Physician Personal Finance

In medical training, our job is to hone our craft by learning and practicing the best possible medicine for our patients. Unfortunately, medical training isn't free. With the substantial debt burden facing graduating medical students, it has become increasingly important to know how to navigate the choppy waters of personal finance. With sharks in the water, no training on personal finance, and little time to spare on such an important topic, this short primer aims to teach you only what you need to know about personal finance so that you can focus on taking good care of patients.

There are two things medical school doesn't teach you, such as how to pay off the massive amount of debt you accrue as a medical student and how to thrive and enjoy your life as a happy, successful doctor. The Debt Free Physician will give you the knowledge and tools you need to do both!

This book offers a quick and easy reference guide for busy healthcare professionals in getting a grasp on their personal finances. It outlines how financial security is a complementary part of the education a medical student should be receiving from the early stages of their career training through retirement and leaving a legacy. You will learn about financial planning strategies, how to ascertain simple, actionable goals, and what steps you can take to make your financial dreams a reality.
