Are y'all even watching the video? He went to med school and is going to make 300k with two entities paying his debt for him. Sounds like medical school was a great investment.
I know right. A lot of people is jealous I guess. Totally worth it.
@@siic I completely agree.
As much as I like Dave Ramsey, his mule headed refusal to recognize such things as good debt, was not only a childish muh feelings when called out by a debt collector personally, but the fact that his audience is the type of people who can’t and or won’t live within their means no matter what.
Regardless of that info, does that changes Dave's logic of not going into debt?
@@LTJuni0r going into debt is bad. That being said, how does a financially average person become a doctor without taking student loan?
The amount of student debt we go into in this country is outstanding. And, the fact that it's normalized makes it even worse.
No big deal if you pay it off quickly.
And so? I know tons of doctors who make over 500k a year. The debt is huge but the income potential is even bigger
Capitalism..got to spend money to make money. Investing in yourself as a business and you only fail when your not motivated.
And it's worth it.
@@markspan2674 There is wise investment and foolish investment. Education costs often transition from the former to the latter when the person doesn't need to lay out any costs up front and it's all make pretend money. Couple that with people taking 6-figure loans to pay for silly educations like philosophy or something equally useless because they felt entitled to go to a private college, etc. Go to community college and then commute to a state school and get the same education for a lot cheaper. Of course there are exceptions like having the opportunity to study engineering at MIT or law at Harvard.
Atleast it wasn't a Tuba degree.
Right 🤣🤣🤣

As another resident physician, the amount of loans we have to take out to pursue our career is ridiculous
Aannd, you make ridiculous money too
Akosuagh1 Do you know how much residents make? It’s less than minimum wage if you draw it out hourly
@@jacobpereramd8094 I think he was referring to the money you make when you finish your training. Nobody forced you into medicine so quit whining - there are literally millions of people who would swap places with you in a heartbeat.
@@JohnSmith-gy8rc In the Bay Area, tech managers make way more than the majority of physicians. A top trauma surgeon at a major local hospital works only half time and the rest as a real estate agent. Real estate brings 75% of their income for a fraction of the time... Physicians are very much middle class and their wages keep going down every year. Yes people would switch ina heart beat, because it can be a wonderful and noble line of work. Financially speaking, I don't think that's the best proposition out there, by far. If you work smartly 120 hours a week at ANYTHING like the top surgeons do for 30 years, you will be well off. Why? because you will become the best at what you do. If you do accounting for 120 hours a week, you will become an expert at some specific issues, you might become a forensic accountant, and get paid top $$. If you work 120 hours a week in sales, you will become GREAT at sales, and start bringing the commissions. If you work 120 hours a week as a recruiter you will build a network and become a successful head hunter. If you work 120 hours a week as a plumber, you will become the best plumber out there and can charge whatever you want. You get my point.
@@comment_account2343 Hi there Jacob, @jacob Perera MD maybe make it less obvious that this is a spare account for "commenting" lol Also I call complete B.S that surgeons work 120 hours a week for 30 years. You know why because thats over 17 hours a day. I could believe 80 hours a week, or even 90 or 100 hours a week. BUT lets no exaggerate here eh. And if they did i would not want them working on me if they were working 120 hours a week.
In four years, when the loans are paid off (fingers crossed), use that $100K as a down payment on a nice house.
I wish you the best 👍
hows life man?
If you can make 300k a year 415k of debt is easily doable .. just live like you make 100k till the debt is gone
Keep in mind the take home will be 60% of that
Would love Dave's perspective on how he expects students to become Doctors, Dentists, Lawyers WITHOUT debt. At this point, the American education system is making this unattainable for smart and broke young people.
Thank you! I wish he would speak on this.
I don't know why they bother to call. I often wonder if they are actually med students. On the internet, you can say you are anything. Ask any practicing doctor over 40. They aren't eating beans and rice, and they aren't poor with massive debt. Once you start earning 200-500K per year, you'd have to be an idiot not to be able to pay off 400K and begin to become wealthy. And if you can pass organic chemistry, you should be able to figure it out.
Just hopping in to say that law school isn’t worth it for the majority of schools out there. Only the top law schools have job opportunities that pay more than the debt that students take on

