A great article except for the concept to “not live like a resident”. The author says “while this conservative approach may work for some, there is a consequence to further delaying all financial gratification”. But the article never says what the consequence is? I disagree. Many residents I’ve worked with are $300,000+ in debt. Unless they are doing a student loan forgiveness program… physicians are better off paying those student loans asap. My husband and I- both DOs paid off 2 sets of loans in 4 years after training. Best decision ever!!!! Apr. 14, 2022, at 5:36 pm Reply
