059: Perfectionist Traps That Are Costing You Money


Listen Later

Your perfectionist mindset (the one that makes you an amazing doctor) might not be doing your finances any favors. Here’s what we mean: You’re making countless decisions every single day — from complex medical calls to juggling client conversations to managing your packed schedule. By the time you get to your finances, your brain is fried. So you either overthink everything or just avoid money decisions completely. Learn how perfectionism can show up in your financial life and explore practical strategies to make financial decisions when you're already dealing with decision fatigue.

Key moments:

(04:41) Overcoming analysis paralysis with the “dart method”

(07:09) Set up your 401(k) now — the “worst” investment choice beats waiting for the perfect option later

(11:01) Perfectionism about investing for your student loan tax bomb is actually costing you thousands

(14:39) You're smart enough to do anything, but that doesn't mean you should do everything yourself

(17:08) The one mindset shift that will dramatically improve your finances as a veterinarian
