High income doesn’t always mean financial health. In Take Control Rx #3, James Nutter walks physicians through three Financial Vitals—cash reserves, cash flow, and protection—to help you assess whether your financial life is truly stable before moving on to investments, taxes, and other strategies.
You would never treat a patient without checking their vital signs first.
So why do we do exactly that with our money?
We invest. We chase tax strategies. We open retirement accounts. We buy insurance.
All before answering one important question:
Is the patient actually stable?
In Episode 3 of Take Control Rx, we're performing a Financial Physical by checking your three Financial Vitals:
🫁 Oxygen — Cash Reserves
Can your financial life breathe when life doesn't go according to plan?
❤️ Pulse — Cash Flow & Intentionality
Is your money moving toward the life you want—or is it simply moving?
🛡️ Immune System — Protection & Preparedness
If something happened tomorrow, would the people you love be protected?
Because a physician making $700,000 can be financially healthier than one making $1.5 million.
Income is appearance. Vital signs reveal health.
