20/20 Money Episode #247 – Why It’s Wrong To Think You Should Get a Discount to Buy Into the Practice You’ve Worked in as an Associate

July 31, 2023

Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! On today’s episode I share some insights and experience as to why there can be a disconnect between owner and associate when it comes to establishing a buy-in price on a practice in which the associate has been working. This misalignment of value happens all-too-often and I’m hoping that this conversation can give you insights as to what both parties are thinking compared to what is correct and fair.