@@coreywilliams1454 Corey, explain what you just said. Some of us do not know that code.
As a veteran myself, I am telling this caller and ALL VETERANS to verify all verbiage on "student loan repayment" documents. Don't be surprised if your loan(s) don't qualify and the DOD failed to mention that...
I’m a veteran. My tuition was covered. Gi bill was more than enough to cover rent and books. I basically got paid to go to school.
@@joyaustin6581 GI Bill is different from loan repayment program...
GI Bill paid for most of my Masters.
@@joyaustin6581 doesn’t mean it will be covered in HIS case
Should be able to manage school costs using the G.I. Bill. If you need other income, work part-time and cash-flow the rest. This is how I did it. Finished four years with zero debt.
@@johnc2438 Again, GI Bill is NOT the same as the repayment program...
There is something wrong with our county when education costs go up double from inflation. It is so wrong in so many ways.
It would be fine if it would only be double...
Also something wrong when people sign up for these things without use of brain.

He needs to consider the interest building up on the student loans. At 415K it would be around 30k per year with the average US fedloan interest rate being 6-7%.
That is a good point. Seems like he could use all six years factoring in the interest
he could save up 100k and pay off the interest while his employers helps him pay them off.
At least he's not a chiropractor.
I dunno, my chiropratcter charges £33 for 10 minutes and she is popping in and out of rooms all day..... She is making bank
I prefer a physical therapist over chiropractor.
I want prevention not after the damage is done.
A chiropractor broke the neck of a coworker I worked with years ago.
@@elizabethparsons1071 But an actual physician charges $200 for 10 minutes and is in and out of rooms all day. So there's that, lol!!!
@@1967davethewave You just made that up.
@@harlenkelly7331 OK, the doctors I know charge that kind of money. Since I am in a family of medical professionals I'm just going off what I'm told but a physician makes way more than an chiropractor and that's a fact.

