Are you actually saving enough—or just following a generic percentage? James Nutter introduces the Savings Prescription, a practical framework for working backward from your real goals to determine exactly what your future requires each month.
You make plenty of money. You’re saving plenty of money.
But are you actually saving enough?
Most physicians have heard the same advice: save 20%. Save 30%. Max your retirement accounts. Live like a resident.
But none of those rules know what your life actually requires.
In Episode 10 of Take Control Rx, James introduces the Savings Prescription—a way to stop guessing how much you should save and start working backward from the life and goals you actually want.
You’ll learn how to turn a meaningful goal into a specific monthly savings target, compare what your future requires with what you actually have available, and identify the decisions to make if there’s a gap.
Because having a high income doesn’t automatically mean you’re on pace.
The real question is:
On pace for what?
Take the Big Three goals you defined in Episode 9, calculate the monthly Savings Prescription for each, and compare the total with your Free Cash Flow.
Then ask:
Does what’s free cover what the future requires?
Download Your Savings Prescription to work through your Top Three goals and calculate what each one is asking you to save every month.
