It was very uncommon for medical schools teach their medical students how to manage their money once they get some from their work as doctors in the future. Do our medical students ready and competence enough to manage their income? Can financial intelligence be taught and help them to be better doctors in the future? Why is so important for medical students to be financially competence? Does it relevance to medical students? Why i'm so concerned about this because I believe that by being financially competence, it promotes well-being of future medical doctors (this is another skill that we medical teachers have to look for). How does it promotes well-being of future doctors? The answer is very straight forward, everyone on the earth need money, thus, by managing your money intelligently you can minimise your money lost and you will maximize profits from your income. In other hand, if you are financially intelligence then you can let your money work for you and they generate extra income to your pocket. While you are treating patients your money generating income to your bank account. Does it sound interesting! I believe if doctors have enough money to support their family and themselves, they will treat patients full-heartedly without worrying about money. However, now it is not like that, it is another way around, perhap that is the reason why doctor are stressed, demotivated and not treating their patients well. May be one of the ways to overcome this problem is to teach our medical students about financial intelligence during their medical training. Hopefully with it we can produce better future doctors, not only they have good clinical skills but they are also know how to manage their money intelligently. Let's think about this together. If it is useful and feasible why don't we try it out and let see what is the students feedback about it.
