"Average Joe" is frequently poor because of his car. For most middle-class Americans, the reason they are not millionaires is sitting in the driveway. It is a really important concept to understand, that we are wasting a lot of money on cars. We simply consume it. You don't have to do that. Here is the other truth that makes it very difficult to talk about this subject, https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/drive-a-beater-get-rich/ , most doctors make enough money that they can drive a very nice car and still be financially successful. So, despite the fact that this is an important aspect of your financial life if you're middle-class, it doesn't matter nearly as much for doctors. However, in this episode we discuss how to know how much car you can afford, debunk some of the reasons why doctors justify getting new cars instead of driving something inexpensive, and talk about the most economical way to pay for your transportation. For those who have their vehicle situation all figured out, we also answer several listener questions about 457s, ETFs, and mutual funds.

Student loans have been on the back burner for the last year or so, as borrowers have enjoyed 0% interest on their federal loans. There has been lots of talk in Congress about loan forgiveness and what that could look like. With the break on interest scheduled to come to an end this Fall, student loans are about to come front and center. Being in this state of limbo leaves borrowers with hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loans unsure of how to manage their loans going forward. Refinance and risk losing 0% interest if President Biden extends the deal? Or risk missing out on any loan forgiveness Congress may pass? There is a lot to think about right now so we brought on Andrew Paulson, of StudentLoanAdvice.com, in this week's episode to discuss loan forgiveness, interest rates, refinancing, consolidating and other questions about managing your student loan debt.
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.

In 1998, Bill Schultheis wrote a simple investment book for people who felt overwhelmed by the market. The Coffeehouse Investor inspires readers to follow a low stress way to financial security. Long before the White Coat Investor, Bill was preaching that when you simplify your investments, you end up getting better returns. This gives you more time for family, friends, and other pursuits. The Coffeehouse Investor philosophy is essentially getting your money taken care of so you can focus on living. In this interview we talk a lot about the importance of creating balance in your life and keeping money in a healthy perspective. We don't live to make money. Money is to pay for the life we want to live. If you are finding your life a little unbalanced right now, this episode will help get you straightened out. https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/how-to-be-a-coffeehouse-investor-with-bill-schultheis
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.

In this episode we celebrate Casey achieving financial independence relatively early on a military salary that ranged from $75-260K/year. He has a $1.5 million net worth plus a pension providing $80K/year starting at the age of 48. Not a typical FI story with a spending budget of $130K/year but with a family of 7 Casey can FIRE at age 48. He makes a good case for sticking it out for 20 years with the military!

Feeling like you are late to starting your retirement savings is a common sentiment. People are not generally as far behind as they think. Second career doctors have already taken care of some things that a doctor just coming out of residency has not, like owning a car, home, and raising children. Your highest earnings of your career are typically in your 50s. So, when you are earning more, it's easier to save more. This episode will help a later saver know what to prioritize and to understand some of the benefits of their age. The truth is that no doctor is ever really more than 10 years away from financial independence. You can do this and we can help. https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/behind-in-the-retirement-savings-game/
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.

For FIRE week on the White Coat Investor podcast, we have a guest host, Physician on Fire https://www.physicianonfire.com/credit-cards/ , discussing travel hacking and answering listener questions. You can earn free travel and he shows you how with regular spending and credit card welcome bonuses. Now credit cards are for convenience and only use them if you are disciplined enough to pay them off every month. Use autopay for all your cards and make sure you are getting at least 1.5% to 2% back on your everyday purchases. If you’re willing to pick up a new card a couple of times a year, and maybe cancel a card or two if you don’t think a card is worth the annual fee, you can get a LOT more bang for your buck by taking advantage of welcome bonuses. Let Leif show you how in this episode.
He also answers many questions about bonds and their role in your portfolio, as well as maximizing the 199A deduction, turnover rates in index funds, and understanding your taxes on side income.

People are wanting to do lots of different things to chase higher yields and most of them are bad ideas. We discuss a couple in this episode: cash secured puts and annuities. Since our crystal ball is as cloudy as yours, changing your investment strategy based on what you think will happen with rates in the future is generally not a good idea but we discuss when annuities might be appropriate for your portfolio.

Bill Bernstein is one of the smartest people we know in the investing world. Listen to this interview with Dr. Bernstein about his new book, The Delusions of Crowds and you will see why. The book is about religion and finance and is Bill’s attempt to explain to a secular audience the current polarization of American politics and culture. We really like his focus on financial history. It is important to understand what has happened in the past and to carry those lessons into your current investing. We discuss past manias, mass delusions, and bubbles while comparing them to today’s world. Bill emphasized that we need to treat investing as a serious subject with fundamental textbooks and peer reviewed literature. See full show notes here https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/the-delusions-of-crowds-with-bill-bernstein-podcast-207
At some point in our financial lives, it will be time to buy a home. A physician mortgage can be a good vehicle for a young doctor who’s just out of school and has a more effective place to use their money than on a big down payment. These loans allow doctors to secure a mortgage with fewer restrictions and a lower down payment than a conventional mortgage. But if you’re further advanced in your career or deeper into your journey to financial freedom, buying a home with a conventional mortgage and then, later on, potentially refinancing that loan to a better rate with a shorter time frame could be a great move. Wherever you are in your financial journey, make sure you use the mortgage that will be most financially beneficial for you. Hop over to our recommended tab to learn more about all of your mortgage and refinancing options at https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/mortgage. You can do this and The White Coat Investor can help.
