I think it’s finally time we move on from California licensure information and move back into some financial discussions. So let’s get started. I can’t speak for everyone, but I know that for myself I am constantly throwing around the ideas of retiring early, working part time, or pursuing other side hustles or passions outside of the current work I do in healthcare. You may not be throwing around these ideas yourselves but maybe you are thinking about taking on a house flip, taking a sabbatical from work to travel, or buying a new, expensive piece of technology to potentially advance your career or business. All of these decisions can…

2020 Financial Summary
Alright, it’s finally that time of year again in which I get to write my favorite post. It’s the post I most look forward to each year because it shows me if all the work I have been doing throughout the year has paid off. It tells me what I did well for the year financially and what I could improve on. This is year 3 of this post and I finally feel like I have enough data to begin to see some trends in my finances. I still can’t get over the spending data I have for the last 3 years. For someone who doesn’t budget at all, the…

2021 Goals
With 2021 finally here it’s time that we set our goals for the new year.

If you want to read about my goals from last year or my review of those goals follow the respective…

2020 Goals Review
Alright, it’s finally that time of the year to see how we did at fulfilling our January 1st goals. As many of you know, goals can be an amazing way to mark progress, create motivation, and help with self reflection. However, goals are fluid, what mattered January 1st, 2020 might not matter as much on December 31st, 2020 and that’s just fine. Whether you accomplish your goals or not, the important part is the reflection it takes to write and review them. As well as the personal growth you experienced that year as a person. I challenge everyone to try setting some goals this year for 2021 regardless of how…

2020 Recap
Well… We Made it. 2020 has come and finally went. It was a year unlike any other I have ever experienced. It came with many big adjustments for me to my career, my finances, and my mental well being as I am sure others can also relate to. I never thought that I would miss things like going out to eat, or to the bar for a drink, or even the awkward small talk at a party. But I missed it all. 2020 was a gentle reminder for all of us to never take anything for granted and I plan to carry that with me going forward. I started writing…