Same to you!
Wow... I don't have any debt.. but still struggle to pay eveyday bills.. can't imagine having this kind of debt...😆
He makes so much money, so the debt is paid off soon
@@walshsun3289 you'd be surprised
Few physicians “struggle to pay bills” on hundreds of thousands dollars/year.
Yea usually people who make a lot of money spend a lot of money and just feel like entitled to spend it because they make a lot. Their mentality is, well I have a prestigious degree so I’m justified and I know I can just pay it off anyways. Let’s just ball out.
Medical school debt is the best student debt you can have. No other degree has the average salary expectancy and security as a medical degree. I’ve yet to meet a poor doctor. Once you’re done with fellowship you can pay that debt off quickly which can’t be said for 95% of other student debt.
You’ve yet to meet a poor doctor? They are everywhere.
@@k_kelsey We don't have any poor private practice docs in NY unless they are rural. Poor docs in public service facilities and clinics? Sure. Bad place to land if you have loans.
And yet they are always complaining. They think they are special
Facts.
Sell the the degree
He is making 300k a year. He will do great
Notice how you dont ever get calls from medical students being half way through their education calling in
Because then Ramsey would be forced to say drive Uber and door dash through the rest of college
Good catch. So aside from obvious scholarships, financial aid, or daddy’s money.. I wonder what his response is for those who want to pursue a medical or law degree and haven’t started yet. How do you possibly work a job with the academic workload that doctors and lawyers have in order to go through school debt free. Impossible.
For med school, you can do an MD-PhD that covers your cost and pays you a living stipend for both degrees. It's hard to get into but it's also hard to pay off 400k in debt
Or you don’t do it. You aren’t entitled to become a doctor just because you want to be one
Dave has had a few calls like that. And he never really has a clear cut answer. A few of them he suggests MD/PHD, military, or I’ve heard him mention look for a hospital that will pay for it (which doesn’t really exists). He beat around the bush big times on those calls.
@@zachwalters8001 Yeah, I love that "Find a hospital that will pay for your schooling". I think Dave forgot it isn't 1992 any more. We used to get a stipend for continuing ed. Now we are a drag on the facility's bottom line. The world of healthcare has changed. He is right about the military, though. Most of the docs I know couldn't have passed basic. And you still have to be very very bright to be a doc.
I'd flee the country if I owed $400K in student loans.
Its like a mortgage payment and add interest on it too good god.
I hope he doesn't do other stupid things like buy a crazy expensive house or fancy Mercedes
Most graduating doctors have this much debt
Thé FBI will track you down
Jesus I didn’t know the Army Reserve had such a sweet repayment deal
Only for doctora
Kudos to the new introductory tune. It is so much appealing than the old "aggressive pop/rock" tune from the past. Now for the medical debt. Live 10 years on a median income and forget about the typical "rich doctor's" life style and with 200K a year, I don't see how you can't pay off this debt. Again, live in a NORMAL house and drive a NORMAL car (couple of years old used Camry?) and you ought to be fine. Also, if you are willing to work in underserved (needy) areas, you may be eligible for some relief on your loan. Options...options
Nobody becomes a dr to serve the needy or drive a Camry
@@ernestogalvan143 There are a few out there! We know one personally! Rare, indeed, though and I do agree with your suggestions.
Stop telling people what they should buy. This isn’t communism.
THANK YOU. I got tired of that blasting jingle. Got old and annoying really fast
@@DJ-ws6je Exactly, this isn't communism. So as a starting doc, live within your means to pay off debt and then you can "scale up" if you wish. Thanks for your wonderful "input"
Good luck! I got caught up in that trap! People, you are being played.
Which trap? Getting someone else to pay for your student loans and making 300k a year in the very near future?
What trap? Or u didnt read the fine print on all the terms and condition
I watch these videos to remind me to never go back to school, continue to work my blue collar job while running my vending business, and diversify my investments
How much do you make on your vending business?
Some blue collar jobs have tuition reimbursement bennies my friend. I turn wrenches for a living and i go to school for free. Just have to pass the class to get the reimbursement for it.
What blue collar work do you do?
Yes I agree. You more than one income source if you want financial independence. I am working on my third.
“Good lord!” -Dave Ramsey. That says it all. 😁😕
SMART MAN! I joined the Army 20 years ago and had THREE degrees paid for 100% FREE for me. Best decision I ever made was serving my country in this capacity.
Can't beat it
300K salary for family medicine does not sound right.🤔
I agree. But Tulsa is an underserved location they might make more. Here in Texas they make anywhere from 180-240k. 300k for a new family doc is unheard of
Sounds right to me
Fun fact: Oklahoma has the best paid doctors of any state in the country.
With inflation, it seems reasonable, tho on the high end. The guy must be working in a rural/undeserved area.
It’s not 180k-200k is the average
It's ironic that at the time in history when the most free knowledge is available, we are paying so much for validation.
Do you prefer to have your surgery done by a quack who learned everything free from the internet, or by a board certified surgeon who went through extensive medical training? What's next? Bring it on...
@@mathisnotforthefaintofheart Yeah he’s right generally but this one isn’t the best example to make that statement lol
@@mathisnotforthefaintofheart Do you prefer to have your surgery done by a surgeon who is formed outside of USA university madness, or by a surgeon who paid an overpriced education to read the same books any other surgeon in the world will be formed with? By the way, in my opinion medical studies is the only field an institution is needed. Anything else can be learned with a 100$/mo Internet conection.
@@mathisnotforthefaintofheart First of all, your propaganda is good. Doctor's in the USA are not better then other countries. My mom fell sick in FL, she was in the ICU for 16 days... we begged the insurance company to use a air ambulance and fly her to Montreal (where she lives) for treatment... they finally OK our request. She arrived in Canada, taken the to the hospital and two hours later she was in surgery and they saved her life, 100% she would have died if she stayed at the hospital in FL. It was 18 hours of surgery over two days. I am not saying one hospital is better then the other but I will say one doctor could be better then the other and it does not matter which country that doctor is from.
@@ortega6211 Before Obama care I had a family member who traveled to many other countries to exam cost of medical procedures... there was a point in time with so many not being insured that it was cheaper to fly to a country, vacation for two weeks and have your surgery. In South Korea, he noted that surgeons would routinely give you their personal phone number and requested you call them if there were any complications after surgery... do you think this happens here?
People try to keep student loans to extremely low.
Also be careful on medical advice that does not make sense. Second opinions are good too. 🚨
A very smart person once told me SURGEONS LIKE TO CUT... And I went to a surgeon and sure enough he recommended unneeded surgery to me. It is almost like going to a hair dresser and asking them if you need a hair cut.
That's pretty high. But better than an underwater basket weaving degree.
I have a family member who has a degree in African Drumming. I AM NOT LYING. After she did a 3 year silent retreat in AZ then went to Tibet and became a lama. She was a honor student and is VERY VERY smart. Her parents paid 100% of her schooling (very wealthy from CA of course). She now is a Tibetan translator for some famous lama in the US. What is funny is that the famous lama talks and understands English but having a translator makes him perceived to be prestigious and holey.
I know someone who had the gov't (read: you and I) pay for her community college degree at 50. Low income, fired from a dead-end retail job. She took Italian, English literature, and economics. It was a lot of fun for her. She is still working off the books doing exactly what she was doing before. And you and I paid for all of this. Feel taken much?
don't live like a doctor for the first 10 years. no beemers, 4000sf houses and other normal show off doc buys. should pay it off quickly.

