I'm curious - do you have a specific financial goal to reach by the end of residency (or fellowship)?
I've been talking to folks, lots don't have any specific goals at all. Some have goals like "to save up enough to pay for my board exam" or "to afford to take a vacation between residency and starting work". I had a goal to pay off my private student loans by the end of residency. By the end of fellowship, I wanted to achieve net worth zero.
Do you have specific financial goals, or are you just getting by until you get a bigger paycheck?
