Today, we're going to dive into a mindset shift that every high-earning professional needs to hear, especially our ER doc families making strong incomes. It's tempting to think that a $400K household is financially invincible. But the truth is: the system isn't designed to make you wealthy. It's designed to keep you comfortable. 

And comfortable, if you're not careful, is the enemy of wealthy. We're going to walk through a real-world hypothetical of a $400K-earning ER doc, a stay-at-home parent, two kids, and all the common expenses that come with the lifestyle to show you exactly how easy it is to spin your wheels and not actually build wealth.
