Many physicians don't know where to start when it comes to personal finance. These courses/conferences by the White Coat Investor offer a great foundation in personal finance, and some even offer CME (can use your CME funds!). Even if you plan on using a financial advisor, it's very important to be able to recognize good advice from bad advice. A lot of this information can be found online for free, but these courses will present you with comprehensive content in an organized and easy to understand format, with nice short videos you can reference forever. A great way to learn for those of you that are too busy to curate the content online or prefer video to reading.
