Episode Transcript
Tim Ulbrich: Let’s jump into our first question, which comes from Cory in Tucson, Arizona.
Hey YFP crew, how can a pharmacist grow their income? With a high floor, low ceiling profession like ours, finding ways to increase money coming in may be of interest given there is only so much frugaling you can do. And if I frugal anymore, my wife and kids just might revolt. Thanks, and no pressure, you just might save this household.
Tim Ulbrich: Corey, thanks so much for taking time to submit your question. Tim Baker, what are your thoughts?
Tim Baker: Yeah, so I was thinking about this from the pharmacist angle. Versus like, how can I make additional money where you could sell things, recycle, donate plasma? Anybody can do that. But I’m really thinking about this from the pharmacist angle.
I kind of think about it. in really two parts, the first part being where my feet [00:01:00] are and what I’m currently doing. And then what is outside of what I’m currently doing? You know, if we talk about diversifying your income streams or exploring entrepreneurial ventures. So I think the first part is, if you’re a pharmacist and XYZ organization, you know, and again, this is going to be dependent.
And I realized that. The more specialized or niche that you are, the more attractive or the more you can, you know, kind of demand, from, like, a salary perspective, we know this through, like, board certification and things like that, Tim. So it could be that right.
And, you know, our niche is working with pharmacists on their financial plan. If I go back in time and, you know, I commented on your posts on LinkedIn about you, shifting away from academia to go to YFP. And I was thinking about my own journey. And like, when I was launching script financial, which is now YFP, you know, I could have said, Hey, it’s Baker financial advisors, but I don’t think that would really speak to anybody except for myself.
I think being niched, in [00:02:00] any type of profession can be really helpful, for your career. And I think about this, and we’ll talk about a little bit in the 2nd part of this question of, building, a brand when I think of, oncology and pharmacist, I think of, a particular person.
Kelly Carlstrom, if I think of, geriatrics, I think of a particular person functional medicine. I think of a particular person. If you can distinguish yourself, as the, thought leader in that particular niche. That can lead to other, opportunities to make income.
So it could be specialization. It could be pursuing leadership positions or additional opportunities within your organization, to make additional income. And I think the other probably more obvious thing, Tim, that a lot of pharmacists, maybe aren’t great at is just negotiation.
Right? So If you kind of look at a traditional financial plan, it’s kind of where you’re at. What’s the balance sheet? Where are we going goal set in it’s fundamentals like a savings plan, cashflow and budget and [00:03:00] debt. It’s investment retirement, looking for more of the longterm stuff.
It’s wealth protection, insurance planning, and a state planning. That’s essentially a financial plan. But one of the things early on, in my career at script and then YFP was. Really talking about sour negotiation. And I think what I was seeing that there was a lot of meat left on the bone with regard to this transaction, so to speak.
So, you know, I would talk to a pharmacist and then say, Hey, good news, Tim. I just got a new job or. Whatever it is, and I would say, great, like, what did you counter and it would be like crickets, right? And I think the response that I would typically get is like, I didn’t, I didn’t count.
I was just happy to have a job. And I’m like, I totally get that. I totally get that, but I think having some tools to be able to advocate for yourself in those moments. And it’s not just when you change jobs, I would argue that you should have those conversations.
Really, at a minimum, [00:04:00] anytime that you’re talking about your review, if you get reviewed, twice a year, once a year, that type of thing. I think if you can develop some of those tools to advocate for yourself, you put yourself. In a better situation to grow your income as per the question, and it’s often a missed opportunity where it’s kind of uncomfortable.
Maybe it’s a little yuck that we feel greedy that we don’t necessarily. Put ourselves in a position to make the most that we can. So from the, where are we at perspective, you know, pursuing leadership positions, potentially specialize in, and negotiating your salary. Those are 3 things that if I’m a pharmacist, I’m saying, hey, those things I should do.
