E193 - Money, Medicine, and Designing a “Good Life” Mark Soth on Achieving Physician Financial Independence

I have a confession to make. I kind of felt that to talk about money or to be really into financial planning was akin to being the Wolf of Wall Street, where the only real principle was how much money I could make. After this week’s conversation with Dr. Mark Soth, I think of financial planning in a completely different way. In fact, I would argue that Dr. Soth provided on this episode some of the best advice on how to live in a truly fulfilling way.Dr. Soth is an intensivist at McMaster University. He has done significant work in the space of physician financial independence. He has a website called The Loonie Doctor as well as a limited run podcast called The Money Scope podcast. In this episode I basically ask Mark all the finance related questions I could think of, ranging from the utility of professional corporations in 2026 to tools for financial tracking. Most importantly, Mark explores how financial planning can help us all to life “the good life”. Check out all the resources and links from Mark in the show notes. Links:The Wealthy BarberThe Money Scope Podcast The Loonie Doctor's Bookshelf : Mark’s favorite finance booksbeyond MD podcast with Dr. Yatin ChadhaBreaking Bad Debt - Dr. Steph - YouTubeReboot Your Portfolio by Dan Bortolotti
