This week, Scott Leune gets tactical: what should you actually be doing in dentistry, right now, at your specific age, to make that philosophy real?\n\nIn Part 2 of this series, Scott walks through the exact practice models that align with the semi-retire-twice framework, breaking down what each decade of a dental career should look like and why.\n\nScott breaks down:\nWhy age 26 to 35 should be about high income and low costs, and why becoming a practice owner as fast as possible is the single biggest lever for building wealth in this decade\nWhy the highest-earning associates usually make even better-earning owners, and why staying an associate too long can quietly cap your ceiling\nTwo specific ways to structure a practice so you can drop to part-time in your late 30s and 40s without losing income, including dropping insurance plans for fee-for-service and building a \"big case only\" schedule\nHow replacing yourself with associates the right way can get your personal overhead down to 10%, letting you take home the majority of what you produce on just one clinical day a week\nWhy age 46 to 65 can become your highest-earning, highest-impact decade, and how adding practices during this phase builds both income and a business worth selling\nWhat it actually looks like to reach 65 without burnout, with a healthy family, a nest egg, and a new chapter built around passion instead of retirement\n\nIf you've ever wondered whether you're in the right decade doing the right things, or whether you need a complete reset, this episode gives you the specific dental practice models to actually make the shift.\n\n🎧 Listen and subscribe: https://dentalceopodcast.com","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/SypKbfMRZhvaxFvr7L3tGgKV14N37gxnYirG73tyocY/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS82NGE0/MTdlYTYyNmUwNjhi/ZWMyY2FhNzZmYjA3/Yjk0Mi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
