In February 2026, an AI tax-planning launch knocked billions off wealth-management stocks in a single day. So is AI coming for your financial advisor? Jimmy is joined by the original Money Meets Medicine co-host, Ryan Inman, who will now be back once a month. Jimmy uses AI tools every day and shares where they shine and where they confidently get it wrong. Ryan brings the part AI can’t do: accountability. They cover what the data says about how many people now ask AI for money advice, why the behavior gap costs investors more than most fees, who is on the hook when an AI answer is wrong, and how doctors should learn personal finance when the answers are free but the follow-through isn’t. Plus, Ryan shares what he built for this new world at Financial Fellowship.

 This week, Jimmy sits down with Bryan Jepson, MD, CFP®, ChSNC®, a retired emergency physician turned financial planner at Targeted Wealth Solutions and a self-described "proud special needs dad" to two adult sons with autism. They cover special needs trusts (first-party vs. third-party), ABLE accounts and the big 2026 changes, which government benefits are means-tested, the beneficiary-designation mistakes that quietly wreck a plan, how to estimate what your child will need after you're gone, and why trustee, guardian, caregiver, and advocate should not automatically be the same person.

Your $75K signing bonus might be a bug, not a feature. If there's a clawback, that money isn't really yours yet.

Dr. Jimmy Turner and Justin Harvey CFP tackle three listener questions: what to do with a physician signing bonus you might have to repay, what to do when a scholarship leaves your 529 overfunded, and whether leaving a W-2 job for 1099 work is worth it. Jimmy, who just made the W-2-to-1099 switch himself, gets candid about the workload nobody mentions.

On the Money Meets Medicine podcast, Dr. Jimmy Turner and CPA Spencer Carroll of Gelt discuss why physicians should plan taxes before December 31 rather than focusing only on filing in spring, citing Turner’s unexpected $36,000 tax bill as a consequence of compliance-only CPA work. They explain year-round tax strategy, the value of Q4 projections to avoid penalties and surprises, and key year-end actions such as paying reasonable S-corp salary by 12/31, making employee solo 401(k) contributions by 12/31 (while some employer contributions and certain plan setups can occur by filing deadlines), HSA timing including the “last month” rule, tax-loss harvesting, managing income/expenses, charitable giving strategies like donor-advised funds, and hiring/payrolling kids or spouses before year-end.

In this episode of Money Meets Medicine, hosts Dr. Jimmy Turner and Justin Harvey tackle three listener questions on personal finance for physicians. They discuss whether HSA-eligible plans make sense during high healthcare-usage periods like pregnancy, charitable giving strategies including donor advised funds and tax-efficient gifting of appreciated securities, and when physicians with significant net worth should consider stopping life and disability insurance premiums. The hosts emphasize personalized decision-making based on individual circumstances, consistently recommending listeners consult qualified financial professionals before making major financial decisions.