I think the other. Two things, diversifying income stream, entrepreneurial stuff there. I kind of lump those together. So it could be, you know, part time or per diem work. I know I talked to some pharmacists. They’re like, I want to earn income. But then when I’m like, well, why don’t you pick up an extra shift?
They’re like, they want to strangle me. And I understand that. But I also would say here, Tim, I [00:05:00] think some of the trap that pharmacists fall into is. Any additional income has to be on par with what I make as a pharmacist, and I would push back on that. So as an example, if you make 70 an hour as a pharmacist, like any additional money that you make has to kind of be, on par with that.
And I think that doesn’t necessarily play right. So I would put that as and again, it’s a trade off, right?
So I think you got to have to figure that out and what’s a good number there. So it could be part time or per diem work. It could be consultant. It could be MTM. It could be, you know, just working with long term care facilities or clinics, medical writing.
We’ve had clients that have been really successful at that could be teaching or precept in freelance work that kind of falls into the medical writing or drug information resources, that type of thing. So I do think that there’s lots of opportunities out there. It’s just matter of, like, [00:06:00] finding them and kind of getting into a rhythm of, okay, this is worth my time or it’s not,
other things that could be something like, hey, you take a bold move and you open your own pharmacy. I think there’s a lot of innovation to be had there. I know there’s a lot of pharmacies that are open and they’re kind of operating outside of insurance. It could be to start a consultant business.
It could be to develop a product or service. I know we’ve talked to some of these fellowship programs across the country, and we’ve seen pharmacists that in fellowship, are developing a product, that is really exciting. And it could be, something that’s more non traditional whether it’s building a personal brand, content creation, trying to, start a blog, monetize it, a YouTube channel.
Public speaking, which I know can be somewhat tough. Sometimes, we give that away for free. And that’s, the system in which we’re in, or writing a book. Obviously, you have some experience with that creating courses. I think there’s a lot of things out there. To potentially do, and try and I think the goal here is to figure out what is the goal for this additional income is to pay down a debt. Is [00:07:00] it to retire early?
Is it fire? Those types of things. And if you can kind of align again the things that you’re passionate about, and monetize it, that’s great. But that doesn’t always like work out, right? We know that sometimes we just got to pay the bills and that’s the focus. So, again, thinking about this from a pharmacy perspective, that’s kind of where I took it.
But there’s a million other ways. I think you know that you could potentially earn additional income. That’s kind of more or less non pharmacy related.
Tim Ulbrich: And I’m glad you took that approach to him, right? Because, you know, if we open up the doors beyond pharmacy, of course, we get into things like real estate, right. And other types of opportunities, which are certainly possibilities, but I also love that you asked a really important question at the end of your answer there, which is like, what are we trying to achieve?
What are we trying to accomplish? Because I think as Corey alluded to in his question, there can be a frugality fatigue that can happen. You know, over time, we often talk about cutting expenses, cutting expenses, cutting expenses, and certainly that can help us as we’re trying to achieve any goal, whether that [00:08:00] be putting extra towards savings, whether that be paying down debt.
But there’s also the income side of the equation, which is what we’re talking about here. And of course you put both those together and really good things, you know, start to happen, but what is the goal? What are we trying to accomplish? And I think in this discussion. Because you bring up a really interesting point that, you know, when you talk to pharmacists that are looking for extra income, it’s like, Hey, how many professions are there where you’re making 70 bucks an hour, you can just go pick up extra shifts and they’re like, Tim, I don’t want to go pick up extra shifts.
And it’s interesting because then it’s like, all right, tell me more. And they’re spending
hours upon hours upon hours and not earning nearly what they could in picking up extra shifts. And, and I say that not out of judgment out of that, but out of, you know, What that tells me is, well, maybe there’s something here just beyond the dollars and cents, like, is there an interest or a passion, or, you know, I really just want to kind of tap into a different creative side of this work that maybe I’m not getting or feeling in my everyday work.
