Practice Academy Summer 2023: Taking Control of Your Financial Future: A Physician’s Playbook for Financial Wellness
INTRODUCTION
Physicians often underperform their financial potential, facing numerous challenges in optimizing their investment returns. Busy schedules, lack of training in finance and the ever-changing health care landscape make it difficult for them to navigate complex financial decisions. Moreover, the financial services industry fails physicians in several ways. It often provides disconnected solutions that neglect the integration of tax, investing and insurance optimization, resulting in missed opportunities and unnecessary tax burdens.
This underperformance is alarming, with 1 in 4 physicians retiring or reaching age 65 with a net worth of $1 million or less, and the average physician’s retirement net worth of $3.4 million falls short of what could be achieved. Financial stress ranks as the second highest cause of stress among physicians, contributing to burnout levels. By using the right financial strategies, physicians can maximize their investment returns and enjoy a financially secure retirement.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Learn about the importance of financial concepts that often are neglected yet have a large impact on achieving current and future goals.
- Review case studies that are essential for financial wellness at any stage of a physician’s career.
