Would the White Coat Investor exist if I had only interacted with good financial professionals, and not multiple ones that ripped us off and caused me to educate myself and take control of our finances? Probably not. https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/about/ So we have that terrible advisor to thank for this podcast which is all about your questions. We discuss the future of home prices in the U.S. We talk about investing in actively managed funds, whether there is a time that is a good idea with stocks or bonds. One of the good guys in the financial services industry joins us to answer questions on whether you should use bitcoins hyper volatility to time the market and make more money and if social index fund investing is a good way to invest. Whatever your investing plan says to do, it must all start with a high savings rate. We recommend 20% and tell you why in this episode.
I estimate that 80% of doctors need, want, and should use a financial advisor and/or an investment manager. Some investment gurus such as Dr. William Bernstein think my estimate is way too low. At any rate, if you want to use an advisor temporarily or for your entire life, there is no reason to feel guilty about it—just make sure you are getting good advice at a fair price. If you need help updating your financial plan or just getting one in place, check out our list of recommended financial advisors at https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/financial-advisors. You can do this and The White Coat Investor can help.

A defined benefit cash balance plan https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/cash-balance-plans-another-retirement-plan-for-professionals/ is a somewhat unusual and surprisingly physician specific retirement account. It is a type of a defined benefit plan. On one end you have a defined contribution plan like a 401(k) and on the other a defined benefit plan or pension plan. A cash balance pension, a subtype of defined benefit plan lies as kind of a hybrid between the two. It still falls in the category as a defined benefit plan, but it's purpose is designed not so that you have an annual income distribution after you retire but that you take the lump sum. Confused? Don't worry, we have Victor Mangona, who has developed an expertise in these plans, as our guest this episode. We discuss who should consider a cash balance plan, how much money can be put into a plan, the tax savings from using this plan, how to invest these assets, what happens if there is a loss in the account, and most importantly how to get your practice to adopt a cash balance plan so you can take advantage of these great accounts.

How much coverage do you need for bodily injury liability? What options should you pass on? How does your umbrella policy work with you car insurance policy? Most doctors should have an umbrella policy in a seven-figure amount. 80% of umbrella claims are auto-related. To get an umbrella policy you will be required to carry certain limits in car insurance. We dive into all these details in this episode to make certain you are appropriately insured to protect your finances.
Like other episodes, after this deep dive, we answer listener questions about liquidating your brokerage account, HSAs, calculating your net worth as a practice owner, and whether practice owners need disability insurance.
Getting quality disability and life insurance should be the first financial chore for a doctor to complete. Most docs don't have the ideal policy for their gender, specialty, state, or health status and 1 in 7 doctors get disabled at some point during their career.

If you have questions about insurance and what kind of policies would be the best fit for you, check out our insurance recommended list at https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/insurance and feel the peace of mind that comes with knowing you have the optimal policy in place. You can do this and The White Coat Investor can help.
