It is very rare to see a KZfaq channel about doctor who discuss about finance and the reality of life

I want this channel to last forever 😅😌 Please don't retire from here❤️

Oh Dr. Le my heart dropped when you had to bring your husband with you in order to feel safe going to grocery store :/. I am praying for better days. These days, I do all the errands for my parents to not only limit their exposure, but for safety as well. *Sigh* Thank you always for your transparency in all aspects of life. I always look forward to what you have to share with us. Take care

I 100% agree with working part time when your kids are young (depending on individual circumstances of course), made me sad to think you were uncomfortable going to the supermarket on your own, this isn't how life should be, hope you feel the support from your online community

Wow I can't believe you only get 300-500 a month on KZfaq!! Yet you still religiously upload and have a pretty huge following. Would expect more! Hopefully, you'll be able to be paid more in the future for this and thanks so much for sharing:)

Loved how honest this was...u deserve so many more subscribers...❤️❤️❤️

I just love how you are so genuine about your life on KZfaq..i truly appreciate that. I am always praying 4 u

you’re literally living my dream life 😩😩 you don’t even know how inspiring and motivating you are to my journey as a pre med ❤️❤️

Honesty is so great to see Janie really love your channel love to u all the way from australia

Thank you for making your videos and being genuine in each one! You are motivating!

Thanks for sharing this! ❤️ would love to see more of these kind of videos

Love the honesty jen, I'd love to see another version in a month or 6 months once you are comfortable. I suggest you check out budget with me videos, they have great ideas and you can just see where your money is going and do saving challenges and such if that's up your lane.

Hi Jenny, just discovered your channel and I absolutely love it. Thank you for your transparency! I can't wait to follow you on your journey ☺️

I love your transparency, great video!

Always look forward to your videos Dr. Le! Your voice is so soothing (for one) and I agree with much of your philosophy on life and health. So appreciative for these uploads, they definitely help me choose to make wiser decisions toward a better quality of life.

I love how transparent you are! Love your channel ❤️

thank you fir being so open and transparent. I love it!!

Thank you for posting honest and informative content!

Jenny you are a breath of fresh air. Thank you for keeping it real.

Thank you for sharing and yay for pay transparency! Also, I love how you are so down to earth! So many people would clean up their house before filming and always make sure they get the insta-worthy shot. I am also a mom of 2 and I appreciate you showing us what real life is supposed to look like. It's not messy... the house is just 'well-loved' :).

I appreciate your honesty so much, that’s hard to come by.. love your channel!

This is amazing insight! Thanks for sharing this!

Very much appreciate the realness! Not always easy to find on social media!

I’m glad to know the struggle is real no matter what the income is. Love ya Jenny. Love watching your videos. Been watching for years. 🤗💜🥰

Thank you for the transparency! I just matched into surgery and I’m a little worried about living in a high-cost city on a residents salary for 5 years! I’m grateful for your insight with these finance videos

Always respect and appreciate your transparency! 😍 we all need to figure out a way to get you more subscribers and views!

Love your honesty! I am an RN and I just switched my major to administration/education from NP. Freaking out a little because there is no guarantee my income will be what I thought it would be and I have loans to pay back 😬but the older I get the more I realize money isn’t everything! My home life is more important. Love your channel ❤️

love this video and your channel Dr. Le!!

Thank you for your transparency

Loved the video so calming haha! Just an FYI think London may have outgrown that car seat by quite a bit ! X

Love these videos about finances!! 🙏🏼💜

I appreciate the transparency here. So interesting to see what other people make and how they spend. Money is crazy. I am so...angry, sad, all the feels that you can't feel comfortable going to the store alone 😡😩 hopefully things will get better. Another super interesting great video. Thank you!

Travel work and pay has been soo good over the pandemic. Maybe in the future when the kids are older consider taking them and the husband on a travel assignment! It’s definitely a different type of experience. Great pay, not a long term commitment but could really help you get ahead. Loved your honesty with this video! This is what made me make the decision on not becoming a physician. I feel like i disappointed my parents but I am so much more happier. I haven’t started a family yet but I could never imagine working 60+ hr weeks with children! Good luck 💕

I know it seems stressful, but I think you are doing a great job. You are prioritizing your family and happiness. I’ve been back and forth. My husband has 2 more years of residency and now wants to do a critical care fellowship for 2 years. I still have some school loans, but we could do ok with me working part time. I have always been about the hustle but the older I get, the more I don’t want that life anymore..

Love your channel. Would love to see more finance videos. Especially when you decide to pay off your student loans. I hope you vlog the debt pay off journey.

Thank you for being honest. This helps me visualize what I can expect when I become a Physician. I'm currently finishing undergrad, married and have one child.

Hey Jenny, again a great and inspiring video. Could you do some videos about what you cook (I am always thinking of you when I‘m making broccoli in the oven 😆)-like a „what I eat in a day“. I would be especially interested in learning a bit about Vietnamese style cooking🙏🏻 Greetings from Switzerland 🙋🏻‍♀️🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭

Loved this video thank you for being upfront. :)

You can do it 💪🏼

Thank you for talking about aapi hate ❤️

Enjoy your videos 💕

I love your dedication to the channel! Also I'm seeing alot of comments about the car but I'm assuming since he is self employed he would use depreciation and car expense to his advantage come tax time to bring down taxable income so hopefully its paying for itself. But I love seeing your family in the vlogs! The boys are getting so big 😫

Great video Jenny! Love your honesty :) How often do you do grocery shopping?

