Sign On Bonus Clawbacks, Overfunded 529s, & 1099 vs W-2 Jobs

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr. Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey CFP) — Wed, 30 Sep 2026 04:00:00 +0000

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.

The Year-End Tax Moves Doctors Miss (w/ Spencer Carroll from Gelt)

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Spencer Carroll CPA, Dr. Jimmy Turner) — Wed, 23 Sep 2026 11:29:50 +0000

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.

5 Bad Pieces of Financial Advice to Avoid

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr. Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey) — Wed, 19 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

On the Money Meets Medicine podcast, Dr. Jimmy Turner and Justin Harvey discuss how common personal finance advice can be especially costly for physicians and outline six “bad advice” items. They warn that disability insurance company choice matters because applying with the wrong carrier can trigger denials that eliminate access to guaranteed standard issue policies; they also caution against waiting until late in training. They argue that saving 10–15% or just maxing a 401(k) is usually insufficient for doctors with delayed earnings and debt, suggesting higher savings rates based on retirement goals. They note student loan consolidation advice has changed under the One Big Beautiful Build Act and may limit repayment plan eligibility. They criticize “pay off all debt before investing,” explain why renting isn’t necessarily “throwing money away,” and argue that asking if an advisor is a fiduciary is no longer reliable, favoring fee-only transparency.

Should I Invest in SpaceX? (Lessons from SpaceX IPO)

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey CFP) — Wed, 12 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

SpaceX priced at $135 a share, raised $75 billion, and hit an all-time high of $225 within days — then fell to $107. Dr. Jimmy Turner and Justin Harvey CFP break down how index funds actually decide what gets included in the index, why the S&P 500 said no to SpaceX while CRSP and the Russell 1000 said yes, and what that means for the total stock market index fund in your 401(k).

What you'll learn:

Why an index fund doesn't pick stocks — it follows 3 rules: seasoning, profitability, and float
How Nasdaq, Russell 1000, and CRSP cut IPO seasoning for SpaceX
Why your money in an IPO often funds the private investors cashing out on the other side

Are Doctors Fairly Paid? Inside the 2026 Compensation Data

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr. Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey CFP) — Wed, 5 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

28% of physicians say they don't earn enough for what their family needs. The lowest-paid specialty still makes $266,000.

Medscape's 2026 physician compensation report surveyed roughly 6,000 doctors across 29+ specialties, and the numbers tell a stranger story than "doctors are underpaid." Average pay rose 3%, barely clearing inflation, and nine specialties were flat or down. Jimmy and Justin unpack what the data says about physician pay, negotiation, and the 40% side-gig statistic.

What you'll learn:

Why primary care averaged $298K and specialists $417K — and which specialties outpaced inflation
What percentage of physicians negotiated their compensation, and how many just took what they were given
Why "we don't negotiate" pay models push high performers out
The paradox: 53% feel personally fairly paid, but 61% say the profession is underpaid
What the 40% side-gig number reveals about autonomy and moral injury

Trump accounts — technically the 530A — went live July 4th, and Justin Harvey opened three for his own kids just to see how they work. These accounts are child-owned, they behave like a traditional IRA, and they come with rules most physicians haven't heard yet.

Why FIRE Isn't the Goal (FIWO)

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey CFP) — Wed, 1 Jul 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Dr. Jimmy Turner cut back to part-time at 35—and ended up on antidepressants. FIRE wasn't the escape hatch he expected.

FIRE—financial independence, retire early—promises an exit from burnout. But what happens when you finally get there and realize you don't know who you are without medicine? Jimmy and Justin make the case for FIWO (financial independence, work optional) instead.

Saving Less Saved My Career (Coast FIRE)

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Justin Harvey CFP, Dr. Jimmy Turner) — Wed, 24 Jun 2026 10:48:33 +0000

What if your first three years as an attending decide whether you work three days a week in your 40s—or six days into your 60s?

Dr. Jimmy Turner burned out early in his career—antidepressants, 1.3 FTE, the works—before discovering the fix: working less. He and Justin Harvey, CFP, break down Coast FIRE, your Wealth Accumulation Rate, and why the savings decisions you make right out of training set a trajectory you'll feel for decades.

What you'll learn:

Why a ~30% Wealth Accumulation Rate early on can buy you a 3-day clinical week later
How Coast FIRE lets you save less down the road and still reach financial independence on time
The two kinds of autonomy—personal and professional—that really drive physician burnout

Why Many Doctors Live Paycheck to Paycheck

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr. Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey) — Wed, 17 Jun 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Physicians earning $400K are living paycheck to paycheck—and an 18th-century psychology trap is why.

Roughly 30% of doctors over 60 don't have $1M in net worth, even counting their home. Justin Harvey and Dr. Jimmy Turner unpack the behavioral-finance forces—the Diderot Effect, lifestyle creep, and leverage—that quietly erode physician wealth, and the simple framework that lets you spend guilt-free while still building real options.

Is Loan Forgiveness Worth a $300K Tax Bill?

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr. Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey CFP) — Wed, 10 Jun 2026 04:00:00 +0000

There are two ways to get your student loans forgiven — and the one nobody talks about could leave you with a six-figure tax bill.

