By grasping the proper order for financial decision-making, you can gain greater control, expand your choices, and enhance flexibility as you navigate your dental career. 

Comprehending your employment contract and the benefits your employer provides is essential for achieving financial success. This knowledge will not only shape your earnings but also influence your savings and your protection against uncontrollable risks. Often, workplace benefits are your best defense against these uncertainties. 

While student loans and debt may loom large and daunting, understanding your options and the implications of each choice can empower you to face the future with confidence. Clarity in this area will lead you to make informed decisions about your financial journey.