Brutal honesty is rare these days. Cooking at home and taking your lunch to work cuts a significant amount of spending. Also much healthier!!! The good thing about your situation is that you can increase your hours should you need to. I totally get why you are working part time. There is no better reason to do so than to be with your lovely family. BTW, I'm jealous of Stan's golf net thingy! I'd probably accidentally let go of the club, though, and cause damage to the habitat. lol

You can always pick up a couple of night shifts a month. That pays reallywell (almost $2000 per night shift before taxes). BTW there's nothing wrong with using Wyatt's stuff for London. I do it all the time. I love it! My daughter loves taking over my son's stuff anyways 🙄

I will always admire people with this kind of transparency. And I'm sorry you feel so unsafe :( what has the world come to

Jenny, great video and I love the honesty. I think it was good. Except that car. Girl, give that car back to the dealer. The younger kid will be in private school soon. The price of that one car can get you two excellent cars/trucks/SUV or allow you to throw at least half onto that ridiculous loan. Honestly, I’d look at repaying that loan ASAP. Is there no plan you can apply for to pay that off quicker? Or if you are a doctor in that state for so long are there financial plans offered by the state to pay that off quicker? Realtors don’t make consistent income all the time. I guess that’s just me. Good video.

Thank you for the breakdown! Do you read/ listen anything medical related after completing residency? How to always stay on top of medical stuff?

Awwww your kids are so cute😊

The great thing about having my daughter later in life is many friends have kids and been kind to give us hand me downs.

I'm not sure how I came across your channel but I knew you looked familiar. I work at a close by urgent care as a nurse practitioner and see some of yours and colleagues' patients. Small world 😁.

loved this video. I definitely can relate. Im on my journey to repay my student loans ($220k) from pharmacy school. Every month, I take 50% of my income and put it towards my student loans 😵. Somedays, I wonder if I really need to be putting so much towards my loans, but then I keep telling myself, i can be done in 3 years! But, i appreciate your perspective. My hubby has his own student loans from med school as well and he is more like you when it comes to repaying 😊

Thanks for sharing your Financial journey!!! Makes me want to track my expenses too. 💰 Do you use apps for tracking your expenses?

Love the doormat!!!

So how does beginning to make student loan payments fit into this budget...it seems like your fixed expenses are nearly as much as your take home pay?

❤️

I love how you eat your salad with chopsticks!! hahah

...another video idea: how you care for your beautiful hair 🇨🇭😍🇨🇭

Engaging!

Sorry if this was already covered somewhere but I missed it! How many hours/week is part time for you for the salary you get? Great vid!!

😍😍😍

Do you mind sharing the walking pad you were using ? If you still remember 😅 I know this video is from a while back !

I really like Jordan pages (YT) method (simpler) and have followed bits of Dave Ramsey (read the book) and the budget mom (YT). Your mortgage and car payment scares me 😳 lol but that’s just me.

How much does Stan typically bring in per month, if you don't mind sharing? Also do you make more money for the procedures you perform?

commenting because you deserve a million dollars from youtube!! ^_^

You should check out the Wealthy Barber! I feel like you would enjoy it a little more than Dave Ramsey and it's always good to get a different perspective. Love your content!

Hey, I am curious to know how you’re using investments to pay off a lump sum on your student loans in September. I have been working a lot of extra hours and placing my money into a high yields savings account with the goal of getting some interest and then paying a lump sum. I’m too chicken to go the investment route because I don’t want to lose money. But if I could capitalize on extra money for a big return I would do it

Are you saving anything for retirement? 1100 private schools? 910 Tesla loan and car insurance? Do you budget?

imma turn off my adblocker for you then!!!!! LOL and click on the ads.

How do your loans not have an interest rate? My gov loans for Grad would accrue 4.3 and 5.something respectively even when in med school?

Your husband also works though, correct?

That car payment 😟

Ayyyy that Montessori school is expensive, are you in an area that doesn’t have good public schools? Just curious how you are justifying that 11000 a year, and why you chose that instead of your retirement or the kids college fund? Tough decisions I’m sure. But I commend you for all that interactive hands on learning at home with the garden, reading to them, playing, etc which is the most important thing! If you need more ideas to keep them entertained, there’s hands on science mini experiments with at home supplies on Spangler Science or the Exploratorium snacks website. When they get a little older you can even let them choose an Exploratorium “snack” to recreate at home and have them find the supplies in the house on their own. I’m a middle/high science teacher who has an itch to go back for med school but I’m 38 and also feel like there are other joys and goals in life it would take away from for too many years. So for now, I can at least watch you and cheer you on!! Keep up the great work!

I’ll comment on every video now if you helps you make more money!!💛

Nobody: London: CHEESE😡🥺

I am sure this video doesnt show your day to day life but I just saw an amazing woman trying to save as much as possible, taking care of the kids, working, packing lunches and taking care of their house while the husband buys stuff and goes golfing bc he is tired 😂

$6,000....Ouch. $900 a month for a car... super ouch....

Hi dr Lee. I want your email please so I can contact you 🙏

Wow totally living like wealthy people when there’s serious debt. Find it interesting

Your husband needs to learn how to save money and not make you do all the leg work.
