2501: The Backup Plan Every Dentist Should Think About

from The Dentalpreneur Podcast w/ Dr. Mark Costes

On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes sits down with Dr. Wayde Elliott, a former dentist whose clinical career ended suddenly after a neck injury during a crown prep forced him out of practice. Wayde shares his journey from barely making it into dental school to owning a successful practice for 20 years, and how a patient planted the seed that eventually led him into self-storage development.  He and Mark discuss the golden handcuffs of dentistry, the importance of disability insurance, and why dentists need to think beyond income generated solely by their own two hands. Wayde also breaks down why self-storage can be a compelling real estate asset class, including its recession resistance, low labor demands, tax advantages through cost segregation, and potential for strong investor returns.