Most physicians know PSLF. Far fewer understand taxable forgiveness — the IDR path that hands you a massive tax bill 20 years down the road. Jimmy and Justin break down a real listener question (anesthesiologist + dentist, $400K in loans at 7%) to show why "married filing separately" math isn't as clean as it looks, and why your repayment plan now hinges on a looming July 2026 deadline.

New Student Loan Rules: The $100K Mistake

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr. Jimmy Turner) — Wed, 3 Jun 2026 04:00:00 +0000

One student loan decision in the next few weeks could cost — or save — a physician six figures.

On May 1, 2026, the Department of Education finalized the 134-page rule rewriting federal student loan repayment. Dr. Jimmy Turner goes solo to break down what changed and the moves that protect six figures.

What you'll learn:

Why the July 1, 2026 cutoff decide whether you keep IBR at all
The consolidation trap that can permanently lock residents out of IBR
The RAP interest subsidy that keeps a $300K balance from ballooning during residency

Should You Rent or Sell Your House When You Move?

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr. Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey CFP) — Wed, 27 May 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Becoming an accidental landlord could cost you a six-figure tax bill — or be the smartest move you make. You're finishing training, moving cities, and that house you bought a few years ago — the one with the enviably low mortgage — is suddenly a decision: sell it and pocket the equity, or rent it out and start building "passive income"? It sounds simple. It isn't. Dr. Jimmy Turner and Justin Harvey, CFP®, break down the real math behind renting vs. selling your home as a physician — and the IRS clock most people don't realize is already running.

What you'll learn:

How Section 121's $500K capital gains exclusion works — and the 2-out-of-5-year rule that quietly creates six-figure tax bills
Why "I have a 3% mortgage" is golden handcuffs, not a strategy
The honest cost of becoming an accidental landlord — property management, the 1% maintenance rule, the curveballs
When renting during a fellowship is a smart, low-risk way to test landlording
Why real estate tax breaks aren't free — what 1031s and "die-with-it" actually require

40% of Doctors Have a Side Gig. Most Set It Up Wrong.

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Justin Harvey CFP, Dr. Jimmy Turner) — Wed, 20 May 2026 04:00:00 +0000

40% of doctors have a side gig — and most are one contract clause away from handing it to their employer. Forty percent of physicians now run a side gig — chart reviews, expert witness work, SaaS tools, real estate, content, consulting. But here's what nobody covered in residency: most are leaving money on the table at tax time, mixing business and personal finances into an unfixable mess, or unknowingly signing away their intellectual property in an employment contract they barely skimmed. In this episode of Money Meets Medicine, Dr. Jimmy Turner and CFP Justin Harvey unpack what physicians actually need to know before they earn their first non-clinical dollar — and what to do once they're already five figures a month in. If you've ever wondered whether you should be an S Corp, whether your hospital can claim your nights-and-weekends project, or whether business ownership is even worth the headache, this one is for you.

An orthopedic surgeon writes in: he's pulling $550K at an academic center and has quietly built an AI-powered prior authorization SaaS now generating five figures a month. What should he be thinking about? Jimmy and Justin use that question as a launchpad into the financial reality of physician non-clinical income — the ups, the downs, and the surprisingly counterintuitive parts.

Jimmy, recently transitioned from 15 years as a W-2 academic anesthesiologist to a 1099 private practice gig, shares why business ownership has been more stressful than running codes — and why he's still glad he did it. He explains why a $30,000 surprise tax bill finally pushed him to bring in a real tax strategy team (not the February-only compliance CPA most physicians settle for), and the difference between the two.

The conversation digs into the Medscape 2025 numbers: 40% of physicians have a side gig, 50% between ages 40 and 50, and 60% say they're doing it for extra income. Most physicians aren't actually trying to leave medicine — they're trying to build enough financial freedom to practice on their own terms. Sometimes a $60,000 side income buys back a day of the week.

Justin pushes on the harder questions: What's your goal? What's the actual ROI once you factor in CPA fees, self-employment tax, and the brain space business ownership demands? Why some physicians thrive in 1099-land and others should sprint back to W-2.

They also walk through the practical setup — the deceptively simple three-step LLC-EIN-bank-account process most physicians overcomplicate or skip entirely — and the contract landmine almost no academic physician thinks about: who actually owns the work you do on nights and weekends. Plus the tax-strategy doors most W-2 doctors don't realize are closed to them: S Corp elections, QBI, solo 401(k)s, cash balance plans, and pass-through entity tax.

If you're already running a side gig or seriously thinking about one, this is the cheat sheet you wish someone had handed you before you started.

What You'll Learn

Why 40% of physicians now run a side gig — and the real reason most start one (it's not what you think)
The three-step business setup most physicians overcomplicate: LLC, EIN, separate bank account
How an employment contract clause can quietly hand your side gig over to your hospital — and how to negotiate it before you sign
When a tax strategy team actually pays for itself versus when basic compliance is enough
The ROI math on 1099 income: what your side gig really needs to clear after self-employment tax, professional fees, and added complexity
Side gigs with lower ceilings but much higher odds of success — and why 90% of online businesses fail

New Attending Financial Checklist: Money Mistakes to Avoid

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey CFP) — Wed, 13 May 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The 12 to 24 months after residency set the trajectory for your entire financial life — and most physicians get it wrong. In this episode, Jimmy and Justin walk through the financial checklist every new attending needs: why you should start a taxable brokerage account immediately (not just max your retirement accounts), how to build a student loan plan before RAP and IBR rules shift, the backdoor Roth transition, vesting schedules that can cost you tens of thousands, and the lifestyle inflation trap that quietly delays financial independence. You can have anything you want — just not everything.

