Encore! Encore!!
While there were many excellent posts in the recents weeks, there were a few that definitely nailed it and deserve a standing ovation. Â So I’d like to recognize a few that particularly stood out to me and bring them out for a curtain call:
-Time is more precious than money. Â Hopefully if you’re reading personal finance articles, you’ve figured out how to budget your money…but are you budgeting your time as well?? Â My Curiosity Lab tells us about The Joy of Opting Out; feeling okay about declining an invitation, turning your phone off and enjoying some much deserved free time!
-I’ll admit I missed this guest post on Miss Bonnie MD when it was first published, but I recently stumbled across as I was cruising around various sites. Â If You Don’t Ask discusses an important topic that was never taught to me in residency: what to do with that new employment contract? Â Should you just sign since obviously everyone else in the group did? Â Is there room to negotiate? Â Should you have someone with more experience review it? Â If you’re a resident or currently job seeking, I’d encourage you to take a look.
-Residency is not a time to be worrying about saving and investing, right? Â Wrong says Future Proof MD, who gave us How Much Can a Resident Save? 6 Steps to $80,900. Â In it he outlines six basic steps to maximize retirement savings, the sooner you start saving, the more time you have to let compound interest work it’s magic!
-I’m not sure the etiquette of giving my own post a “Curtain Call,” but because it was a guest post on Physician on FIRE, I’m just going to sneak it in here. Â I discuss my favorite topic; breakfast burritos. Â There is also a little bit about making some side money by taking medical surveys, but it’s really about burritos. Enjoy!
