About James Dahle: 

 

"My name is Jim Dahle. I am a practicing board-certified emergency physician 12 years out of residency.  Although I’ve always been interested in personal finance and investing, I really started diving into the field mid-way through residency when I finally got sick of financial professionals ripping me off.  You can read the “origin story” for this blog if you want the gory details.

 

Bottom line, I’m apparently a slow learner, but I finally realized that if I didn’t acquire at least a basic understanding of personal finance and investing that I would continue to be the target of unethical financial professionals for the rest of my life, and perhaps never reach my financial goals. So I embarked on a lengthy, self-taught process to learn personal finance and investing, particularly as it applied to physicians and other high income professionals like myself. After a few years of reading books and blogs and participating on internet forums, I realized I was doing a lot more teaching than learning and that nobody was teaching this stuff to doctors. Not in medical school. Not in residency. And not to busy attending docs. I couldn’t find a single active financial blog out there that was directed at physicians. So I started it myself to provide the resource that I wish had been available to me. "