When Can I Get Rid of My Disability Insurance?

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Justin Harvey CFP, Dr. Jimmy Turner) — Wed, 6 May 2026 04:00:00 +0000

There's a point in every physician's career where you can stop paying for disability insurance — and most doctors have no idea when that point arrives. In this episode, Dr. Jimmy Turner and Justin Harvey, CFP® break down the full physician insurance stack and tackle a question they've never covered in 270+ episodes: when (if ever) should you drop your disability and term life insurance policies?

What you'll learn:

Why own-occupation DI is the #1 financial priority for every doctor — even before paying off credit card debt
How to make DI affordable on a resident budget
Why you should secure disability insurance BEFORE term life (an underwriting issue most docs never hear about)
Tail coverage red flags to negotiate before signing a contract
The "leverage frame" for keeping coverage after you hit financial independence

Jimmy also shares his own cautionary tale: bad advice from an insurance agent as an MS4 left him permanently uninsurable for DI coverage. Don't let that be you.

Why Doctors Work Longer Than They Need To (One More Year Syndrome)

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey) — Wed, 29 Apr 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The biggest financial mistake high-earning physicians make isn't overspending — it's the exact opposite.

In this episode of the Money Meets Medicine podcast, Dr. Jimmy Turner and Justin Harvey, CFP® dive into one of the most overlooked challenges in physician personal finance: the super saver trap. While most financial advice for doctors focuses on avoiding lifestyle inflation, living like a resident, and preventing the Diderot Effect, Jimmy and Justin tackle the other side of the coin — what happens when financially literate physicians save too much and can't flip the switch to actually enjoy their wealth.

In this episode, you'll learn:

Why the traditional "live like a resident" advice can backfire for financially literate physicians
How the 10% Rule allows you to enjoy lifestyle upgrades without sabotaging your financial future
The identity crisis that hits doctors when they realize they could go part-time, cut back to 3 days a week, or retire early
Why "one more year syndrome" keeps physicians grinding long after they've reached financial independence
How to balance saving, spending, and living a life you actually enjoy as a high-income earner
The values-based decision-making framework Justin uses with clients facing major financial trade-offs (home upgrades, practice ownership, business launches)
Why dying with too much money is a real risk for financially literate doctors — and how to avoid it
How to use the Kinder questions to uncover what you actually want from financial independence

Jimmy shares his personal journey of saving over a third of his income early in his attending career, then deliberately scaling back to take a lower-paying job 30 minutes from home so he could coach his kids' baseball team and be present for his family. Justin shares a real client story about a physician weighing a $2.7 million home purchase against time to retirement, work-life balance, and family values.

Whether you're a resident, fellow, early-career attending, or established physician approaching financial independence, this episode will challenge you to ask the harder existential questions: What is enough? When can you flip the switch? And are you using money as a tool — or letting it use you?

Should I Consolidate My Loans, PSLF, and Buying a Home

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey CFP) — Wed, 22 Apr 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Dr. Jimmy Turner hosts a solo Money Meets Medicine mailbag addressing timely physician finance questions, emphasizing that trainees should secure disability insurance before finishing training because guaranteed standard issue (GSI) policies are only available during training and many doctors need them. He explains 2026 federal student-loan changes under OBBBA, advising residents planning aggressive payoff to avoid refinancing in training, exit the defunct SAVE plan, and consider the Repayment Assistance Plan (RAP) for its interest subsidy and flexibility. He warns fourth-year med students pursuing PSLF not to consolidate loans to skip the grace period, because a post–July 1, 2026 consolidation can eliminate IBR eligibility and lead to much higher payments versus IBR’s cap.

Tax Day: How to Save Money on Taxes as a Physician

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Justin Harvey CFP, Dr. Jimmy Turner) — Wed, 15 Apr 2026 04:00:00 +0000

On the Money Meets Medicine podcast, host Dr. Jimmy Turner and co-host Justin Harvey CFP discuss Jimmy's surprise $36,000 2025 tax bill after household income rose into the $500,000–$1,000,000 range, phasing out tax breaks like the child tax credit and qualified business deduction, and raising his effective rate from ~25% to 31%.

They review contributors, such as using Roth 401(k)/403(b) contributions (increasing taxable income) and taking the standard deduction after front-loading charitable deductions via a donor-advised fund in 2024. They explain safe harbor concepts, note new tax changes from the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (including SALT cap rising to $40,000 but phasing back to $10,000 as income approaches ~$600,000), and emphasize year-ahead planning to manage AGI. And they even discuss one of the most over-hyped opportunities pitched at physicians that you should consider avoiding.

They also share what's actually worked in their own families to teach kids about money — from the three-jar system to Apple Pay allowances to the parent match strategy.

How to Negotiate Sign on Bonuses for Physicians

Wed, 1 Apr 2026 04:00:00 +0000

In this episode of Money Meets Medicine, Dr. Jimmy Turner and physician contract attorney Michael Johnson break down the personal finance side of physician compensation. From negative accrual contracts that treat your salary like a loan, to sign-on bonus clawback traps that can lock you into a bad job for years, they cover the financial landmines most doctors never see coming.

