College life is fun! Scavenging for free stuff, going out to eat, hanging out with friends. But it's not so fun when you're walking down the street late at night clutching onto a frying pan, scared for your life. Nor is it fun when you're "studying." I spent two summers at UC Berkeley studying chemistry and living that college life! This is part 1 of my story time because the amount of adventures I went on is too long to clump together in one podcast.

It can be a little sad when we get rejected from our dream schools, but that doesn’t mean we should give up on our future. College is just a stepping stone that’ll guide us to our end goal. As long as you have the education, dorm life, friends, and degree, it doesn’t matter where you go for undergraduate school!

Don't jump on the bandwagon. Be the black sheep and be okay with straying away from the flock. Find the things you love to do and find a way to be financially stable early as you're working towards your dreams! F.I.R.E. means to become Financially Independent so you can Retire Early, so you can follow your dreams instead of waiting until you're 65 and your health isn't what it used to be.

Take it from a chemistry major who was surrounded by biology majors (especially biology premed majors) throughout college and in life. It's pretty useless. I'm not saying that you shouldn't major in biology. It's just what are you going to do with it? Find out my reasoning for why I think biology is useless and that there's better ways to utilize your college experience.

This is Part 1 of my 3 part series on retirement and how we're going to break all the rules in 2020 and get started on living a fulfilling and happy life! Don't let money be the reason why you don't have enough to do everything you love! We've always thought that life happened in a linear fashion: (1) go to school → (2) get a job → (3) retire. What people don't talk about is all the work that comes in between and the chances for things to go wrong! There's always a recession or a bitcoin burst around the corner, so let's get ahead and prevent it! Please don't forget to stick around for Part 2 and 3!

Social life is tough, especially for an 8 year old. As a child, we don't think before we speak, or we just don't think our words hurt. But they actually do. And children are very emotional and impressionable at this age. So much so that it hurt me when someone made fun of me for the Disney shirts I wore to school. Don't be a bully.

Common dual degrees for physicians, whether you're going for an MD or a DO, include MBA, MS, MA, and the most common, PhD. But what about MD/JD or DO/JD? Most people think that these two fields are unrelated or are too hard to go through. Other's believe that it's financially more taxing. It doesn't help how there aren't many people in the world who have done and there aren't many discussions integrating both the medical and law worlds. In this episode, check out how adding a JD to your medical degree isn't so different than a PhD. Physician Lawyers exist.
