About this listen

 In this show, I discuss the concept of "good problems to have" as a physician (like having a significant surplus in your checking account) and the importance of addressing these situations thoughtfully. My goal is to make financial planning concise, useful, and relevant to your unique life.Tyler Olson

    Most new doctors don’t have a money problem. They have a visibility problem.

    If you don’t know what’s coming in, and you don’t know where it’s going, it’s really easy to end up saving nothing… or worse, building debt without realizing it.

    This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being aware.

    Because the habits you build now are the ones that scale when your income does.
