“Remember the things that we’ve discussed as the majority of people are broke. And just because your friends are showing off the ‘stuff’ things they buy doesn’t mean they can actually afford them.

Once you realize that everybody in the world is after your money, the quicker you know how the ‘money game’ is really being played.

Just don’t get played yourself.”

Jeff Anzalone is a periodontist who blogs at Debt Free Dr.

He shares his story and discusses his KevinMD article, “How not to be a broke doctor (5 ways).”
