White Coat Investor Podcast

You don't have to build wealth during residency, but there are certainly benefits to getting an early start.
Today's guest on The Milestones to Millionaire Podcast is Dr. Nick Giusti, a 5th year Orthopedic Surgery Resident who, along with his wife, have accumulated over $100K in their Roth IRAs, and they even have a net worth of about $150K despite still having six-figures of student loans. Nick has also taken it upon himself to help educate his co-residents about personal finance, knowing that they may not hear that message anywhere else in their medical education.
Nick has taken the time during residency to build the good financial habits that will make sure he hits the ground running as an attending. Congrats Nick!

How does this second-year military resident already have $170K net worth?
Military docs face a trade-off in their careers. They owe a time debt for medical school instead of a monetary debt and they do make substantially more during residency than civilian residents. These benefits are counterbalanced by receiving a lower salary during attending hood than their civilian peers. Because of lower attending salaries, military docs should take advantage of their low debt and extra salary early in their careers by saving more, sooner, so that compound interest can do its work.
Something like the HPSP scholarship can be a great way to pay for medical school, but ONLY if you're actually interested in military service.

What do you do when you find that you're living paycheck-to-paycheck on $600K+ per year?
The answer for Justin was to go on offense and maximize his income. He did all the normal things like maxing out retirement accounts, but also branched out into real estate investing and entrepreneurship. He streamlined his practice, started additional businesses associated with his practice, and even wrote a book and did some public speaking. He increased his income to over $2 million per year and that has allowed him to reach a net worth of over $8 million.
There are several paths to financial independence (index fund investing, real estate, entrepreneurship, etc.) and Justin shows us that you don't have to pick just one. Go and find the path that works for you.
The easiest way to make extra money right now is to start taking paid surveys. If you want to go on offense and increase your income, get started today, in your spare time. We maintain a list of survey companies for doctors at https://WhiteCoatInvestor.com/Survey
