantastic income and a very low cost of living and those two things make a huge impact on finances. He has paid off almost all of his student loans and has saved for a down payment at the same time. His frugality, smart decisions, and hard work has made all of this possible. Using those skills will ensure that he will be financially independent in no time. After the interview we will talk about mutual funds for finance 101.

Dr. Dahle's good friend, Dr. Matt Morgan, joins us on the podcast today. Dr. Morgan just completed a one year sabbatical that was all about living intentionally and creating the life he wants now, not after retirement. Matt talked about his desire to be able to say yes to the things he loves any time he wanted to. He and his family spent time at home as well as traveling to New Zealand and all over Europe. He is a great example of not necessarily needing to reach FIRE to travel and take time off and do what you want to do. He shares how he prepared for the year, how he talked to his employer about the time off, how his family participated and everything else that went into making this adventure possible. Today's episode is brought to us by SoFi, the folks who help you get your money right. Paying off student debt quickly and getting your finances back on track isn't easy, but that's where SoFi can help — they have exclusive, low rates designed to help medical residents refinance student loans—and that could end up saving you thousands of dollars, helping you get out of student debt sooner.

Today we are talking with a CRNA who has become a millionaire! She is 18 years out of training and now has more than a million dollars in retirement accounts. Her story is a great example that if you just keep saving, and you keep increasing your income, and give it time, you will become a millionaire. You don't have to do anything fancy. She recommends that you really advocate for yourself to get paid what you deserve. Increasing her income has made a huge impact on how much she could save. She also feels strongly that you should know what you value and spend your money on that and not on the things you don't. After the interview we will be talking about tax strategy for finance 101.

In this final installment of our four-part deep dive, we conclude our review of White Coat Investor's critique of the Ernst & Young whitepaper on insurance products. If you've stuck with us from Episode 315 through now, you know this has been a winding journey through annuities, whole life policies, investment assumptions—and plenty of eyebrow-raising takes. Today, we wrap it all up with our closing thoughts on the White Coat Investor review. We also zoom out to look at the big picture: What's really at stake when professionals argue about insurance-backed retirement strategies? What does this mean for actual investors trying to make informed decisions?

Today we are answering more of your Roth IRA and 401(k) questions. We talk about the difference between Roth and Traditional IRAs and then answer a question about Roth IRAs for your kids. We talk about some things to think about when changing your business 401(k) plan administrator and then explain what to do if you over contribute to your 401(k).

Today we are talking with a doc who is celebrating getting back on track after some financial mistakes. He made the same mistake so many of us have and ended up with a bad financial advisor. His advisor sold him a disability policy that was overpriced and not a good product. Once he had his financial awakening he realized he could do this on his own. He fired his advisor and dropped the crappy policy. He took on his student loans in a new way and got rid of those too. He talked about the process of forgiving himself for his mistakes and celebrated the things he did do well. We love this story that shows us that making mistakes is part of the deal and you can always take control of your financial life and get back on track. After the interview we will be talking about career longevity for Finance 101. With Weatherby Healthcare, you choose your own healthcare career path.

In Part 3 of our deep dive into White Coat Investor Disagrees with Ernst & Young, we tackle some of the strangest assumptions in the analysis. We break down how whole life policies are managed (or mismanaged), questionable projections of policy performance, and bizarre reinvestment strategies for annuity proceeds. Plus, we explore the odd decision to replace fixed-income investments solely with insurance products, the implications of paying back a whole life policy, and a 70-year time horizon that raises more questions than it answers. Tune in as we continue to expose the flaws in this controversial financial assessment!   --   This Material is Intended for General Public Use.

Today we start out by talking about what to do when your work place turns toxic and how to protect yourself from bad employers and from losing your job. The truth is sometimes you might just have to go find a new job. The biggest risk to the longevity of your career and becoming financially independent is burnout. 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.

In Episode 315 of More Than Commas, we take a deep dive into White Coat Investor's critique of the Ernst & Young Insurance Products in Retirement Study.

Tune in as we break down the arguments, separate fact from opinion, and help you think critically about financial critiques.   --   This Material is Intended for General Public Use.
