WCI #85: The Real Life Financial Experience of a Young Periodontist

In this episode I speak with a young periodontist about his finances. He is doing great, having already paid off all his student loans relatively quickly. But like many of the WCI listeners and readers he started out with a financial advisor that tried to sell him insurance that wasn't right for him and he is in the process of moving on from that financial advisor. He is saving for a house down payment, upgrading a beater car from dental school, saving to buy a practice, and of course, saving for retirement. Lots of competing uses for his money. He has all the same challenges his young physician counterpart has and there is something for most to learn in this episode.
