2578: Grow for What

On today's episode, Dr. Bill Keith speaks during the Dental Success Summit 2026 about understanding your freedom number and building a practice with a clear destination in mind. Drawing from his background in finance, practice ownership, real estate, and DSO leadership, Dr. Keith explains the difference between retirement and true financial freedom, emphasizing that passive income, not active income, is what creates real optionality.  He walks through how dentists can calculate the lifestyle they want, gross it up for taxes, apply a safe withdrawal rate, and evaluate how their practice value, real estate, investments, and business cash flow contribute to that number. Dr. Keith also shares his own journey from buying his father's practice and scaling it, to joining Dental Success Institute, building Dental Success Partners, and choosing a path that gave him more freedom to do the work he loves.