And, and all of [00:09:00] a sudden the conversation changes a little bit of like, sure, there’s a financial aspect, but maybe there’s also some type of, you know, purpose or creativity outlet or something of what are we trying to accomplish? What are we trying to do? Through earning additional income and diversifying these streams.
Tim Baker: Yeah. I, I, I think, uh, another, you know, point to that. Cause if people talk about, oh, you can get paid to do your passion. That’s a great thing. One of my first entrepreneurial endeavors was like, I was second grade and I got really big into like drawing different Garfield and things like that.
And I started a shop and I had all these orders. And then I got behind track, you know, I was charging like a quarter for every drawing. And then it became like a job. I’m under this deadline to get these drawings out. And I’m like, man, I hate Garfield. I don’t like Bart Simpson anymore.
I kind of became like a passion of mine kind of became a job. And that was like, you know, a kind of a core memory of mine of like, man, I don’t want to do something like that again. So that it can have negative consequences, but [00:10:00] yeah, I mean, like. I think a lot of people are like, yeah, but what about, you know, what about my student loans?
You know, I have to make additional money to get through that. But I’m like, well, maybe there’s a different path, you know, maybe, looking at, you know, where you work and you can do something similar from a for profit to a nonprofit that kind of allows you to work smarter, not harder.
That plays. So, you know, there’s probably a question. We probably need to go a question or 2 or 3 deeper on Corey’s question again. If we were in kind of a client planner type of environment to kind of get to the core of that, but as an entrepreneur, I love the idea. You know, everyone talks about, oh, we have to cut expenses.
I love the idea of, like, growing top line income. Right? That excites me because. If you can figure a model out you could potentially uncap your income. That’s exciting. But often takes a lot of work in iteration to figure out what that is. If we’re talking about it from a business perspective.
Tim Ulbrich: a few resources to that we have in this area that we’ll link to in the show notes. I want to [00:11:00] make sure folks are aware and they can dig deeper. We’ve got a blog post that goes back a while now. 19 ways that pharmacists can make some extra money just to get the ideas going. On episode three 88 recently, I interviewed four pharmacist entrepreneurs.
That are doing very different things and a couple of them, still working, full time in their pharmacy jobs while they pursue their businesses, wide array of different types of experiences and how they have monetized their clinical expertise. So check out that interview. I think it can stimulate some ideas.
And then finally, we’ve talked about salary negotiation before on this show. We’ll link to that. I think that’s an incredible resource and you articulated well. It’s a skill that often we don’t have, maybe aren’t comfortable with, but that might move the needle more than anything we’re talking about here.
Especially when we think about the compound effect of that.
Tim Baker: yeah, and probably something to also interject him, you know, obviously, I’m a financial planner. So maybe someone’s like sitting here listening and thinking, like, why isn’t him talking about like, invest in for like passive [00:12:00] income?
But sometimes I talk to prospective clients that are like, hey, I want to invest for passive income. And I need it like next year and what I would say is, is that typically when you’re investing for income, you’re typically doing that over a lifetime of investing where you’re, you know, we will take the 4 percent role.
Right? If you manage to accumulate a million dollars in an investment account from a retirement planning perspective, the rule of thumb is, if you take 4 percent of that or 40, 000, that, portfolio can. Last for 20, 30 years or longer. In that case, it’s less about appreciation of stock mutual fund ETF prices and more about safety in principle. So you’re not taking as much risk. The income, the dividends, the interest payments are creating that 4 percent of that 40, 000 for you to live off of.
So obviously it takes time to do that. Now there are certain [00:13:00] examples. Where it doesn’t take that long, you know, it could be closely held stock or something like that. And those are, certain situations where people have access to buying into a privately held company or a small company, things like that.
But typically, you know, a, hey, I want to invest for passive income is a long term play. It’s, you know, I’m trying to grow these dollars as much as possible to then eventually turn that faucet on and live off of that. And I’m not saying people can’t do that in a shorter time frame, but typically, you’re doing this in conjunction with putting money into your 401k, your IRAs, other things, and then also, looking at a passive play.