You'll learn why some doctors end up owing money back to their employer, how a collections-based pay model left one physician with a six-figure IRS bill, and the sneaky ways sign-on bonuses can limit your career flexibility. Michael also walks through retirement matching pitfalls (and how a change in 401k contributions can quietly cut your compensation by $15,000+), the hidden cost of maternity leave when bonus structures aren't prorated, and why so many physicians in production models stop taking vacations entirely.

Plus, practical strategies for negotiating reduced FTEs, flexible schedules, and better clawback terms — whether you're finishing training or considering a job change.

Topics covered: negative accrual contracts, physician sign-on bonus clawbacks, 401k/403b employer matching, maternity leave compensation, physician contract negotiation, reduced FTE scheduling, collections-based pay, estimated taxes for 1099 physicians, and disability insurance for residents.

Should Physicians Buy or Rent? How Much Should A Doctor Spend Buying a Home?

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Justin Harvey CFP, Dr. Jimmy Turner) — Wed, 25 Mar 2026 04:00:00 +0000

In this episode, Jimmy and Justin break down the real numbers behind the buy vs. rent decision at every stage of the physician journey — from fourth-year med students who just matched, to residents weighing whether homeownership makes sense during a 3-4 year program, to new attendings figuring out how much house they can actually afford.

They cover Zillow's break-even data (hint: it takes about 4-5 years on average for buying to beat renting), why that number swings wildly by city (Cleveland is ~2 years, San Francisco is 15), the dangers of the "2-3x gross income" rule of thumb in a 6%+ rate environment, and why keeping your mortgage under a third of take-home pay is a better guardrail. Plus: why renting your first year as an attending might be the smartest financial move you make, the risks of physician home loans with no money down, and what self-employed doctors need to know before applying for a mortgage.

Whether you just matched, you're finishing residency, or you're eyeing a job change, this episode gives you the framework to make a housing decision that doesn't wreck your path to financial independence.

How to Turn Credit Card Points into Free Travel (With Points by J)

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Jess Bohorquez, Jimmy Turner) — Wed, 18 Mar 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Dr. Jimmy Turner sits down with Jess Bohorquez, creator of Points by J and wife of an OB-GYN physician, to talk about how medical families can use credit card points to travel more without spending more. Jess left a corporate tech career to build a business helping people maximize credit card rewards, and she's grown her Instagram following to over 200,000 in the process.

In this episode, Jimmy and Jess cover why transferring points out of your credit card's travel portal gets you dramatically more value, how to audit your existing cards to make sure you're actually using the perks you're paying for, and why opening multiple credit cards doesn't destroy your credit score (as long as you're responsible). Jess also shares how she and her husband redeemed 209,000 points for a $13,000 stay at Miraval Arizona, and how they enjoyed over $35,000 in free travel to Hawaii and Japan in a single year.

They also discuss the current credit card landscape, including record-high signup bonuses, recent Hyatt point devaluations, and why now is a particularly important time to stay plugged into your points strategy.

Why Physicians Can Save Less and Still Retire Early (Update on The 4% Rule)

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Justin Harvey, Jimmy Turner) — Wed, 11 Mar 2026 04:00:00 +0000

What if you're saving more than you need to — and burning out in the process? In this episode, Jimmy shares how sitting down and doing the math changed his entire career trajectory, going from 1.3 FTE and antidepressants to part-time at 40 with a $2.1M net worth. Jimmy and Justin break down new research from Bill Bengen on safe withdrawal rates (spoiler: it may be higher than 4%), how to figure out what you actually need to retire, and why your future expenses are probably lower than you think. Plus, Justin shares the advisor's perspective on conservative assumptions, spending flexibility, and the risk of becoming a miser. Whether you're a DIY investor or working with an advisor, this episode will help you figure out your real number — and what to do once you know it.

Why Doctors Save Too Much and Live Too Little

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey) — Wed, 25 Feb 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Should physicians trade their time for money — or is that equation fundamentally broken? In this episode, we unpack why so many doctors save too much for too long, sacrificing their best years to build a nest egg they struggle to spend. Drawing from Vicki Robin's Your Money or Your Life, Morgan Housel's Psychology of Money, and Bill Perkins' Die With Zero, we explore a healthier framework for thinking about time, money, and financial independence as a physician.

Jimmy also shares a major personal update — after nearly twenty years at Wake Forest, he's making a career change that trades income for autonomy. No more nights, weekends, or holidays, but it comes at a real financial cost. It's the perfect case study for everything we discuss in this episode.

We break down the three stages of a doctor's financial life — from residency where you have neither time nor money, to mid-career where you finally have income but no time, to financial independence where you get both back. The problem? Most physicians get stuck in the middle stage far longer than they need to because of identity inertia, golden handcuffs, lifestyle lock-in, and the fear of earning less.

If you've ever wondered whether you should work less, take the pay cut, or keep grinding toward a number — this one's for you.

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr. Jimmy Turner, Justin Harvey CFP) — Wed, 8 Oct 2025 04:00:00 +0000

Did you know that 90% of families lose their wealth by the third generation?

