Hey everyone, it’s Finance Fridays again. Today is just kind of another reflection type of post… we’re going to ponder “Live for Today, Save for the Future“. Live for Today, Save for the Future? Yea.

At first glance, they may seem like they are completely at odds with each other, but I’m here to tell you that […]

Hey everyone, it’s Finance Fridays again. Today is kind of a short post which is more about the “feelings” of Finances rather than dollar signs, saving, and expenses.

Hey everyone, it’s Finance Fridays again. Today will be a short post about “Revisiting the Roth 401k”. Revisiting the Roth 401k? Yea. I’ve talked about it before multiple times, but in general, there aren’t that many instances (for doctors) that using a Roth 401k makes sense. One of the times that it makes a lot of sense is when you’re a resident. However, I’ve discussed some other times when you can consider utilizing a Roth […]
