Summary
Today we are talking with an academic plastic surgeon who is celebrating getting both PSLF and becoming a millionaire. He is just starting his 5th year of practice. He and his wife are both committed to financial literacy. They have a 30% savings rate and have no consumer debt. This doc shared that he didn't have great examples growing up of how to be wise with your money and said he had to unlearn some bad habits in addition to learning how to invest and grow wealth. After the interview we are talking about PSLF for Finance 101.