Jimmy reflects on turning 40, childhood memories of bankruptcy, and how those experiences created a scarcity mindset he’s had to actively overcome. Justin shares insights from working with clients whose core money beliefs—formed in childhood—still drive their decisions decades later. Together, they explore how to move from victim to victor when it comes to financial identity, and how to help your children build healthy money habits even in an environment of abundance.

From practical parenting tips to mindset shifts, this episode blends personal reflection, financial psychology, and real-life stories to help you rewrite your own money narrative—and guide the next generation to do the same.

Should Physicians Invest in Bonds?

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Wed, 17 Sep 2025 04:00:00 +0000

In this episode of Money Meets Medicine, Justin Harvey and Dr. Jimmy Turner tackle a classic investing question: do high-earning physicians really need bonds in their portfolio?

They break down:

Why Jimmy avoids bonds (less than 5% of his portfolio) and instead leans heavily on diversified index funds.

When bonds can make sense, such as reducing volatility for investors nearing retirement or with specific cash needs.

How bonds actually work: creditworthiness, yields, coupons, and the role of interest rate sensitivity (a.k.a. duration).

The risks of “safe” bonds, including how inflation and rising interest rates can erode returns and undermine their role as a portfolio stabilizer.

Practical strategies: bond ladders, TIPS (Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities), short-duration ETFs, and asset location (where bonds belong in taxable vs. retirement accounts).

Is Real Estate Bad for Doctors?

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Wed, 10 Sep 2025 04:00:00 +0000

In this episode of Money Meets Medicine, Dr. Jimmy Turner and Justin Harvey tackle the hype around real estate investing for physicians. Despite years teaching personal finance, Jimmy reveals he owns zero real estate—and explains why that’s intentional.

The duo explores the four major reasons real estate isn’t the right fit for Jimmy:

It’s a Second (or Third) Job – With a busy career in medicine and financial education, Jimmy isn’t interested in managing properties or even managing property managers.

Illiquidity – Tying up large chunks of money in illiquid deals (like syndications) doesn’t align with his need for flexibility.

Tax Complexity – Real estate’s tax benefits can come with audit risks and a need for specialized accountants—adding more layers to an already complex financial life.

FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) – Too many doctors get lured in by hype and peer pressure, not by sound financial strategy.

Justin adds insights from his financial planning practice, noting generational differences in attitudes toward real estate and highlighting the dangers of chasing "sexy" investments without considering your goals and risk profile.

Plus, Jimmy plugs his Beginner’s Guide to Bitcoin for Busy Doctors, available at moneymeetsmedicine.com/bitcoin.

How does personal finance and financial independence play a part in physician burnout? That’s what we discuss in this episode.

Buying Versus Renting a House

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (CFP, MD and Justin Harvey, James D Turner) — Wed, 17 Apr 2024 05:00:00 +0000

One of the most common questions I get is whether a doctor should buy or rent a house. Sometimes this is after training when considering buying or renting a house at their first job. Even more often it is following medical school when soon-to-be residents and physicians are trying to decide if they should buy or rent.

In this episode, we discuss the time you need to stay, the current housing market, and other considerations physicians should have to decide whether they should buy or rent a home.

If you’ve ever wanted to fly first class but thought it was too expensive, this interview is for you.

Devon Gimbel, MD is known for helping physicians maximize rewards from credit card points so they can travel more, travel better, and travel often.

This feels like an especially relevant and timely conversation – especially since the data shows that about 38% of doctors have 3-4 different credit cards.

We have to wonder: should all doctors be using credit cards to optimize points and perks?

Six-figure Student Loan Mistakes

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr. Jimmy Turner and Dr. Lisha Taylor) — Wed, 11 Oct 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Let’s just be real: student loan guidelines are confusing and they’re constantly changing.

But if you’re like many physicians who have student loans, you’re well aware that if your payments haven’t resumed yet, they’re about to.

You want to make sure you’re on track and have a plan for repayment, so you can move confidently forward with your personal finance goals.

Student loan advice is also one of the things we love helping people with at Attend.

Following the Financial Crowd

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Dr. Jimmy Turner and Dr. Lisha Taylor) — Wed, 4 Oct 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Have you ever left a sporting event, following the crowd, and suddenly realized you were walking the wrong way? What if I told you this phenomenon has a name, and it impacts your money, too?

Understanding our own behavior when it comes to finance is essential because it helps us mitigate wrong-for-us decision making around money. Unless you know these roadblocks exist, you can’t do much to stop them from derailing your financial goals.

Last week, we shared why human behavior matters for our financial lives by taking a look at the first 5 out of 10 psychological phenomena that can (and do) affect your personal finance goals: greed, fear, ego/overconfidence, loss aversion, and analysis paralysis.

This week, we’re diving back into behavioral finance (one of our favorite topics) to share five more types of unchecked human behavior that can sabotage your journey to building the wealth you want.

Greed, FOMO, and Bad Investments

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (MD and Lisha Taylor, MD, Jimmy Turner) — Wed, 27 Sep 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Despite our best intentions, certain emotions can keep us from building wealth. After many years arming physicians with the information they need to achieve financial wellness, I had a significant realization.

Information is one thing – behavior is another.

As the saying goes, money is 80% behavior and only 20% math.

Not only do I want to share important information about personal finance, I also want to help you recognize how certain behaviors can (and do) affect your finances.

Drawing from one of the classic books about investing, let’s go over five common behaviors that could be keeping you from achieving your financial goals.

