Intro
Today, I talk to Stafford Hamilton who is the CEO of Credabl, Australia’s leading provider of medical and dental finance solutions. Stafford’s 20-year career in financial services and IT has led him to co-found the company in 2016. He remains passionate about helping medical and dental professionals achieve their personal and business ambitions through specialised lending.
In this interview we talk about the financial changes, purchases, and challenges that a dentist faces during the first five years of his or her career. We discuss how learning the basics of personal finance is the first step to building wealth and helps you make better fiscal decisions.
