Wonder what's really happening with corporate buyers and whether NHS practices still command premium prices? The data might surprise you. Luke Moore, Head of Dental Elite's practice brokerage team, joins us to unpack the revealing findings from their annual dental market report—a comprehensive analysis representing roughly 25% of all UK dental practice transactions. This insider's view of completed sales (not just valuations) delivers eye-opening insights for anyone considering buying or selling a practice. We dismantle the prevailing "urban myth" that corporates dominate today's acquisition landscape. The reality? Independent dentists purchasing their first, second or third practices remain the primary buyers, while the largest groups have pivoted toward fewer, larger acquisitions with specific strategic focus. The conversation explores why mixed practices command the highest multiples from independent buyers (averaging 3.87x FMT), while private practices are the "jewels in the crown" for corporate buyers (averaging 7.36x EBITDA). Luke shares fascinating details about regional valuation disparities, with practices in recruitment-challenged areas selling for significantly lower multiples than their urban counterparts. Perhaps most revealing is the emerging trend of sellers prioritising complete payment at completion over potentially higher valuations with deferred components—a shift Luke attributes partly to mixed post-sale experiences reported by principals who've previously sold to larger groups. Whether you're a practice owner contemplating your exit strategy, an associate exploring ownership opportunities, or simply interested in the business of dentistry, this data-rich conversation provides crucial context for navigating today's complex dental marketplace.

While time travel remains out of reach, education offers a powerful alternative—pulling future knowledge into your present reality. Having reflected deeply on my own financial journey, I've identified ten crucial money perspectives I wish I'd embraced earlier in life. These aren't just abstract theories but transformative mindset shifts that could dramatically accelerate your wealth creation. The first revelation might surprise you: the greatest investment risk isn't investing at all. We've normalized spending without hesitation while approaching investing with excessive caution—a backwards approach when you consider that spending guarantees loss while investing at least offers potential returns. Similarly, understanding that "market declines are temporary while advances are permanent" provides crucial context for weathering financial storms. When you zoom out from sensationalized headlines about "crashes," the consistent upward trajectory of quality assets becomes undeniable. Perhaps most liberating is recognizing money as a human invention—a social construct that allows us to question whether our financial beliefs truly serve us. This applies to how we view sales conversations (potential value exchanges rather than uncomfortable interactions), time-money relationships (building "money trees" for recurring income), and the misleading belief that hard work automatically equals financial success (strategy matters more than hours). By developing high-leverage skills like business management, coding, and sales, you can create disproportionate returns on your time investment. And remember: your circle largely determines your success, so intentionally seek diverse perspectives from those achieving what you aspire to create. Ready to transform your financial future? Start by questioning which of these money perspectives might be holding you back. Your future self will thank you.——————————————————————— Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

The path to financial freedom is simpler than you think, though it often goes against conventional advice. Books like Rich Dad, Poor Dad, The Psychology of Money, and many lesser-known gems all point to the same core idea: leverage. Whether through people, money, systems or content, wealthy individuals find ways to get more done with less effort. We explore MJ DeMarco’s concept of the sidewalk, slow lane and fast lane, showing why so many people stay stuck financially. We also dive into Robert Kiyosaki’s Cashflow Quadrant and practical tools from Who Not How and Traction to help you take real action. If you want to shift from working harder to building true wealth, this episode lays out the key principles that actually move the needle.——————————————————————— Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

The quest for the "highest valuation" might actually be costing you precious years of freedom. In this illuminating discussion, financial planners Luke Hurley and Anik Sharma reveal the critical distinction between maximizing practice value and achieving your personal financial independence. Through real-world examples and comprehensive cash flow modeling, they demonstrate how dentists can determine their actual "number" – the amount needed to fund their desired lifestyle without financial constraint. The conversation challenges conventional wisdom about retirement age and practice exit timing. Rather than clinging to arbitrary targets or industry benchmarks, our experts walk through how to reverse-engineer your financial needs, taking into account existing assets, pensions, and investment portfolios. This approach often reveals that many practice owners are already closer to financial freedom than they realize. Financial planning software vividly illustrates how even modest practice valuations, combined with accumulated wealth in pensions and investments, can provide sustainable income well beyond traditional retirement age. The discussion includes important considerations around sequence risk, tax optimization, and the psychological aspects of transitioning away from practice ownership. Perhaps most valuable is the exploration of what retirement actually means in today's world. Far from the outdated concept of "being put out to pasture," financial independence offers the freedom to choose how you spend your time – whether that's continuing clinical work on your terms, pursuing new business ventures, dedicating time to family and travel, or exploring entirely new passions like the former solicitor who became a flight instructor.

In this powerful episode, money mindset expert Tom Fortes-Mayer explores how deep-rooted thoughts and emotions influence wealth, success, and personal fulfilment.Tom introduces the idea of “dirty fuel” versus “clean fuel” when it comes to motivation.

True financial freedom comes from alignment, clarity, and a sense of internal abundance.He shares striking personal stories like how a childhood belief about a £300 wage subconsciously capped his earnings years later. These experiences reveal how unexamined beliefs can quietly limit our potential until we choose to shift them.One standout moment is Tom’s “umbrella miracle,” a story that brings together mindset, gratitude, and manifestation in a way that’s both magical and practical. Throughout the episode, you’ll find clear strategies to uncover and transform limiting money beliefs so you can welcome more wealth, time, and opportunity into your life.If you’re ready to rethink how you create success, this episode offers both inspiration and a practical path forward.——————————————————————— Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

What It Takes To Start A Dental Practice In 2025 with Dr Zain Remy

Dr. Amit Jilka's journey provides a masterclass in strategic dental business growth that any practice owner can learn from. Starting with a modest single-surgery practice generating £300,000 annually in 2012, Dr. Jilka has built a remarkable dental enterprise now spanning 18 chairs across multiple locations, with a team of 35 clinicians completing over 550 implants and 400 orthodontic cases yearly. The transformation wasn't accidental, but methodically engineered through three critical pillars: exceptional Treatment Coordinators, comprehensively trained associates, and outstanding practice managers. The revelation of properly implemented TCOs is perhaps most striking. Unlike the common misconception that TCOs are merely glorified receptionists, Dr. Jilka's TCOs conduct 30-45 minute appointments, performing scans, discussing financing, and comprehensive treatment options before patients even meet the dentist. This approach has dramatically increased both treatment plan acceptance rates (from 60% to 80% for implants) and overall treatment values. What's particularly fascinating is Dr. Jilka's counterintuitive approach to personal clinical time. By reducing his own clinical hours to just half a day weekly and dedicating several days to mentoring associates instead, he initially took a personal income hit – but saw practice profitability soar. This powerful demonstration of working ON rather than IN the business highlights the leverage gained through systematic associate training and development. The practice also employs distinct workflows for different treatment modalities, recognizing that implant and orthodontic patient journeys require different approaches to nurturing and conversion. Their structured follow-up protocol for high-value implant consultations exemplifies the attention to detail that drives their exceptional performance. Whether you're struggling with case acceptance, associate productivity, or finding time to strategically grow your practice, Dr. Jilka's proven systems offer a roadmap to greater profitability without sacrificing clinical excellence or work-life balance. Ready to transform your dental practice from surviving to thriving? The blueprint is right here.
