22 min - 007 Can You Achieve FI On a PT Salary With Student Loan Debt?
EXTRASODE - 2 for 1 today.
Today I'm debunking the thought that PT school is a bad financial decision. Is it true that we aren't paid as much as we should be for a doctoral degree?Sure. Is the debt we take on insane? Absolutely. But can you live a life of abundance as a PT with this debt and still become financially independent? 100%!!
Pre-PT and SPT's can get discouraged about the decision they've made to become a PT.Current PT's can feel like there is no hope for getting out of their student loans and saving for retirement.I hope you enjoy the episode and let me know your thoughts in the comment GOOD OR BAD. All points are valid.Financial Independence for Physical Therapists FB group