Fantastic thinking and solution by Dave. Thinking of all possibilities

Being a doctor is bloody worth it in the USA but in the UK it shouldn’t be taken lol 😂
Cause they cap their salary. Why do you think so many doctors from other countries come here. I feel their salaries should be doubled and that would still be 1/3 of what they get paid here. It is highway robbery in the USA. Do you have any idea how many people go bankrupt from medical expenses... ALOT!!!

@@Kysen10 yea I agree he’s bad
300k for primary care?
Ouch, that is is so painful to hear! It's a shame...
Why is it painful to hear that someone who is making $300k to start AND having 90k in loans paid off by the Army reserve and state of Oklahoma for a total income of $390k per year needs to pay off $415k in loans?
In four years the loans will be paid by someone else and his salary will be $500k per year. In that time he will have earned 1.2 million, which is more than some make in a lifetime. I would love to be in that “painful” position of “shame”.
Good luck. Between student loan debt, medical malpractice and taxes I have no idea why anyone in their right mind would go to med school.
If they are not in their right minds how do they end up acquiring mansions and luxury cars
This is really good advice
Serious question - how exactly did this problem occur? I went in the 90s and it was less than 10k for four years. How is this even possible. That was a 4 year degree at a state school. Why????
Tuition has gone up dramatically since then.
im just finished my second year of medical school and Im already 210k in debt. thats one of my reasons for choosing a surgical specialty, bc i need to be able to pay off what it cost to get here
For the nondocs in the comments just some clarification. Medical school debt free is only attainable if you have coverage for your tuition and living expenses. Medical students are generally not allowed to work so the schools borrow for tuition and a special loan to cover your living expenses. The loans are super higher now bc the government no longer subsidizes the interest while we are in school. Residency is not a good time to start pay back bc you make just enough to keep a roof over your head, eat and get to work. It would be much better if the CMS would build in additional funds to residents to start payback nd not just deferment. Family docs who make more are generally seeing private insurance patients and/or Medicare but not usually Medicaid. For the new residency grads on the thread, you can negotiate loan repayment as a benefit in ANY permanent job contract. Get a lawyer to negotiate the terms. That 500 - 1500 dollars can save you hundreds of thousands down the line. You can direct your sign on and retention bonuses to loan repayment as well. The biggest thing of course is saving more than you spend but these tips can help a huge deal too.
These people be like, I’m in 415 in student loans but only make 275, what should I do, oh nooooo.
It's the same as someone who makes $27,500 a year being in debt $41,500.
@@aprilmcclellan1248 not exactly. You could leverage much greater amounts of money and therefore earn/lose substantially more/less simply by having more cash to utilize, so having 415k in student loan debt with 275k would actually be more optimal if you used the extra money wisely

