MtoM #264: Paying Off $250,000 in Student Loans in a HCOL Area
Monday, 2 March, 2026
In this Milestones to Millionaire episode, we follow the financial journey of a gynecologic oncologist navigating student loans, a high cost of living, and the long runway to physician wealth. We discuss what it looks like to build wealth while still carrying debt, how short-term sacrifices can support long-term financial stability, and whether becoming a doctor still makes financial sense in today's environment. This episode highlights the tradeoffs, patience, and intentionality required during the early and mid-career years of medicine. These are the kinds of real-world financial decisions many physicians face—but rarely talk about openly. If you're a high-income physician, you already know how hard you work for every dollar. The question is: how much are you actually keeping after taxes? Gelt is a tax firm focused on proactive tax strategy, guided by expert CPAs and optimized via in-house AI tools. They work with physicians and practice owners to use the tax code more intelligently so your structure, deductions, and planning help you keep more of what you earn. As a White Coat Investor reader, you can book a free strategy intro at https://joingelt.com and receive 10% off your first year with Gelt. It's time to start using your tax plan as a lever for growth. Celebrating your stories of success along the journey to financial freedom!
