The Ethics of Asset Protection

18/07/202321/04/2025dansa

PIMD welcomes the White Coat Investor. WCI is a physician-specific personal finance and investing website. The White Coat Investor can help you to become financially literate and disciplined, which will allow you to spend your time and effort on your patients, your family, and your own wellness. WCI truly believes that a financially secure doctor is a better partner, parent, and practitioner. White Coat Investor is an affiliate partner of PIMD.

When I first started blogging at The White Coat Investor, I thought I’d be writing frequently about asset protection. It was one of the five or six main topics on the blog. Then I discovered the truth about asset protection what most doctors don’t know: it’s incredibly rare to lose personal assets in a malpractice lawsuit. Being a risk-taker by nature, I quit worrying all that much about it, especially when I realized the majority of my net worth at the time was in retirement accounts that had excellent asset protection from my potential creditors.

I’ve still written about asset protection from time to time on the blog, and I talk about it all the time because the docs are so interested in it. It’s in the WCI Online

What is a recession? The economic concepts explained. What causes and happens during one.

14/02/2023dansa

Inflation has slowed down and gross domestic product has revived, but most economists still expect a mild recession this year.

In December, consumer prices rose 6.5% from a year earlier but that was down from a 40-year high of 9.1% in June. Core prices, which exclude volatile food and energy items, rose 5.7% annually, according to the Labor Department’s consumer price index.

Another CPI report is due out Tuesday and is expected to offer key insights on the state of the economy.

Meanwhile, GDP, or the value of all goods and services produced in the US, increased by 2.6% in the quarter that ended Sept. 30, after dropping at an annual rate of 1.6% in the first three months of the year and 0.6% in the second three, according to the federal Bureau of Economic Analysis.
