Hey everyone, it’s Finance Fridays again. Today is just a short post to plant a flag in the ground and say “It Begins”. It Begins – My Attack on Student Loans Yea. My wife and I have been paying our loans on the normal repayment plan since we finished fellowships in 2013. Somehow it’s already been 6 years. My original plan was to pay off our loans within 5 years of coming out of residency. […]

It Begins – My Attack on Student Loans #illumedati #medtwitter


Hey everyone, it’s Whatever Wednesdays again and today is just going to be a short post about my experience with “Disney Plus“. Disney Plus? Yea. Most likely you’ve heard of Disney’s new streaming platform which is supposed to go head-to-head with Netflix. You didn’t think it was pulling all of its content from Netflix back in 2017 for no reason right? In the age of everyone trying to “cut the cord” of cable and get […]

I should be able to import the addresses from the old provider to the new one. However, if for some reason you stop getting the emails, just go ahead and resubscribe. I am hopeful that the new email system will work […]

Concrete examples of this would be things like mortgage payments and student loan repayments. Also in this […]

Hey everyone, it’s Whatever Wednesdays again. I wanted to write a real post today, but unfortunately I’m feeling a little under the weather. I’ve been coughing and my nose has been stuffed. This made it difficult for me to use my APAP machine last night too. Don’t worry, I don’t think I’m “sick”, perhaps it’s just a combination of feeling tired and some allergies. I won’t be missing work or anything either. That said, I […]

Hey everyone, it’s Veteran’s Day. Today, we honor our military veterans. I was always taught to use the phrase “Thank you for your service.” I thought that was the best way to thank a veteran. However, recent research has demonstrated that as many as half of veterans feel uncomfortable when told that. Others feel this phrase is so overused that is almost an “empty platitude”. The poll found that instead of saying the simple thank […]
