How I Invest as a Nurse Practitioner: My Strategy for Financial Freedom In this video, I share my personal investment strategies as a nurse practitioner living in the Bay Area. I discuss the importance of building automated systems over picking stocks and timing the market. I outline the three main investment accounts that I use: my employer-sponsored 403(b), a Roth IRA, and a taxable brokerage account. I also touch on the benefits of each account and how they fit into my overall financial plan. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of consistency over perfection in investing and share how my approach has given me financial flexibility and freedom. Stick around for the next episode where I'll discuss how to increase your income without working more shifts! 00:00 Introduction 00:59 The Power of Automation in Investing 01:20 The Nurse Money Project: A 12-Week Series 02:27 Living and Investing in the Bay Area 03:12 My Simple and Sustainable Investing Philosophy 03:59 Three Key Investment Accounts for Nurses 05:32 Maximizing Retirement Contributions 07:48 The Flexibility of a Taxable Brokerage Account 09:59 Honorable Mention: Investing for Kids 10:39 My Investment Routine and Philosophy 14:53 The Long-Term Goal: Financial Freedom and Flexibility 16:52 Encouragement for New Investors 17:45 Upcoming Topics and Conclusion Connect with me: Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/nursewhoinvests Website: https://nursingflowsheet.com/ Download MONARCH MONEY: https://monarchmoney.sjv.io/VxYNjk (affiliate link) Budgeting for Beginners: https://nursingflowsheet.com/budgeting-for-beginners/ ➤ Stock Market Investing for Nurses MASTERCLASS (use code:INVESTREADY) REGISTER HERE: https://www.nursewhoinvests.com/investing101 ➤ FREE INVESTING CLASS FOR NURSES https://www.nursewhoinvests.com/class ➤ Subscribe for more videos about nursing, career growth, and financial freedom!
