      difference probably is their incomes are going up rapidly because they both have/will have ownership of their practices. According to what they said their income is going up about 100k a year. They can make millions with their own practices. I'm not saying other people can't, but it's a lot harder to do otherwise.

    I did a few things differently- no regrets.
    Lived very modestly during med school.
    Started paying off the loans during residency- not easy for a family of four however we managed.
    My colleagues were driving new cars, buying houses. I kept my 16 year old truck.
    First " real" doctor job- maintained same modest lifestyle. Rented a house, kept the older vehicles. Put every possible dollar towards those student loans. The original $120K balance upon med school graduation was down to $75K when I finished residency.
    Within a year I paid off ALL student debt. We purchased a decent house ( NOT the typical " doctor house" ). Kept the older vehicles as they still ran perfectly. I later found out some physicians actually COMPLAINED about my " ugly truck" parked in staff parking.
    HA!
    Within 3 years I still had that old truck and a paid off mortgage.
    No regrets.

    It’s not so easy just to say go buy another practice. The dental employment contracts prevent you from taking your patients with you to another practice and also prevent you from practicing in a certain radius. So you built up your clientele/reputation in one practice and can’t transfer it, you’re starting at nothing again.

    A newly qualified dentist is being ridiculous to get their own practice without having lots of experience of working first. There are so many things to learn about the industry before creating your own business and then your chances of success will be higher - plus the debt thing. If they invest money, they could save up in less time than it takes to gain that experience and JUST THE FACT that going into so much debt doesn't bother him is a sign that he won't be able to manage the business money unless he's lucky enough to never have low periods at work.