Untrue. Becoming a physician should not be confined to wealthy families. If a physician is committed to paying off this huge debt by leading a modest lifestyle, it's not a problem at all.

Doesn't that debt pay other medical doctors??
Isn't it annoying to see all these doctors complaining about debt when you are paid over 200 -300 k salaries a year. People with PhD in more difficult subjects don't even earn a third of your incomes. Just shut up
Where would having this $100k place him on the baby steps? Should he still have an emergency fund beyond that?
god, the US school system is amazing isn’t it!
Its amazing if you know how to navigate through it. Most don't. I work in academia and I am baffled by the knowledge students have about their phone and the Kardashians, but don't know the course they are going to take next semester.
I'm amazed by the stupid people that only know getting student loans as only option.
They will not stack. Part of most loan repayment programs make you clearly specify that you are currently not in another loan repayment program

Ouch..
Whats wrong with doctors having 200k student loan debts when you have earning potentials of over 300k annually. Im tired of doctors complaining. All these debts are passed on the poor to pay by high medical bills. How many people with PhD in more difficult subjects with same amount of years spent in education have a third of salaries earn by doctors? Who do these doctors feel they are?
Because PhDs can get their tuition paid off on top of a salary via TA or RAships's during school, MD/DOs don't. So you are debt-free while in school. Med students have to take out loans since they don't get the same opportunities to knock out their debt in school. Plus you don't have to do a post-doc, you can work in industry jobs just fresh out of school. MD/DO need residency and thus can be trapped with that debt if they don't match into residency. PhDs have far less risk when pursuing their degree than a MD/DO. I still think PhDs should be paid more and have every right to complain about it, but the only worry a PhD has is graduating. The reason why you never hear a PhD complaining about debt in STEM is that their ways to knock that out during their degree...
@0doublezero0 how many phds do you see earning even a 100000. Will doctors prefer their fees to be paid by government and earn like phds? They will all say no. Even primary care physicians earn more than double what most phds earn. Specialist earn more than 300000. Doctors in america are becoming too greedy. I wish the government will pay their fees so that they earn normal salaries like others.
No tax on those payments
I cannot fathom making 300k a year.
Ah yes. American freedom. Where you can’t breath due to student loans.
Then don't borrow. Save and pay as you go.
@@jimroscovius Oh come on. You cannot go to medical school on what you can earn while in school.
Even as a resident they pay more than poverty wages (high five figures.) As an attending physician you will make in the low to mid six figures. Having half a million in student debt is entirely manageable if you don't start to live high on the hog before your higher income starts.
Freedom to sign up for student loans.
All about choices.
@@blackworldtraveler3711 Absolutely!!
Just....WHY?
two word debt slavery no school should charge that much ridcusioly
And now here is your 80K salary. Enjoy haha
As a PERIODONTIST that had $300K in debt, if I could go through training again, I'd IMMEDIATELY start focusing on growing multiple passive income streams each year along with paying down student loans. I you're a doctor, lawyer, etc. then you can do BOTH, pay down debt aggressively and invest.
What multiple asset streams?
@@annajones9701 Personally I invest in passive real estate syndications deals. It allows me to focus on treating patients yet reap the benefits of real estate such as passive income and tax benefits.
Wow, $415K. I'd like to see the breakeven analysis on that.
He’s going to be making 300K so not bad
