Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death for men and women in the United States.
Please join me and @RepMarkGreen, co-chairs of the Congressional Colorectal Cancer Caucus, for a briefing on the increase in colorectal cancer cases among young adults.
Training is done and you’re about to start making $225,000.
This isn’t a discussion on tax detail so let’s just say you’re out 35% for taxes.
If you want to protect 20% for retirement savings, (10% in pretax 401(k) contributions and the other 10% taxed and put in Backdoor Roth and a taxable investment account) how would you organize the remaining 45% or $101,250?
That’s $8,400/month.
Do you have credit card debt to pay off?
How will you structure your student loan payoff?
Do you have emergency savings?
Do you have kids - how much is childcare? Relative to retirement savings, where does college savings fit in for you?
What kind of home can you afford?
Are your cars reliable for the foreseeable future or no?
What refreshment spending gives you real joy? And what are some old behaviors that cost money are sticking around but aren’t doing it for you anymore?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
These questions are good to ask because you want to step very carefully in these early high income years.
Too young for Colorectal Cancer? Think again. CRC is on the rise in young people with recent data showing it is the leading cause of cancer death among men aged 20–49 years, with incidence rate is increasing by 1.5% every year in people under 50. #colorectalcancerawarenessmonth

I found an “affordable” place in Miami Beach 6 minutes away from @MountSinaiMiami and no Miami traffic. $7000 for 5 rooms.
All I need to do is to find 4 other interns who want to live Grey Anatomy style. #Match2023#FirstGen problems. 🤣🤣🤣