How Doctors Can Get Good Financial Advice

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (MD, MD and Lisha Taylor, Jimmy Turner) — Wed, 20 Sep 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Many doctors and high-income professionals hire financial advisors for any number of reasons. Either they’re too busy to handle their finances themselves, they don’t really know how to invest, or they want an expert on their side to make sure they’re on the right track.

So allow me to say from the start: I’m not against financial advisors, but I am against doctors (or anyone, really) being overcharged for bad advice.

There’s no shame in asking for help – you just want to get the help you need at a fair price.

You should be equipped enough to vet and evaluate your financial advisor so you’ll know whether they’re working well on your behalf. How can you be as confident as possible they’re acting in your best interest? This episode will help you find out.

Dr. Peter Kim and Physician Entrepreneurship

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (MD and Lisha Taylor, Jimmy Turner, MD) — Wed, 13 Sep 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Have you ever thought about using real estate to reach financial independence, but you didn't want to be a landlord?

Recently I sat down with one of my good friends and one of the OG partners of The Physician Philosopher. He’s an anesthesiologist, husband, father, entrepreneur, as well as a real estate and physician side gig guru – of course, I’m talking about Dr. Peter Kim.

One of the interesting things about Peter's story is his transition from full-time practice as an OB anesthesiologist to stepping away from medicine and going part-time, to now his being on sabbatical. He's not sure if that's a permanent sabbatical or not, so we got to explore his thought process on that and his story.

So let’s dive into this discussion with Dr. Peter Kim and the intersection of all things entrepreneurship, side gigs, medicine, money, and real estate.

Disappointing Physician Income & the Arrival Fallacy

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (MD and Lisha Taylor, Jimmy Turner, MD) — Wed, 6 Sep 2023 05:00:00 +0000

The arrival fallacy is a concept that’s very prevalent in medicine. Coined by Tal Ben-Shahar, it refers to the illusion of happiness that we think we’ll experience when we arrive at a completed goal or achievement (spoiler: it doesn’t work like that).

In medicine in particular, this is reinforced with lots of delayed gratification and long training periods with limited free time and low pay.

We think that finally achieving the next level (whether it’s residency, fellowship, or attending, receiving a bonus, a raise, etc.) will instantly make our lives better, because we’ll have more money and more control over our schedule.

We constantly look for “the light at the end of the tunnel” to get ourselves through years of grueling assignments and shifts. But a lot of the time we reach these specific benchmarks – or, we “arrive” – and it’s not at all how we thought it would be.

Gertrude Stein was right when she said, “There’s no there, there.”

How does the arrival fallacy come into play when we reach attending status and start pulling in a whole new pay grade? Let’s examine that…

Dr. Sabry’s recent trip to Africa – the most time off she’s taken outside maternity leave
Whether she’s always been financially savvy
The way she utilized her disability insurance

Doctors in Venture Capitalism with Dr Omar Nije

Wed, 23 Aug 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Recently Lisha and I sat down with Dr. Omar Nije to talk about his experience as a doctor in finance.

Dr. Nije’s perspective is unique because he’s both a physician AND a principal, but not in public education. He’s a principal at a venture capitalist firm, which is a world that most physicians I know haven’t been exposed to. Up until about 6 months ago, it was something I didn’t know much about myself.

Join the conversation to learn more about:

What venture capitalism is
Dr. Omar’s journey from medical school to principal at a VC firm
His connection to Attend, the company I co-founded
His mission to create more diverse opportunities in VC

Talking About Finances With Your Partner

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (MD, Jimmy Turner, MD and Lisha Taylor) — Wed, 9 Aug 2023 05:00:00 +0000

According to studies conducted by the American Psychological Association, the number one financial stressor for households is money - personal finance. That makes talking about money with your partner a really important topic for everybody to understand.

Why is talking about money with your partner important?

For alignment with your partner
To ensure you’re working towards the same goals
Personal finance is one of the top reasons for divorce
Divorce is one of the biggest wealth-killers

I want you to live a life of wellness, and for many people that means having the money you need and people you love to share it with.

So whether you're married or not, you should be having financial conversations with the significant other in your life.

The Importance of Keeping Investing Stupid Simple (KISS)

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (MD and Lisha Taylor, Jimmy Turner, MD) — Wed, 2 Aug 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Did you know that when it comes to investing, keeping it simple often leads to better returns?

Keeping it simple is not just my or Lisha’s opinion - studies show that this is a more effective, sustainable way to go about investing.

Why? Because it turns out that as humans, we don't like as many choices as we think we do. We take action less often when we feel overwhelmed with choices. Just think of the last time you asked your partner where they wanted to go for dinner…

In fact, in a jam (yes, jam) display study on consumer habits, a display case with 24 varieties of jam received more customer traffic but ten times fewer sales than a display case featuring only 6 jams. When we have too many choices, we often don’t choose at all. Also known as: analysis paralysis.

We love talking about the psychology of investing, so let’s dive into some of those principles and how simplicity can help you when it comes to real-life application.

