Just as an annual physical catches "silent killers" like hypertension, a financial deep clean identifies "Efficiency Leaks" before they cost you hundreds of thousands in lost growth. This episode provides a 5-point audit to ensure your money and mindset are perfectly aligned while you focus on your practice.

The 5-Point Financial Audit:

• 1. Financial Goals Review: Move beyond vague ideas. Are your goals SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound)? Don’t forget to celebrate your wins—it builds the momentum needed to keep going.
• 2. Lifestyle Creep Calibration: Calculate your Burn Rate. Physicians are prone to "Incremental Creep" where raises disappear into convenience spending. Ensure your outflows reflect your actual values.
• 3. The "Defense" Review: 
  • Umbrella Policy: Aim for coverage equal to your net worth (up to $5M).
  • Disability Buy-Up: Check your "increase riders" to protect your growing income.
  • Estate Assets: Ensure new properties are inside your trust and beneficiaries are updated.
• 4. The Subscription Purge: Audit your recurring "SaaS" charges. Call your providers and ask, "Is this the best rate you can offer?" A five-minute call can save $500 a year.
• 5. Portfolio Rebalancing: Don't let a bull market skew your risk profile. Use new cash to buy underweighted assets or rebalance within tax-advantaged accounts (401k/IRA) to "sell high" and stay disciplined.

The 72-Hour Challenge

Don’t try to do all five at once. Pick the easiest task and complete it within the next 3 days.
