361: Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth and Living Regret-Free from Hospice Doctor, Jordan Grumet, MD
Today, I’m talking to Dr. Jordan Grumet. Jordan is an associate medical director at JourneyCare Hospice, a financial blogger turned host of the award-winning Earn & Invest Podcast, and the author of Taking Stock: A Hospice Doctor’s Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Life. In his book, he shares what the end of life can teach us about the secret to financial independence and how to make every moment count. People have so many questions about money, whether it’s better to save for the future or enjoy what we have earned today, and we’ll discuss some of those age-old questions on today’s podcast. In our conversation, we dig into how death has informed his unique perspective in finance, why the questions so many people ask at the end of their lives are the ones you should be asking right now, and the tactics and strategies you can use to be more intentional about both your money and your time.

In this podcast interview, you’ll learn: How losing his father at the age of seven informed Jordan’s perspective on finance. What Jordan learned from talking to hospice patients about their successes, failures, and what they still aimed to accomplish with the life they had left. Why Jordan doesn’t believe in the YOLO mindset–but has become a lot less anti-YOLO through his work. Why net worth almost never comes up when talking to people who have a limited amount time left–and how this shows us what really matters. How to create a fixed-time schedule that frees you up to focus more on what matters most to you. Why Jordan thinks people who embrace the FIRE movement have the same problems as those who save for 30 years, then can’t spend. Who to talk to when you need to make end-of-life choices.
