ODs on Finance

Our mission is to provide optometrists with the necessary resources to be financially successful

✅ Mission: To cultivate financial competence and career success among all doctors of optometry 🤓 and other high-earning health care professionals.
✅ Too often we come across people that are confused about finances and in considerable debt, despite being high income earners 💰
✅ Through education, discussion and tools - ODs on Finance seeks to be a universal resource on everything finance related. We also seek to enable every optometrist to reach their true potential in their careers either as an employee or practice owner.
✅ Our goal is to see our colleagues living debt free, financially unrestricted lives with a high net worth.

⏩ Financial freedom is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself. Let's Get Started! 🙌

💰A Roth IRA is the most powerful retirement account

• The Roth IRA limit is $7,000 in 2025, will increase to $7,500 for 2026 🙌

• That's only $145 per week.

• Invest that money into a low-cost, broad-market S&P 500 index fund like $VOO or $VTI for 35 years

• You only have to contribute $244,000 of your own money

• However, that account should grow to $2.2 Million of passive, tax-free income (assuming 10% growth).

That's the power of tax-free growth and compound interest.

Every single doctor should have a Roth IRA (via backdoor) as a part of their investment portfolio, it is the easiest way to become a multi-millionaire within your lifetime.

Have you fully funded your Roth IRA for 2025 yet and start saving for the 2026 contribution? It is one of the first things I do every Jan!

When Aaron and Dat are not seeing patients, they are spending 3 days learning about credit card processing compliance @ the annual Elavon Meeting 😂

They got to meet with the president of Elavon Healthcare team to talk about the future of optometry! ✌️

✨ Inspirational Monday post for 2025!✨ This is my 401(k) snapshot over the last 8+ years. I have maxed my contributions each year (now up to $23,500 in 2025).

I finished optometry school in 2015 as a 👨🏻‍⚕️ broke new grad OD with a 📉 –$225,000 net worth thanks to quarter-million student loans. My first job had no retirement plan, so I moved on fast after a few months.

The next private practice FT gig offered a SIMPLE IRA (about $16,500 limit in 2025) which was NOT great 😤 because it blocked my backdoor Roth IRA contributions (tax-free growth; $7,000 limit in 2025). Eventually I landed a full-time role with a 401(k) match and have maxed it for 8 years while paying down student loans, saving for our 1st home, and sticking to a budget.

8-Year Period (2017–2025):

• 💵 Contributions (what I put in): $160,500 (estimate)

• 📊 Gains (via compounding interest): $307,354

• 🏦 Total Balance: $467,854

I kept it simple with a low-cost S&P 500 index fund like the Vanguard S&P 500 (VOO). Over about 8 years that averaged ↗️ ~12.4% per year, with the last 3+ years topping ↗️ ~22.13%.

Please know that I am NOT sharing this to brag. I want to show the power of compounding and why every owner or doctor should consider a low-cost 401(k) such as Human Interest or Ubiquity. It is an easy way to

• ✅ Maximize tax deductions ($23.5K) and startup tax credits ($16.5K)

• ✅ Reduce AOD+ staff turnover by investing in your team’s financial future

• ✅ Put yourself on track to retire a multimillionaire.

Start your retirement savings today, even if it is tiny, aim for 10%. Let time and consistency do the heavy lifting.
