#186 Do Kids Actually Soak Up Financial Advice? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Nobody trains a sponge. You leave it in the sink, and it takes on whatever is in there: the dishwater, the coffee grounds, the cereal milk somebody poured out at breakfast. Kids work about the same way. The sit-down conversation about investing and saving goes nowhere. What lands is the endless Amazon boxes on the porch, the credit card handed over without a care in the world, and the "sure, go ahead" that arrives before the money question is finished. In a house like yours, the thing they are s
#185 Physicians Don’t Need to Move the Financial Goalposts to Win (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dessert comes after the vegetables. A seven year old goes along with this because at seven the broccoli takes four minutes and the ice cream shows up in the same hour. You have been eating vegetables since you were twenty-two. The lake house for three weeks with your brother's family, all four grandparents in one place while they can still get on a plane, the summer where nobody is covering anybody's shift.

#183 Docs Don’t Need to Shipwreck Their Plan to Keep Family Afloat (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every lifeguard learns the same thing before they are allowed near the water. You do not swim into someone's arms. A panicking person will climb you, and then there are two people in trouble instead of one, so you bring something that floats and you keep it between you. Nobody watching from the sand thinks the lifeguard is being stingy about it. This week we talk about aging parents who are running out of money, and what a physician's household has to keep standing while it helps. We also answer
#182 Are Annuities Really a Bad Deal for Physicians? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Nobody books the all-inclusive because the food is better. They book it because it takes the risk out of the trip. No bad rental in the wrong part of town and no hour-long drive to anything worth eating. An annuity is the all-inclusive resort of retirement. The right side of the menu is blank, but it’s “would you like fish or chicken” for seven days, and the pre-packaged excursions are the closest thing to spontaneity you will get all week (ask me about the fish bowl my son and I “snorkeled” in
