    Using credit card points to fly first-class for free

    Using credit card points to fly first-class for free

    If you’ve ever wanted to fly first class but thought it was too expensive, this interview is for you.

    Devon Gimbel, MD is known for helping physicians maximize rewards from credit card points so they can travel more, travel better, and travel often. 

    This feels like an especially relevant and timely conversation – especially since the data shows that about 38% of doctors have 3-4 different credit cards.

    We have to wonder: should all doctors be using credit cards to optimize points and perks?

    I got to sit down with Devon to talk about exactly this.

    Six-figure Student Loan Mistakes

    Six-figure Student Loan Mistakes

    Let’s just be real: student loan guidelines are confusing and they’re constantly changing.

    But if you’re like many physicians who have student loans, you’re well aware that if your payments haven’t resumed yet, they’re about to.

    You want to make sure you’re on track and have a plan for repayment, so you can move confidently forward with your personal finance goals.

    Student loan advice is also one of the things we love helping people with at Attend.

    If you want a student loan expert to help you figure out the best course of action with your loans – including which plan to be in, whether you should consolidate, whether you should file your taxes jointly or separately if you’re married, or what to do when you finish training…

    You can schedule a consultation right now at helloattend.com.

    For those concerned about cost, we have a unique pricing structure at Attend where you can buy now, pay later through four monthly payments all at 0% interest.  

    Let’s dive into the 6 most common student loan mistakes to avoid for your best financial outlook.

    Following the Financial Crowd

    Following the Financial Crowd

    Have you ever left a sporting event, following the crowd, and suddenly realized you were walking the wrong way? What if I told you this phenomenon has a name, and it impacts your money, too?

    Understanding our own behavior when it comes to finance is essential because it helps us mitigate wrong-for-us decision making around money. Unless you know these roadblocks exist, you can’t do much to stop them from derailing your financial goals. 

    Last week, we shared why human behavior matters for our financial lives by taking a look at the first 5 out of 10 psychological phenomena that can (and do) affect your personal finance goals: greed, fear, ego/overconfidence, loss aversion, and analysis paralysis

    This week, we’re diving back into behavioral finance (one of our favorite topics) to share five more types of unchecked human behavior that can sabotage your journey to building the wealth you want.

    Greed, FOMO, and Bad Investments

    Greed, FOMO, and Bad Investments

    Despite our best intentions, certain emotions can keep us from building wealth. After many years arming physicians with the information they need to achieve financial wellness, I had a significant realization. 

    Information is one thing – behavior is another.

    As the saying goes, money is 80% behavior and only 20% math.

    Not only do I want to share important information about personal finance, I also want to help you recognize how certain behaviors can (and do) affect your finances. 

    Drawing from one of the classic books about investing, let’s go over five common behaviors that could be keeping you from achieving your financial goals.
