FIRE Introduction
What is the point of saving? For some it is to buy a house, for others its to buy a nice car or a big holiday. But once you're settled in your living arrangement or there is nothing material to save for, what else should you do with your money? Do you live to work or do you work to live? These deep questions may make you think about the purpose of work and what we really do with our money.
New to Partnership Training Bursary
The new to partnership scheme has an attached £3,000 bursary attached to it for new partners. It's meant to teach new partners the non-clinical skills that should serve them well in their new role. It requires you to pay for the course, and then NHS England will pay your practice back on your 1 year anniversary of being a partner. There are several options available that I'm aware of, listed below.
First Meeting with a Financial advisor
As a member of the BMA, I occasionally get promotional emails from them and their partners. One such partner is Chase de Vere, an independent financial advisor. They send out regular notices of their free webinars talking about retirement planning, wealth building and investment advice, which can be be quite interesting to watch. However one such email invited me to get a free 'financial health check' - this seemed too good to pass up! I thought I'd go through what happened during this health check, and to remind you that no company gives you something of value that is truly free.
