#65: Entrepreneurism - Starting a Loan Program for Docs with Dr. Kenton Allen

Today Kenton Allen, MD, MBA, FASA joins the show to talk about starting Doc2Doc Lending with another co-resident.  After experiencing his own difficulties within the existing banking systems, he helped re-write the script for how doctors can get funding for transitions, side-hustles, fertility journeys, credit card consolidation, and more. He shares:

• why they started their own lending program to fill a void
• the difference between secured and unsecured loans
• the importance of developing positive financial habits and educating yourself
• the importance of understanding your own financial priorities, which can widely vary from person to person
• the importance of being proactive about financial conversations with significant others to prevent significant discontent later
• be choosy with opportunities for side hustles:
  • is it with the right people?
  • is it something you really believe in?
  • is it the right timing?
