Meh, my wife is a doc and had a good amount of student loans. She just put in the max to repay per month and its all repaid and gravy.

Your salary should let you live a comfortable living net of loans. Not going to be filthy rich or baller like you expected for the first 5-10 years, but it will be comfortable.

There's worse problems out there.

invest what you are willing to lose without flinching.

Yes, this is good time to invest in crypto right now.

I appreciate the input. I'm willing to lose 10k without thinking much since future salary should covert that without much strain. And given how much everything is increasing, maybe investing then withdrawing once sustained losses are observed is a safe bet (it'll be pretty difficult to lose all 10k without retaining even a fraction after all)

I think your best bet to get out of debt is to invest your time in excelling in what you are already good at - medicine.
If you invest in Altcoins you might get lucky - but this feels similar to gambling it up in a casino.
If you want to make good investment decisions you have to spend a lot of time studying the coins and the market.
This time is almost certainly better spent investing in yourself.

I agree 100% medicine should be the primary focus. Once the next year begins, I don't plan to give much attention to it other than checking up on existing investments.
