Ep.66 In this episode of Nurses With Voices, Dr. Lendra sits down with Grace Mei-Yen Foo , a nurse of nearly 40 years turned financial strategist—to confront the silent crisis facing nurses: financial fragility.
The conversation highlights the growing crisis of medical debt, the need for accessible financial planning, and the potential for generational wealth through informed financial decisions. Together, they uncover:
The hidden cost of traditional retirement plans (and what to use instead)
How to leverage living benefits in life insurance to avoid medical bankruptcy
Why most nurses insure their phones, but not their income
What the Rockefellers can teach us about legacy wealth—and how everyday nurses can follow suit
A real-life example of how Grace is funding her granddaughter’s college tax-free
Whether you’re feeling stuck in the paycheck-to-paycheck grind or looking for smarter ways to grow your money, this episode is your wake-up call.
