This episode we discuss annuities, securities, and the three-fund portfolio. But we are also reaching the end of the year, which means it's time to take an assessment of how you did this year. Check out the End of Year Financial Checklist for 2021 https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/end-of-year-financial-checklist/. This checklist will help you make sure you did everything you need to do at the end of the year. It's got everything on there from completing your 2021 Backdoor Roth IRA, plus a Mega Backdoor Roth IRA and Roth conversions. It covers making sure you maxed out your 401(k)s and HSAs and 529s ABLE accounts if you have a disabled kid as well as using up your flexible spending account and making sure you have insurance in place and giving to charity before the end of the year, if that's something you're interested in doing. There are a number of other things on that list to make sure you do once a year.

We can learn several lessons from this dual doctor couple. The first two years they had no savings as they had no financial education. Having a child motivated them to be more intentional about getting their financial lives in place. Fortunately they had physician incomes so even if you are not perfect in the first few years you still have that income to become financially successful quickly. High income makes it easier. Do what you can to get your income up. See our article about ways to make more money as a doctor. https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/15-ways-to-make-more-money-as-a-doctor/

Today we are answering questions about contract negotiation. It is important to know what parts of a contract you can negotiate and when you likely won't have any control over your contract. It is critical to understand the details of your contract and we highly recommend having your contract reviewed by a professional. https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/contract-negotiation-and-review/. You want to be crystal clear on your compensation, who pays for the tail, time off, sick time, maternity or paternity leave, and call structure etc. These are all things you can and should negotiate. We also cover a few more questions about student loans. The student loan landscape is ever changing but recently it has become easier to qualify for PSLF. If you are one of the lucky people who now qualify we recommend applying no matter how much student debt you have left.
