The word hope sounds great, doesn’t it? Even though hope is awesome to have, it doesn’t drive the action behind completing a goal. Action is what we do and it’s what we don’t do, but happiness, fear, and the topic of this show, hope… are all feelings.  Feelings, while amazing at constructing sporadic follow-through, promote a lack of focus. Ain’t nobody got time for that. Katrina Ubell MD of the Weight Loss for Busy Physicians Podcast, charts the course for awareness so that we can use action (and not hope) for tapping our financial goal power!

Hope Is Not a Strategy

As a doctor, you spent decades in school to get to where you are. Unfortunately, during all those years in medical school and residency, you probably didn't receive a financial education. But, not to worry. That’s where I come in. Think of this podcast as your financial residency without the long hours and sleepless nights! I will guide you through a financial education resulting in money confidence and clarity in this critical aspect of your life. You’ll understand how you make money, how you spend money, how your hard-earned money can work for you, and how to protect yourself and your family. I have witnessed residents and fellows bombarded by life and disability insurance salesmen and other “investment” pitches that are not in their best interest. You didn’t receive any formal financial education in your decades of medical training, so how are you supposed to know the good financial advisors from the bad? This podcast will help with that. Remember, it’s ok to not know the difference between a ROTH IRA and a 403b or which 529 plan is best. This podcast will simplify highly complex concepts and translate industry jargon into plain English. Are you ready to take action and make smarter, more informed financial decisions? Great - let's do this! Let your financial residency begin.

In this episode of the "Life Well Lived: A Physician's Guide to Wealth" podcast, host James Nutter discusses the importance of taking extreme ownership and full responsibility for one's life. He shares his personal journey of blaming others for his circumstances and how he learned to take control and liberate himself. James emphasizes that blaming external factors such as the government, the economy, or other people only hinders personal growth and financial success. He encourages listeners to reflect on their own lives and assess whether they are taking full responsibility for their outcomes. James provides examples of individuals who have overcome adversity and achieved great success by taking ownership of their lives. He also introduces the formula "e + r = o" (experience + reaction = outcome) to illustrate the power of choosing how to respond to life's challenges. By taking responsibility and responding positively, individuals can create the outcomes they desire.

Coffee & Contracts - ACC recap

Appraisals are completed by an independent third-party provider so neither your realtor nor loan officer have any input over the value. They typically take 5-7 days once ordered by the bank, but Doug recommends putting in a 10 day appraisal contingency when writing your contract to purchase your home. You can only use comparable houses (comps) for those that closed before your home was inspected. You can reach Doug at Doug.Crouse@BMO.com or go to  www.DougCrouse.com.