In this episode, we discuss:Examples of analysis paralysis (7:25)
How Lisha operates psychologically when it comes to investing (10:06)
A great way to start when you’re new to investing (15:49)

The Superpowers of a Taxable Brokerage Account

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 08:00:00 +0000

A lot of us have an idea of what we should do with money that we earn on a regular basis from our physician jobs. Oftentimes it goes towards our typical cost of living expenses: bills, debts, savings, investments. But what about money you get that you weren't expecting? Because yes, most of us will, at some point, get at least a little money that we didn't expect. Regardless of the source – whether it’s an inheritance, a tax refund, or a bonus at work – we end up with one question.

Is it wrong for doctors to retire early?

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 07:00:00 +0000

When it comes to doctors retiring early because of F.I.R.E. (financial independence retire early), there’s an inevitable argument made against it and why it’s ethically wrong for physicians to do. That argument says unless you practice medicine until the day you die, it's unacceptable. Whether it’s citing a physician shortage that doesn’t really exist or feeling as though doctors shouldn’t retire early because we’re doing something good for society, some feel like we should give of our time, skills, and talents as long as possible, discounting the sacrifices that doctors have already made up until this point. They don’t realize that a 30 year career is actually 40 based on the amount of hours most physicians work in a week. But… Why even have this conversation? Are doctors actually retiring early? Doximity’s 2021 study found that 21.8% of physicians considered early retirement due to overwork. Around 25% of women physicians considered early retirement, and 40% of medical groups saw doctors retire early from their medical group. These numbers are not small. So let’s explore some of the possibilities around F.I.R.E. for physicians that can make life feel more liveable and enjoyable again.

The Most Important Financial Task for Doctors

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 06:00:00 +0000

Physician disability insurance is something you have to get right. If you were to learn only one thing from me, this might be the one thing that I would want you to know. It’s the reason that Money Meets Medicine exists, and why I started The Physician Philosopher. Your most important financial asset is your ability to earn an income. You work hard to get your training protecting this asset, and your ability to accumulate an income and everything else we teach you doesn't matter if you don't make money first. This is why physician disability insurance is so important. But there are a lot of misconceptions about disability insurance, and our goal here is to clear some of that up.

Should You Save for Your Kid’s College Education?

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 05:00:00 +0000

What if I told you that maybe you shouldn't save for your kid's college education? There are tons of questions we have to ask ourselves (not just as parents, but as investors) about the concept of covering our kid’s entire college education. Are we really getting the value from this investment? Maybe tuition is worth $100,000 dollars, but is it worth a quarter of a million dollars? And how much am I willing to contribute? To me, it’s an obvious choice if it comes down to saving for your kid’s college education versus your own retirement (retirement all day), but it’s a choice that gives a lot of physician parents heartburn. Good news, though: there are more than just these two options. Set for Life Insurance → Looking to increase your financial literacy? Check out Medical Degree Financial University →

Should You Die with Zero?

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 04:00:00 +0000

We’re pleased to be discussing the book by Bill Perkins. Bill isn’t a financial advisor (a plus if you ask us), but he offers a lot of insight and perspective on personal finance and financial independence that got us thinking about our approaches to money in a new way. It’s especially applicable to us as doctors. On one end of the spectrum, we have the doctors who are in a race to reach financial independence and rarely take time to stop and smell the roses. On the other end of the spectrum, we have those who spent years delaying gratification to get through medical training who are living in full YOLO mode without enough planning for the future. Die With Zero is an interesting book because it bridges these two ends of the spectrum. Set for Life Insurance → Looking to increase your financial literacy?

Show Me the Money (in the Financial Industry)

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 03:00:00 +0000

The personal finance industry is meant to help you manage your assets, but particularly for doctors, many questions remain around what that kind of support actually means. Does your financial advisor have your best interest at heart? Do you know how they get paid? Are they transparent in their disclosures about how their company actually works? Where are the conflicts of interest? Because you can rest assured there are conflicts of interest. It’s just a matter of how they show up. And once you can say “Show me the money” and find them, that’s when you can make intentional, informed decisions regarding your personal finance.

Charitable Giving for Physicians

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 02:00:00 +0000

Does tithing or charitable giving play a part in your personal finances? Should it? As usual, we’re not shying away from taking a deep dive into a very personal topic. Personal finance is personal, maybe never more so than when it comes to deciding how you want to give back. In tackling this topic, we wanted to acknowledge the two main reasons you may be considering your options for charitable giving, especially as a high-earning physician. One is that you may have religious convictions that make you feel more inclined to give. Even if you don’t hold to the same belief system that we do – specifically around tithing and the historical background of that concept – giving to your community is very valuable. Not just for the recipient, but for you, the giver. This leads us into reason two, which is that giving money (or other valuable resources) and helping others has been shown to increase long-term satisfaction and fulfillment in your life. There’s also a practical side of financial charitable giving to consider, which are the tax advantages you can use to create the most bang for your buck - literally.

Making the Most of Your Paycheck

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 01:00:00 +0000

You’ve done it - your training is complete and now you’re finally getting a paycheck fit for an attending physician. You think, “I’ve arrived! I’m going to start making so much more money.” Famous last words. If you’re not prepared, that is. Seemingly unassuming, everyday expenses still have the potential to wreck your new paycheck and your budget. I’ve seen it many times over the years: you try to be careful, but you (understandably) want to enjoy your hard-earned money. Costs creep up on you, things snowball. Suddenly, your post-tax paycheck is no different than it was in residency. You thought you knew how to spend money wisely, but now you wonder, “What was the point of all my hard work to get here?” Don’t worry. You can still enjoy the money you make while being aware of five main money traps that a high-income earner like you could be susceptible to if you’re not paying attention.

