Ndubuisi 'Andy' Egwim gives practical investment advice for doctors, recommending broad-based, well-diversified index funds (e.g., global funds or the S&P 500) as a suitable default for busy physicians while noting he is not endorsing specific products. He contrasts that with alternative mixes (example: 50% index funds, 20% individual stocks/bonds) and emphasizes that investors should determine their own risk tolerance/risk appetite (a psychological trait). He also frames the guidance as actionable within a short timeframe ("before the end of these seven days") to help craft a personal investment plan.

And for some people, it's going to be broad based, well diversified index funds, which I think is the best for most doctors giving your busy careers on so many things you're dealing with broad based, well diversified index for whether it's a global Foreign S&P 500. This is not I'm not sort of recommending any specific products. Okay. Now for some other person, they might decide, you know what I'm going to do 50, 50, I'm going to do 50% in index fund. I'm going to do 20% in individual stock do bonds. Okay. So this is a personal reflection. Hopefully before the end of these seven days, should be able to craft your own investment plan or at least have an idea what your risk appetite is. So this is risk tolerance or risk appetite. It's psychological.
