The 10-year rule for buying a new vehicle

When trying to decide whether to buy a used car or a new one, it’s typically financially wiser to buy used. But if you want to buy new, you should plan to drive the car for 10 years or more.

Better yet – do not buy a new vehicle.

The 20/4/10 rule for buying a vehicle

If you have to borrow when buying a car, to avoid spending more than you can afford you should put down at least 20%, keep the loan limited to no more than four years (to avoid interest), and spend no more than 10% of your gross income on transportation costs (which includes the car payment, parking, gas, and insurance).

Better yet – do not buy a new vehicle.

Dow34,269.16-473.66-1.36%

Most all investors and physician executives are aware of the concept of financial beta.

BETA: A Systemic risk measurement benchmark correlating with a change in a specific index.

EXAMPLE: The measure of a stock’s volatility relative to the market, where a beta lower than 1 means the stock is less sensitive than the market as a whole; higher than 1 indicates the stock is more volatile than the market. The healthcare industry is considered to be increasingly volatile and hence possess a higher beta.

QUERY: But, what about more granular concepts like Levered Beta vs Un-levered Beta?
