Career Growth, Mentorship, and Leadership-Every Day I'm Hustling: Side Gigs

Video Transcription

Video Summary

A physician discusses the monotony of clinical work and the need for side gigs to diversify life, combat burnout, and supplement income, especially given VA pay limitations. He outlines various medical side gigs: locum tenens, consulting, surveys, expert legal testimony, promotional speaking, utilization and peer review, clinical research, startups, and ambulatory surgery centers. Non-medical options like real estate and coaching are noted but less lucrative. He advises checking employer side gig policies due to restrictions and non-compete clauses. Side gigs offer intellectual stimulation, community engagement, financial benefit, and skill maintenance. Setting up an S-corp may be needed for complexity and tax benefits.
