Watching this after I finished filling out my MPN and Entrance Counseling to start Medical school this year. Amazing discipline, focus and determination. Great tips and an awesome way to take advantage of 0% CC. Thank you so much for sharing.

You just inspired me. Good to see that this albatross I have hanging over my neck isn't insurmountable.

thank you so much for this video! i’m entering my first year of medical school this year

You are a wise owl 🦉. I get annoyed when people called me stingy as I am a really generous person 😇

Awesome video. Thank you for the advice. They really should teach financial literacy in med school

Such an inspirational, thorough video! Thanks so much for sharing. This was a really wise way to go lol

Thank you a ton for the video! After receiving my acceptance letter, I was stressing out so much about finances and couldn't let myself be completely happy because I was so worried about accumulating debt during medical education. Growing up in a poor household has made me develop a crippling fear of debt, so it's good to know of a doc with a similar background affirming me that it's possible to pay off your med school debt in a short time with prudent spending and aggressive repayment. i know a lot of ppl can be chill with living with debt above their heads and instead choose to use the money they earned during residency/attending for investment (in either real estate/stocks etc) to accumulate more money, instead of focusing to pay off their debt immediately. But that just aint me. IMO one advantage I have is that I'm still fairly young and I still have a fair bit of time left in life to spend more $$ in long-term investment without too much loss AFTER I'm debt-free.

You have really inspired me honestly like a lot. Being in a family that not middle class and have absolutely no doctors , who i can ask for advice is stressful. And i want to become a pediatrician, and hearing about loans stress me out because i saw my dad fighting about loans once all though he done paying it now but it was bad experience for him . Because I have one parent with me and another one in another country that i would like to help enter the U.S one day but when I think about it all it cause me stressed because it all seems impossible. Senior in high school by the way, but after watching your video, it gives me a little hope of maybe i can actually become what I want to be. And thank you for that.

You only need life insurance if other people depend on your income and they would be in bad straits if you died and they didn't have that income.

200k is a sweet deal. dental school today is nearly 3x that number!

Love the video, it was really insightful! Can you touch on the types of jobs you were doing during this time period that you were paying off your loans? What areas of Family Medicine paid relatively more (ex: Hospitalist vs Emergency vs Rural vs Urgent Care vs Outpatient FM clinic)? If you tailored your time more towards the higher paying aspects of FM scope of practice, would you have been able to pay it down even faster?

Congrats! my son starts Med schoool this July...good stuff to pass on to him!

Thank you for the video! So with regards to income based repayment options such as IBR or REPAYE, is there a penalty on making early payments as you did?

Awesome video. Just matched into IM residency. Very helpful tips. Thank u.

Out of all the videos I’ve watched WOW- finally found someone with a good and unique secret!! Haha nice!

Thank you so much, very informative video. 👍 God bless you!

Thank you Dr. Lindsay Marie, will share with my daughter who is in 3rd year BS/MD

Good for you! This is awesome!! Thanks so much for sharing and God bless!!!

Excuse me doctor could you tell me if the money that you make per month (9000-12000) is after taxes or before? and is a part time or full time... thank you so much by answering I would want to be a family medicine doctor

That's Awesome. Congratulations on all that you have achieved until now and thank you for your piece of advice.

Did your medical school and under grad debt show up on your credit report ?

You make me know it’s possible to payoff 6 figure student loan debt

Did you go to community college for the first two years and then apply for all scholarships. Also If oyu were close to being poor, didn't you qualify or any grants?

Can you give us any more information about which cards you used? And how much you pulled during what time frame of having to pay back? I'm an rph and definitely can use some tips to accelerate things, thanks!

So i need to make more per month as a pharmacist. We need higher pay

You let me know two years ago about student loans. You said I can borrow only up to the cost of attendance. (Tuition and living expenses). Are you taking out the COA amount? Isn’t that like making bank there? Will Biden write it all off in a year or more? So I’d like to borrow the maximum and as soon as possible.

love the credit card hack!

Great dedication! Wouldn’t it be more profitable if you invest your money on house or stock market and pay your debt in 20/30 years?

Straight facts.

So did you just stay on IDR after graduating residency and on top of making the required monthly payment you just put all extra you could towards the Loan in the form of an extra payment???

Wait so use a credit card to pay off the debt every month then pay off the credit card by the due date every month?

Hi, so during residency, you were paying around $100 and after you completed residency, then you were paying around $7,000 because of your pay increase? Approximately how much do you make per month during residency?

what about PSLF in all this how does that work into this

Can any1 tell me how much money needed in today's medicine pvt coll a nd govt college in average...in USA

Nice 👍👍

So are u a consultant?

Would these circumstances have changed if you had a longer residency ?

You should have invested some of that 💰. That way you have more 💰 to pay off your loans 🤷

Best way to get financial freedom with High quality education # attend medical school outside America in European countries with free tution scheme # write usmle then come back to USA 😁

Jokes apart great vedio ma'am 🙄

Will you marry me? I’m 39, Taiwan
