MtoM #171: Medical Student Creates a Budget and Finance 101: Donor Advised Funds

Today we interview an MS1 who is celebrating making a budget for the first time. He said he wants to inspire others to do whatever they can to mitigate the financial burden of medical school. He shared that simply by having a budget he is actually spending less because he is more aware of where all of his money is going. We know that the earlier you get started becoming financially literate the better off you will be and this student is well on his way! After the interview we are talking about donor advised funds for Finance 101.
