In Episode 78 of Doctor’s Wealth and Wellness, host Norm Wright calmly dissects the burning question on every physician’s mind—“Is this another dot-com bubble?”—acknowledging the striking similarities (top 10 stocks nearing 40% of the S&P 500, frothy AI hype, and stretched valuations) but emphasizing the fundamental difference: unlike 1999–2000, when the largest companies generated only 12% of total earnings on little or no profit, today’s Magnificent Seven and AI leaders produce over 30% of S&P earnings (and growing) with record profitability and real cash flow—not speculation—fueling the build-out, trading at 28–30× forward earnings instead of infinite P/Es. While concentration risk and a potential sharp pullback remain real, a catastrophic 80% crash would require profits to vanish, which current data contradicts. Wright’s clear takeaway for busy doctors: this is not a repeat of 2000, time in the market still crushes timing the market, and the immediate action is to log in this week, check your true top-10 exposure (likely higher than you realize), and rebalance if it’s keeping you up at night—offering a free risk analysis and 30-minute consult at support@skcfinancial.com for anyone worried about an “AI bubble.” Examples in this episode are hypothetical and not representative of a specific individual.

In Episode 77 of Doctor’s Wealth and Wellness, host Norm Wright introduces deliberate cognitive-resilience training as the missing piece for physicians battling chronic fatigue and decision overload, citing a 2025 Annals of Surgery RCT showing just 10 minutes daily reduced diagnostic errors by 19%, decision fatigue by 24%, and mental fog by 31% even post-call, while a parallel JAMA Neurology study found the same drills improved complex financial decisions under exhaustion by 27%. He shares the exact three evidence-backed protocols used by his highest-performing clients: Dual N-Back training (free Brain Workshop app) to skyrocket working memory, as cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Chen and PICU intensivist Dr. Emily did to recall guidelines instantly and halve med-check times; spaced-repetition flashcards via Anki or Quizlet for near-perfect retention of guidelines, drugs, and money rules, with hospitalist Dr. Nadia retaining 96% of 1,400 cards and oncologist Dr. Raj cutting chemo lookups 70%; and 90-second deliberate decision drills under time pressure, making oncologist Dr. James’s tumor boards feel “slow” and dermatologist-investor Dr. Lisa’s real-estate calls fatigue-proof. Wright calls cognitive training the ultimate longevity protector for earning power and patient safety, challenges listeners to pick one drill and practice daily for seven days while journaling results, and offers to personally share his medicine-and-money Anki decks via support@skcfinancial.com or a free 30-minute consult.

In Episode 76 of Doctor’s Wealth and Wellness, host Norm Wright reveals how physician side gigs—moonlighting, locums, telemedicine, expert witness, and chart review—can accelerate wealth like nothing else, with the 2025 Doximity report showing average earners adding $94K annually and the top 10% clearing $220K–$400K, while 62% of doctors now have at least one per Medscape. He shares the three unbreakable rules used by his seven- and eight-figure physician clients: choose gigs that fit your current life stage and risk tolerance (e.g., ER doc Dr. Alex switched from $28K-tail moonlighting to $180/hr fully-covered telemedicine, banking $192K while staying home with his kids); treat every dollar like a real business from day one with an LLC/S-corp, separate checking, and aggressive deductions (dermatologist Dr. Priya nets 72 cents on the dollar from her $220K Saturday telemed gig); and set a hard “Freedom Number” cap, automate every deposit, and quit cold turkey once the goal is hit (internist Dr. Mike erased $118K in loans with ten months of targeted work, then shut it off forever). Wright stresses that without these guardrails side income becomes another burnout trap instead of rocket fuel, challenges listeners to complete one action this week—build their gig/non-negotiable list, open a business account, or post their Freedom Number—and offers to personally review contracts and tax structures at no charge via support@skcfinancial.com or a free 30-minute consult.
