Managing your 💰 as a resident doctor

As resident doctors we are RARELY taught on how to manage our finances and it's truly SUCH an important part of residency and even after- especially since most of us rely no student loans to get to this point.

I highly recommend having a meeting with your loan agency to assess the best repayment plan- lately they've had the SAVE plan which allows you to pay your loan back based off of your income.

Another important skill is learning how to budget what you make- many of us have been in school for 10+ years, so building this skill ( using an app for example) can really help set you up for success.