That’s typically, decades , in the making
Tim Ulbrich: Good stuff. Alright, let’s move on to our next question, which comes from Amanda from Brainerd,
Minnesota.
Amanda: Hi, YFP. My name is Amanda and I’m from Brainerd, Minnesota. My husband and I welcomed our first child this year, and we are wondering what we need to know about 529 [00:14:00] college savings plans, and if there are good strategies for saving for our child’s education while still meeting our other financial goals, like saving for retirement and paying off our mortgage.
Tim Baker: I kind of would start with the question is like, what’s the goal? Right? So, you know, oftentimes when I ask this question, it’s like, I don’t really know, or we don’t really have a goal. So, is it hey, I want to get my kid through 2 years of school, 4 years of school, you know, is it masters doctorate is a public private in state out of state.
I think probably kicking the tires on, what that looks like is important. And, I think there are a lot of people that are apprehensive of 529 plan. So, just to kind of define what a 529 plan, it’s a tax advantage savings plan design to encourage savings for education costs.
There’s typically 2 types. You have a college savings plan, which is an investment account that grows tax deferred with withdrawals that are tax [00:15:00] free for qualified expenses. And there’s a slew of qualified expenses that were more narrow when they first came out that are become more broad, as years go on.
And I think it’s going to continue to do that. You also have, a prepaid tuition plan, which is typically a lot less popular, but this allows you to prepay tuition at today’s rates for, participating schools for the future. And, you know, there’s pros and cons, of each, but I think typically people go into, the college savings and they’re more familiar and comfortable with, okay, I’m saving for education,
retirement in my 401k. So the big draw here is the tax advantages. So at the federal level, earnings grow tax deferred and withdrawals are tax free for qualified education expenses at the state level. Many states offered tax deductions or credits for contributions if you use your state’s plans.
And there is a slew of, you know, states that offer tax benefits for, you know, using their own plans, their states [00:16:00] that doesn’t matter. You can use any plan and then there’s states that don’t have income tax. So you don’t really get a benefit. And then there’s states that are kind of more, um, we don’t care if you.
Put money in a 529, you don’t get any benefit looking at you, California, Delaware, Hawaii, Kentucky, North Carolina. So the thing about this is like, you get the benefit at the state level, kind of on the front end and then on the back end, you typically get the benefit at the state and the federal level.
I think what often happens is that people let the tax advantages kind of drive their contribution amounts. And it’s not necessarily a terrible thing, but it can be, especially like, if you’re over saving, or potentially under saving. So I think, again, looking at. What is the goal? We’ve talked about previously, Tim, the one third role and that’s kind of what my family does.
What Shane I do for our 3 kids. I think that’s important to know. We talked, qualified education expenses, tuition fees, room, board, books, supplies, equipment, you can use it for student loan repayments, apprenticeship costs. I think the other thing that I would say is not all 529s are [00:17:00] created equal.
Thank you. So research and plans, we did this with Ohio one where we’re like, Hey, it’s, rated at one of the better plans in the country. But if I compare that to like, are like how we manage money at YFP, it’s more expensive, right? Um, so you want to compare plans from different States, depending on where you’re resident, what plan to use.
You want to look for plans that have low administrative and investment fees. Um, you know, that have a kind of a diverse investment, options, understand what the contribution limits and when you get the benefit, you know, being able to understand who owns the account. So like I have three accounts for my three kids.
I am the account owner and they, the three of them are beneficiaries. You can change beneficiaries. So if Olivia decides not to go to college, I can use that money for Liam. or Zoe. In the future, you know, I don’t, I think sometimes people get worried that like, if there isn’t an out, what do I use that for?
So like, I don’t have a problem with, you know, given that to a relative, a grandkid, that type of thing. So, but at the minute, at the end of the day, like if you decide to get the money out, it’s a penalty and you pay tax, right. So it’s not the end of the world, I think for the most part, if you think your child is going to go through [00:18:00] some type of training post high school, it’s a good vehicle to use.
