Title: Physician Financial Planning

Where Are the Doctor Millionaire's?
2
Other Existential Questions Yes No
Does it seem to you like the Government, insurance companies and employers offer you nothing but unattractive business choices?
Do efficiency and quality sound like business terminology borrowed by Medicare, Medicaid and Managed Care to disguise oligopoly and we will pay you what we want to pay you?
Are income and expense pressures, along with spiraling malpractice insurance costs, forcing you out of practice ownership and into employee status? Or forcing you to leave medicine all together?
After all you have been through and the investment of time and money you have made to become a Doctor?
Have you ever been overwhelmed by the business of medicine?
Do you feel financially insecure?

The Tale of Two High School Graduates

Becoming a doctor entails a significant (8-10
year) delay in entering the labor market and
saving for retirement.
This can be costly e.g., a 1,000 investment,
yielding 10, that is not made today will result
in lost earnings of 1,594 over a ten year
period.
Individuals with far less education and income
levels can achieve higher levels of wealth than
doctors, even when they both consistently save at
high rates.
The median net worth of a retiring physician
(1,500,000) may be insufficient to sustain the
standard of living of doctors accustomed to
earning in excess of 100,000 per year during
their careers.
Physicians need to develop strong savings
discipline in order to make up the earnings
forgone during their medical training.
Life-money strategy (aka, financial planning)
promotes savings discipline.
Working with financial professionals who can help
physicians reach top-tier risk-adjusted returns
should be a key component of physicians
financial security strategies.
