WCI #340: Choosing To Thrive With Stacy Taniguchi
09/11/2023 Duración: 50minToday we are talking with Dr. Stacy Taniguchi about choosing to thrive and creating a life you would want to live over and over again. Dr. Taniguchi talks about making the most of the time we have on this earth and being intentional about spending our time and money doing what we truly value. He does not like the idea of a bucket list, but prefers focusing on a Thrive LIst that helps you go about living your fullest life. 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 co

WCI #339: Dave Ramsey Gives Poor Advice to Unmatched Doc
02/11/2023 Duración: 47minToday we are answering you questions about taxes. We talk about how investing can impact taxes, how to manage estimated payments for your taxes and qualified dividends and even answer a question about tax breaks from investing in oil and gas. We also answer a few questions about asset allocation. Before we get into all of that Dr. Dahle gives his opinion on what advice Dave Ramsey should have, but didn't, give to an unmatched doc in a mountain of debt. Listen to the Dave Ramsey call here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cx3Bntau-Au/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA%3D%3D 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. Because these policies can only be purchased through brokers, we have put together a list of vetted agents who are experienced with working with the specific needs of medical professionals a

WCI #337: Entrepreneurship and Angel Investing
19/10/2023 Duración: 43minToday we are talking with Drs Niki Kennedy and Dan Pipitone of Arborhive. We are talking all about entrepreneurship and how doctors can use their expertise outside of the standard medical box. We also hit on the flip side of entrepreneurship and talk about angel investing. Angel investing certainly is not for everyone. You really need to have the time and the money to be successful in that space. If you want to try your hand at angel investing we recommend limiting it to small percentage of your portfolio. If you’re like most doctors, nobody taught you anything about personal finance or investing during your undergrad, professional school, or residency. And even though your family - and perhaps even your business - rely on you to be the Chief Financial Officer, you have never been given the tools to succeed. Enroll in WCI Financial Boot Camp, a FREE educational email series, and learn to convert your high income to wealth. You will learn the basics of investing, saving, insurance, and more.

MtoM #140: Vascular Surgeon Lives Like a Resident and Finance 101: Car Insurance
16/10/2023 Duración: 25minOur interview today is with a doc who has mastered the art of living like a resident. She shows us what working hard, saving and advocating for yourself can do for your finances. She has paid off her student loans, bought some new cars with cash, maxed out her retirement accounts, and purchased a new home! She works in academics and shows us that you don't have to make one million dollars to grow your wealth rapidly. Stick around after the interview for our finance 101 discussion on car insurance. As a white coat, you have valuable knowledge. Various companies want that knowledge. And they’re willing to pay you for it! That’s why we’ve put together a list of recommendations for companies that pay you to take surveys. If you’re looking for a profitable side gig for not too much effort, getting paid for surveys could be the perfect solution for you. You can make extra money, start a solo 401(k), and use your medical knowledge to impact new products. One of the WCI columnists makes an extra $30,000 a year just d

WCI #336: Asset Protection In Real Estate Investing
12/10/2023 Duración: 55minToday we tackle your questions about renting out a property, buying a house, estate planning, and the home office deduction. We also talk about a new potential long term care insurance tax in California, much like the tax in Washington State. We also have one of our real estate partners on to update you about what is going on at MLG and to help answer a few of your questions. 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.