Um, You know, obviously there’s risks, you know, when, when, anytime you invest any money, you know, there’s no guarantee that you’re going to get a return, understanding, when you get penalized for pulling out, early and what that looks like. So those would be the highlights Tim, in terms of a 529, maybe a coin flip is maybe a little too much, but it’s typically 50 50 where people are like, yeah, I’m all in on a 529 and there’s probably another 50 percent that are apprehensive. So again, I think asking those questions of, like, what’s the goal? You know, like, what do how do you view this money?
And going from there is really important, but there’s a lot going on here, right? In terms of, the type of plan, how you invest it. How does that what’s the glide path of those investments over time? What are the fees? Multiple kids, you know, there’s a lot of new rules with, you being able to transfer it over to a Roth in the future and all those things.
So there’s quite a bit at play here with regard to this decision, but I think it is a valuable bucket to use. If you [00:19:00] have, a solid belief that your child is going to do some type of, training or education post high school.
Tim Ulbrich: Yeah, let me throw out a couple of resources, Tim, for those listening that want to dig deeper. And then I’ve got a couple other thoughts I want to get your input on. So we have a blog post, seven things to consider before starting a five to nine plan, that goes in a little bit more depth along what Tim was saying, and then not too long ago, we did an episode three 68, how much is enough when it comes to kids college.
Right. So we think about that question often in terms of retirement. I don’t know if we think about that same question when we think about kids college and to your point about what’s the goal? You know, you mentioned the third, a third, a third rule. We talk about that in that episode, but if we can have a North star of what’s the desired output, we can then backtrack into what do we need to be saving today based on a set of assumptions.
And that’s helpful if we back up though, just a minute, you know, to my experience and there’s no judgment, out there because I felt this myself is. When people go through their own journey of incurring a lot of student loan debt and the pain that can come with that, I think that leads [00:20:00] to a tendency to want to maybe either over save or not prioritize these in the way that maybe objectively you would, right?
And so I think intent is good, but, you know, if I went through my own journeys, I did a paying off a couple hundred thousand dollars of debt, naturally, I’m like, I don’t want my kids to ever have to go through that good intent.
Tim Baker: The other way, too, where it’s like, hey, I
Tim Ulbrich: No, you’re going to go,
Tim Baker: Yeah, I’ve seen that. And that might be a
Tim Ulbrich: that’s a
Tim Baker: pretty even split as well. You know, it’s like, hey, it’s just it’s kind of the rite of passage. But yeah, I’ve seen it both ways where it’s like, hey, I don’t want my child ever have to experience that.
But then also, like, I had to so.
Tim Ulbrich: Yeah. And I think where this can come into context with planning is we can try to more objectively look at this. So for example, if someone’s listening and then they fall onto the side of, Hey, I went through this. I don’t want my kid to go through this. You know, we might then have a tendency to put some of these steps out of order.
We think about some of the baby steps of the financial plan, getting the emergency fund set up, making sure we eliminate any high interest rate, credit card debt. Making sure we’ve got the base of [00:21:00] our own debt repayment plan. Not to say we have to be debt free, but at least have the plan of where we’re going, making sure we’ve got a base of our own investing strategy and thinking about the future.
And so does the 529, if it fits in, depending on your goals and vision for your own kids, then the question is where, right? Where does it fit in with other things?
Tim Baker: Yeah, and I think what you’re alluded to is this need for some people, you know, I’ve gone through that debt journey to overcorrect, in the face of their own plan. Right? And, you know, what a financial planner will say, eloquently will be like, hey, Tim, you can take a student loan or your child can take a student loan.
You can’t take a retirement loan. So there could be a world where you. Forego your own retirement and you’re really working on the 5 29 and then when they go to college or you’re using that and kind of the income that you’re earning at that time and then you’re impoverished in retirement and your kids have to take care of you on [00:22:00] the back end instead.
