WCI #320: Investment Accounts
22/06/2023 Duración: 31minToday we are answering your questions about investments accounts. We answer questions about UTM accounts and what the tax implications are, how to choose benefit options inside a 401a, whether or not to buy a pension, what to do with your solo 401(k) when starting a W2 job, and of course a Roth 401(k) question and more! 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. The White Coat Investor has been helping doctors with their money since 2011. Our fre

WCI #319: Wholesaling and Flipping Real Estate with Jamil Damji
15/06/2023 Duración: 50minOur guest today is Jamil Damji who is a co-host of the BiggerPockets On the Market podcast and the author of How to Wholesale Real Estate: The No Cash Strategy to Build a Scalable Business.

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 re
