Here's Journal Club 4-22-22! Every week, I hold a JOURNAL CLUB. After filtering through the articles on the web, I present a few that impacted my life this week. Be safe and stay well!
- For many of us, realizing our dream of becoming a doctor comes by taking out enormous debt, and needless to say, we prefer to knock off all that debt as soon as we can. However, as a resident, how can one pay off such massive amounts to get their finances on track? The White Coat Investor has a detailed resource to help you get started – Refinancing Medical Student Loans in Residency – A Step-By-Step Guide.
- Have you heard the phrase “compounding interest is the eighth wonder of the world?” Well, the saying is true for a host of reasons, and if you're relatively new to investing, then compounding interest can be your best friend. Interested to learn how compounding actually works? The Female Money Doctor talks more about it in – What Does Compounding Mean When We Talk About Money?
- Do you feel fairly compensated for your work, experience, and expertise? If yes, that's wonderful. If not, why do you think that's the case, and is there a way to turn things around? The Loonie Doctor has a mission to help fellow physicians thrive and shares actionable tips to find success, balance, and satisfaction in what you do in the article – Do You Earn What You Are Worth?
- Juggling the responsibilities that come with being a mother and a physician is anything but easy. Top it up with societal pressure and mom guilt, and what you have there is a “recipe for burnout.” Fortunately, the Tired SuperHeroine has learned to drown out what doesn't work for her. Instead, she focuses on creating a rewarding life for herself and her family as a doctor-mom and shares more about it in – How my being a doctor really affects my kid.
That's all for this week! I hope this week's journal club was helpful.
