About Doug,
How a healthcare provider became an entrepreneur.
27 years ago my dad suffered a stroke, was hospitalized for a long time, and visits to the hospital defined my future of becoming a doctor.
22 years ago, I had no income, I was dependant on my parents and I wanted an mp3 player, my mother served as a bank, I “paid” her in installments with my allowance.
18 years ago I used to bought merchandise in physical stores and sold them online because the allowance I had was not enough.
15 years ago my family had financial problems, I was in college far from my hometown and I got scholarships to pay for my medical studies.
4 years ago I had to start from scratch in a new country, where the whole system was completely different from the one I knew, so I adapted myself, and learned from it.
2 years ago I met the credit card rewards game, investments and the FIRE movement, this became a passion.
Nowadays I read books, listen to podcasts, exercise and I am engaged with self-improvement, just as I have been doing medicine, it is time to share my knowledge and help others.