So again, that’s kind of an extreme example, but yeah, I think again, we always talk about intention here, right? And I think sometimes, you know, we talk about this with invest, invest in, sometimes emotions can really, wreak habit in a well laid plan. And, you know, I think emotions are important.
You know, hey, I would sleep a lot better at night if our emergency fund was X instead of Y do it. Right? I think though that, education is 1 of those gray areas where it’s like, I know I should be doing something here, but I don’t really know what it is and dependent on my own experience, I’m going to overcorrect or not address it at all.
And you have the opportunity to do so and do it in a meaningful way. Again, I think it’s one of those parts of your financial plan that is important. And maybe, you know, it goes along the, hey, put your mask on first before you put on your child’s mask, the airplane example. But it’s [00:23:00] worthy of examination.
Tim Ulbrich: Yeah. In my experience, Tim tells me that the emotions in the math, which I firmly agree are both important. They’re not independent variables, right? So, you know, when, when you took, me through the kids college savings calculator, answering the question, how much is enough when you can get to the granularity, sure.
It’s based on a set of assumptions and those assumptions can change, will change potentially, just like we talked about with retirement, but when I can look at it and say, okay, I’ve got a five year old, A nine year old, a 12 year old, a 13 year old. Here’s what we have for each of them saved today based on let’s assume, you know, four year in state public tuition.
We’ve got a great university in our backyard here. Go Buckeyes. Um, so we’ll, we’ll use that for assumptions and, and we’ll look at certain, savings rate of returns and other things like, and we’d start to distill it down to, okay, we want to pay a third. Are we ahead? Are we behind? Are we on track?
And then what would it mean monthly? To get on track with where we want to be like that type of analysis [00:24:00] can inform the emotions. Meaning that, you know, I can be looking at this thinking kids college. I don’t know. We’re just kind of throwing money at it. I know we need to be saving.
Are we there? Are we not there? Like that’s unsettling. And I think the math can help inform that
Tim Baker: yeah, it’s the same kind of analysis that we go through with, you know, um, retirement, you know, this is a little bit more of a tighter schedule because you’re typically looking at 18 ish years versus like a 30 year career. But yeah, it’s the same thing. And what I always kind of. You know, I, I, I go back to my first job and, you know, in financial planning, you know, we would say, Hey, client, Hey, Tim, you need 2.
65 million for retirement. And then we kind of go on to the next thing and you could literally see, their eyes gloss over because if you’re 10 plus years from retirement. It doesn’t connect, so going through that analysis, whether it’s retirement or education planning, it could be incremental things like, Hey, save 75 more for this kid and you should be fine.
Put this lump sum that you have. And then [00:25:00] save 50 more and you’d be okay. Right. Or, let’s tweak some things here. You’re really conservatively, invested right now and you still have. 12 years until they go to like, let’s modify that. So it’s taken those, and this is just financial planning and, it’s taken those large problems and then basically, breaking it down to what can I be doing today, this month to affect change.
And again, like, it’s not always going to be perfect, but I think with education planning in particular, like. If I, you know, if I can get to, like, if my full, solution is to pay a third to do the 33 percent role and I’m at, you know, 29%, maybe I have to reach into my pocket a little bit more in, like, when, when my kid goes to college, or they have to take a little bit of a more of a student loan.
But like, it’s, it’s we’re right there. Right? And I think a lot of people, they throw up their hands are like, ah, this is too big of a problem. And they just. Yeah. Keep on keeping on and they don’t really, again, they don’t analyze where they’re at and, you know, where they need to go.
Tim Ulbrich: Yeah, I think as we talk about all the time, it’s taking these unanswered questions that are constantly swirling in our mind, right? These unclosed loops [00:26:00] that are causing some of the stress anxiety, getting them written down on paper and then developing a plan. And sometimes that plan means to what you said earlier, we only have so much money in a given month, right?