7 Ways to Avoid Early Retirement Tax

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 00:00:00 +0000

Advocates of FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) often talk about the end result of using their model: freedom with your time, money, and resources. And far be it from me to argue with those concepts. I am not anti-FIRE – after all, I want you to find financial freedom so you can practice medicine because you want to and not because you have to. However, what we’ve found is that FIRE proponents don’t often talk about the actual path to financial freedom – the how of it all, and what it actually looks like once you reach your early retirement goal. Specifically, how do you even access your retirement funds ahead of time? Because there’s a 10% tax penalty for early retirement withdrawal before you reach age 59 and a half. And that’s on top of the amount you’re already set to be taxed for using pre-tax funds. So… what gives? If you want to retire by age 45 or 50, you have to know how to bridge that 10% gap. So we’ve compiled several different options you can research (because personal finance is personal) and make educated choices towards your own early retirement goals.

How Doctors Can Get the Best Financial Advice

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (The Physician Philosopher) — Sun, 9 Jul 2023 23:00:00 +0000

If you’ve thought about getting financial advice from a professional but weren’t sure who to trust or how to start, you’re not alone – and your concerns are not unfounded. Our aim isn’t to make every doctor in our listenership into a financial guru, but to avoid being so reliant on a financial advisor that you don’t know what’s going on with your money. When it comes to finding a truly helpful financial advisor for doctors, certain criteria need to be met that might not need to be taken into consideration in other professions. To that end, I have a list of traits to share called The Four Fs, and it’s been really impactful in helping physicians find a financial advisor that makes sense for them.

One thing we can agree on about today’s topic is this: doctors historically are under-savers. But when it comes to physician money management, exactly how much doctors should be saving is hotly contested.

Our brains are not wired to think exponentially. They are wired to think linearly. Maybe this explains why so many doctors, well people in general, don't invest early enough and take advantage of one of our favorite tools- compound interest. We like to believe that compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world. So on today's episode of Money Meets Medicine, we want to explain the magic of compound interest and show you how exponential growth is going to blow your mind.

Saving for Tomorrow While Enjoying Today

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Jimmy Turner, MD, MD and Lisha Taylor) — Wed, 14 Jun 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Did you know that it's possible to make great financial progress while you spend money on things you enjoy? Yep, you read that right.

It might be surprising to hear this in the financial space, but you worked hard to get to where you are. You deserve to enjoy some of the spoils and riches of all of that work that you put in to go through college, medical school, and residency.

In the physician finance blogosphere, there are financial gurus that are out there who paint a dichotomous picture of only two possible money management options. Either you eat ramen for five years after you finish residency so you can meet your financial goals. Or you fall into the camp of YOLO hedonism, living it up, spending every dime and not saving anything.

This black-and-white approach skips the view that you can do a little bit of both.

You can be financially responsible for those first three to five years and for every year after that. AND, at the same time, you can actually enjoy life.

It’s about finding balance.

Pre-Tax versus Roth Investments

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Jimmy Turner, MD, MD and Lisha Taylor) — Wed, 31 May 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Maybe you're starting your intern year and you're considering investing as one of your steps in that journey. As July approaches, maybe you’re transitioning as a trainee from an institution or to a new job, you might be asking yourself, “Should I be investing in pre-tax vs Roth?”

It’s a really interesting topic and an important question, especially as interest rates and inflation changes.

When someone slides that 401k or that 403b form in front of you, it often gives you the option to choose whether you want to invest in a traditional pre-tax method where the money is taken out of your paycheck before it ever gets taxed. Or do you want it to get taxed immediately, and then get invested knowing that it'll never get taxed again in the future?

As it's been a couple of years since we tackled pre-tax versus Roth on this show, that’s what we’re diving into in this episode. We'll help you figure out the answers to these questions, or at least help you to make a more informed decision.

The Diminishing Return of Working More

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (Jimmy Turner, MD and Lisha Taylor, MD) — Wed, 17 May 2023 05:00:00 +0000

It often pays to work smarter, not harder, yet many doctors put in more and more hours to make more money in medicine. But is working more always a good idea?

I think there are pros and cons to working more shifts in medicine. Personal finance is personal, and you have to assess whether you feel you’re being compensated fairly for the time and energy you put into your work.

If you’re not, you might be working for diminishing returns.

Yes, you have expenses to cover, but remember the importance of work life balance, especially as it pertains to physician burnout.

High-Interest Environment: Invest or Pay Off Debt?

thephysicianphilosopher@gmail.com (MD, Jimmy Turner, MD and Lisha Taylor) — Wed, 10 May 2023 05:00:00 +0000

With inflation and interest rates being what they are, one of the most common questions that we get nowadays is, “Should I invest or pay off debt? What should I be doing with my money?”

Everywhere in medicine, inflation has an impact. One of the common areas where this naturally happens a lot is in regards to reimbursement rates and income. Doctors realize, “Hey, I haven't gotten a substantial raise in five or ten years, maybe more. And yet, inflation in 2022 is 6-9%.”

So when we face these unprecedented rates of inflation, it makes sense to ask, “Should I invest or pay off debt?” Let’s dive in by covering specific financial tasks that doctors need to take into consideration.
