Doctors spend over a decade learning medicine, but almost no time learning money. As a result, many physicians make costly financial mistakes that set them back years.

In this comprehensive guide, I cover the personal finance fundamentals every doctor needs to know: budgeting on a resident salary, managing student loans strategically, choosing the right insurance, building an investment portfolio, and planning for retirement. This is the financial education that should be part of every medical school curriculum but isn't.

Financial Literacy Links:
1. Robinhood Referral (to sign up for a brokerage account): https://join.robinhood.com/prerakj-ab... (if you sign up with this link, you get a free stock!)
2. Chase Saphire Card Referral (3% cash back on dining) https://www.referyourchasecard.com/19...
2. Paypal Referral: https://py.pl/YUNU8 (you get 5% cash back on a category every month and I use this to pay for groceries as Costco also counts!)
If you sign up and link your account and spend $5 - you get $10 cash back!
3. Zogo (this is a place where I get a lot of my financial literacy and it is foundational to learning); the other good part is that you get coins when you do modules, and those can be redeemed for gift cards!
