You have had years of school, but personal finance and investing were not part of the curriculum.
While the big paychecks are coming soon, your high income alone won’t guarantee the life you pictured after getting accepted to medical school.Even after three decades with a high income, over 25% of doctors in their 60s are not millionaires, and too many live paycheck to paycheck.
The first 12 months post-training are the most critical of your financial life.
Get them right, and you are likely to build wealth that will provide you with financial security, the ability to help others, and career opportunities you can now only dream of.
But if you grow into your attending income instantaneously, you will find yourself at mid-career working 1.5 FTEs and feeling burnt out with multiple mortgages, car payments, and six figures of student loan debt hanging over your head.
Getting your financial ducks in a row will increase happiness, prevent divorce, reduce burnout, and improve your ability to care for your patients.
While you didn't become a doctor with the primary goal of becoming rich, you've worked way too hard not to be financially successful.
You need the right tools to negotiate your ideal job, eliminate debt, buy your dream home, and become a millionaire within 5-10 years of residency graduation.
Your education is an investment, and you should obtain the highest return possible
Fire Your Financial Advisor for Residents is the student and resident portions of the complete Fire Your Financial Advisor course series. It is a 10-hour online video course (with audio-only listening options) where you will navigate student loans and establish a plan to eliminate debt and become a millionaire 5-10 years from residency graduation.
This course teaches you to live better on less money and take full advantage of both government student loan programs and the tax code. You will gain the tools to choose the right job beyond just looking at salary. From retirement savings to flexible schedules, we'll show you how to get the most out of your compensation package to match your financial and lifestyle goals.
Applying the information taught in the Fire Your Financial Advisor (FYFA) course series will dramatically change your life, and you can enjoy a career most doctors only dream of.
By mid-career, you can eliminate the parts of your job that you dislike. You can drop night shifts and call. You can work with great partners and an ideal patient population. You can go on vacation every month, drive your dream car, and live where you want to live.
With the financial know-how and a written financial plan developed through the FYFA series, you will enjoy the freedom to spend guilt-free while still achieving your goals.
When you finish the course, you’ll feel confident that:
- You understand the role of money in your career
- You are managing your student loans the best way, maximizing the benefits of government programs, minimizing interest paid, and have a plan to get out of debt as soon as possible
- You know how to evaluate job opportunities and find one that is the best fit for you
- You can negotiate your employment contract to maximize compensation aligning with what you value most
- You have the best insurance for your needs at the best possible price and your family will be well taken care of if something should happen to you
- You have a plan for your first 12 months of attending paychecks to eliminate debt and rapidly build wealth
Your schedule is packed and your budget is tight, but what you will learn in the Fire Your Financial Advisor for Residents course can literally make a difference worth millions of dollars over the course of your career.
This course will empower your life with the financial know-how to make career decisions that combat burnout and ensure longevity in your chosen profession. Having a plan for your loans will help you sleep worry-free at night. The security of having a financial plan in place will give you the choice to take sabbaticals, work part-time, go on the “parent track” for a few months or years, stay in academics, or even pursue passion projects. Ultimately, you will be able to choose to work in medicine past financial independence because you want to, not because you have to.
As an added bonus, the course includes worksheets and examples that you can modify and use as you build your financial plan.
Here’s what a few of the 6,500 students have to say about the course:
You can do this! While you may not have had classes about student loans, investing, taxes, or insurance in school, you have excelled at far more complicated subjects.
Thankfully, finances are much easier than organic chemistry.
Even if you plan on hiring a financial advisor, it's crucial to know the basics of personal finance. Unlike doctors' commitment to the Hippocratic oath, there is no similar oath for financial professionals.
Sadly, many doctors are ripped off by "advisors" and insurance agents. In fact, The White Coat Investor was born from a desire to protect other doctors from being taken advantage of.
Managing your own money can be one of your best-paid hobbies saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in financial advisor fees each year. But despite its provocative name, the Fire Your Financial Advisor course series will help you find and vet a financial advisor who won’t rip you off and will align with your financial needs.
You’ll finish the series with confidence that you understand foundational investing concepts and an advisor can help to implement them in your plan.
