Description:

As a dentist, you likely earn a good income, but that doesn’t always mean you feel organized, confident, or fully in control of your finances. It’s common to wonder: Am I actually doing the right things with my money? 

In this session, Matt Mulcock, CFP® from Dentist Advisors will walk through a clear, practical framework to help you answer that question with confidence. 

You’ll start by learning the four foundations of financial health (saving enough, managing debt wisely, spending with intention, and maintaining the right level of liquidity to learn how you can quickly assess where you stand today. From there, the focus will shift to your income: one of the most misunderstood financial areas for dentists. You’ll learn how to think more accurately about what you earn, including the key difference between your personal income and your practice’s profitability. You’ll gain clarity on where your money is actually going and whether it’s aligned with what matters most to you. Matt will also cover how to approach saving across different accounts like 401(k)s, IRAs, Roth IRAs, and brokerage accounts, along with how to think through the decision to pay down debt versus invest. Finally, you’ll get a straightforward look at tax strategies that are practical and worth implementing. 

If you’re looking for a more structured way to evaluate your finances and make smarter decisions with your income, this session will give you a clearer path forward. 

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand the four foundations of financial health and how to assess your current financial position 
  • Learn how to accurately calculate income and differentiate between personal income and practice profitability (EBITDA)
  • Identify where your money is going and how to align spending with your priorities 
  • Evaluate saving strategies across retirement and investment accounts (401(k), IRA, Roth IRA, brokerage)
  • Develop a framework for balancing debt repayment, investing, and tax-efficient decision-making
