Episode 26 Doctor Money Matters. This is the second part of the Episode 25 podcast. Welcome to another Doctor Money Matters episode. This is a double episode with guests in 2 separate locations in Texas. I split the conversation into 2 separate episodes (25 and 26) so please make sure you listen to both. I interviewed David Anderson, DO and Victor Mangona, MD, 2 of the most detailed oriented and helpful members of the various physician finance facebook groups including the Doctor Money Matters group. There was a little technical issue with David’s audio so it may not perfectly clear, but bear with it as the content discussed today is pure gold. In this episode we go into detail about many of the concepts repeatedly discussed on these various forums. Tax rates (Effective vs Marginal) Paying down debt vs investing. Using a 529 plan to establish a legacy of education for future generations Cryptocurrency. To be fair this interview occurred while we were near the height of the mania earlier this year. The necessity vs the value of paying for financial advice. When should you pay for advice? We also discussed an interesting idea about medical schools paying for disability and life insurance for their students after hearing about a sad story in which a young medical student passed away on the interview trail. The GoFundMe page is no longer active and ended up raising $304K. Victor also outlined a strategy for how to use the funds to generate income for the family. I hope you enjoyed this double episode and hearing the voice of 2 people who have provided valuable and detailed information to many of us in my group and many of the other forums for physicians. I know I have benefited from their well thought out analysis and explanations and I am that will continue. Remember we are not professional planners (though David is working on that) and our discussion and recommendations may not be appropriate for everyone.
