In today's podcast, you'll hear from physician entrepreneurs who created a business to help other doctors out. Our guests are Dr. Zwade Marshall and Dr. Kenton Allen, the cofounders of Doc2Doc Lending, a novel lending platform created for doctors, by doctors, with the aim of facilitating fast access to personal loans at rates that make sense. It was founded on the belief that doctors are a unique group that are more responsible in repaying debt obligations than the general population. https://passiveincomemd.com/podcast38/

In this podcast, we'll talk to Kenji Asakura and Letizia Alto, the dual physician couple behind Semi-Retired MD. Several years ago, they were working as full-time hospitalists. Despite having worked for several years and high income, they had very little freedom in terms of time or money. So they looked into other tried-and-true financial strategies. They're also the creators of the amazing course, Zero to Freedom. It's a hands-on, 8-week course that guides you through the entire process for successfully selecting and purchasing your first rental property so you can create more monthly income (and protect it from taxes) right away. Their course Zero to Freedom Through Cash Flowing Rentals is accepting waitlist members to get the course at a discount. You can join HERE.

In this podcast, I'll share the ten things that you need to understand before investing in a passive real estate deal. https://passiveincomemd.com/podcast36/

Dr. Jimmy Turner is a practicing anesthesiologist and also a personal finance blogger, podcaster, and author of The Physician Philosopher's Guide to Personal Finance. He also happens to be a physician practicing academic anesthesiology who paid off $200,000 of student loan debt in 19 months and increased his net worth by $250,000 in just 12 months out of training. While in training, a few books and a couple of conversations opened his eyes to the fact that he accrued way more debt than he should have in training, but (despite that) he could still be financially independent in his early 40's. Given the burnout epidemic that exists in medicine, he felt that the message of financial independence was both timely and important. And despite all of the awesome work that was being done by other physician finance websites, there was still a huge need. https://passiveincomemd.com/podcast32
