A Wealth and Investment Primer for Plastic Surgeons: The Two Pillar Framework.

Sound investing, analogous to maintaining good health, is a long-term process that must be continuously nurtured and strengthened. This article will describe how adhering to a simple, two-pillar framework can help plastic surgeons secure superior wealth generation. Our first pillar is anchored on developing a consistent savings plan geared to circumstances and lifestyle goals at each career stage. Each plastic surgeon's path is unique, but there are common drivers based on substantial upfront educational costs and high life-time wage incomes. The second pillar is focused on generating strong after-tax investment performance over many market cycles. This primer presents pragmatic steps plastic surgeons should consider for financial planning, approaching capital markets, and selecting advisors. Strong financial planning, combined with a more active and transparent investing approach, can deliver superior financial outcomes. This is an introduction only focused on investing in public securities versus illiquid assets (an asset that cannot be converted to cash in a short period, usually defined as less than 7 days, like real estate or art collectibles, for instance) and is not meant to be exhaustive or constitute investment advice regarding any asset class, strategy, or examples cited herein.

STOVIA DAN KEHIDUPAN SOSIAL MASYARAKAT DI HINDIA BELANDA

Today education has become a title that is widely used by the wider community to achieve prosperity and happiness in life. Therefore, it is from education that the mindset of a community can be developed to take action for the long term. Education and the education system in Indonesia itself has in fact existed long before the colonialism and imperialism era occurred. At first, education in Indonesia started from a simple one, then developed in religious education until then it was influenced by western education brought by the colonizers. Entering the 20th century in the Dutch East Indies also marked the beginning of an ethical era that included three areas of progress, one of which was education as a form of gratitude and moral responsibility for the treatment of the Dutch Government during the exploitation of the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia). The purpose of this study is to reconstruct the history of medical schools in Indonesia and their impact on society. This research method uses the historical method with a descriptive qualitative approach which is based on the available data. The results showed that the establishment of the STOVIA Medical School was initiated by the presence of several types of infectious diseases in Indonesia which made the Dutch government overwhelmed in dealing with them. Developments in the field of education during the colonial era have created literacy groups that are considered by the community as Priyayi. At that time, STOVIA had a policy of denying access to higher education for women. Educational opportunities were open, but the Dutch colonial government imposed education costs on women. This is in stark contrast to men who do not pay tuition. Various policies to revitalize the curriculum color the journey of this medical school. STOVIA alumni are well-known as the founders of the momentum for national awakening who have a very high concern for the community. Not a few STOVIA alumni have opened a practice without asking for a penny in return for small communities in need.

Education is a key aspect in improving Human Resources (HR). Education starts at an early age so that future generations are ready to face increasingly fierce and highly competitive competition. Liya Kindergarten (TK) is one of the educational institutions that participates in providing educational services and focuses on early childhood education. The age range of Kindergarten students is expected to be able to meet the competency criteria for entering Elementary School (SD). In providing information services to the public regarding Kindergarten Liya, it is often difficult to provide up-to-date information to the public regarding the acceptance of new students. This information is in the form of information on school activities, registration information, curriculum information and information on education costs. From these problems, the creation of a new student admissions design for schools is expected to be a solution to the problem to assist the process of registering new students. The website can provide services quickly and accurately with simple steps in registering new students. The method used in this community service is interviews with related users at the location of the community service, namely Liya Kindergarten for a certain period of time and at the end of the community service there is training on using the website to build new student acceptance for users. With this website, it is hoped that it can improve the quality of services at Kindergarten Liya to be able to provide accurate information for people who need it. In addition, it can be a means of promotion related to Kindergarten Liya and on the other hand it can increase the school's income.

Liquidity constraints in free post-secondary education: Evidence from Colombia

This paper provides evidence of the importance of liquidity constraints in a tuition-free post-secondary education setting in Colombia. We exploit exogenous variation in the relative cost of tuition-free vocational education from a nationwide cash transfer program. We show that eligibility for a USD 136 grant every other month increases enrollment by up to 12 percentage points. We also show that men with larger returns to education are more affected by the availability of grants, which is consistent with the presence of liquidity constraints. However, we do not find the same for women. This paper highlights the importance of non-tuition costs and discusses whether individuals under-invest in their human capital when free education is available.

Exploring the Role of Waqf Instrument in Supporting Educational Development: A Qualitative Content Analysis

The cost of education has increased, while the government can no longer spend money on education development. In some Muslim countries, education access and opportunities for Muslims remain prolonged. Though Islam prioritizes education advancement for its followers, education attainment among Muslims is disappointing. Scholars and researchers have proposed using the waqf concept for education development in light of potential future scenarios in the current education sector to ensure more affordable and sustainable education for Muslims. Therefore, this study explores the roles of waqf in educational development by applying qualitative content analysis using past studies as references. The study discovered that waqf plays a significant role in supporting three costs of educational development: institution establishment cost, institution operational cost, and institution admission and enrollment cost. These three costs have been proven to be solved with the waqf instrument. It can be applied to all scales of educational institutions. With that, the study contributes to minimizing the gaps in the previous literature and introduces organized roles of waqf in educational development for authorities and relevant parties’ understanding.

Financial hardship differences by LGBTQ+ status among assigned female at birth adolescent and young adult cancer survivors: a mixed methods analysis.

Adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors are at an elevated risk of financial hardship. However, financial hardship among LGBTQ+ AYAs has not been widely explored. Thus, we used qualitative and quantitative survey data from the Horizon Study cohort to assess financial hardship of AYAs by LGBTQ+ status. Multivariable logit models, predicted probabilities, average marginal effects or differences in predicted probabilities (AME) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used to assess the association of LGBTQ+ status and two components of financial hardship: material and psychological. Qualitative content analysis of an open-ended survey question about financial sacrifices was used to describe the third component of financial hardship, behavioral. Among 1,635 participants, 4.3% self-identified as LGBTQ+. Multivariable logit models controlling for demographic factors revealed that LGBTQ+ AYAs had an 18-percentage point higher probability of experiencing material financial hardship (95%CI 6-30%) and a 14-percentage point higher probability of experiencing psychological financial hardship (95%CI 2-26%) than non-LGBTQ+ AYAs. Controlling for economic factors attenuated the association of LGBTQ+ status with psychological financial hardship (AME = 11%; 95%CI -1-23%), while the material financial hardship association remained statistically significant (AME = 14%; 95%CI 3-25%). In the qualitative analysis, LGBTQ+ AYAs frequently reported educational changes and costs (e.g., quitting school), unpaid bills and debt (e.g., medical debt, taking on credit card debt), as well as changes in housing and poor housing conditions (e.g., moving into less expensive house). LGBTQ + targeted and tailored interventions are needed to move toward equity for LGBTQ+ AYAs-an overlooked minority population.

The Utilization of Deep Learning in Forecasting The Inflation Rate of Education Costs in Malang

The public needs information about the predicted inflation rate for education costs to manage family finances and prepare education funds. This information is also beneficial for the government to create policies in education. Malang is one of the educational cities in Indonesia, but research on the prediction of the inflation rate of education costs in the city still needs to be made available. Besides, the researchers have yet to find previous studies on forecasting that used the specific inflation rate for education costs in Indonesia by applying the Deep Learning method, especially those using the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for the Education Expenditure Group. This research aims to develop a model to forecast the inflation of education costs in Malang using the Deep Learning Method. This research was conducted using Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for the Education Expenditure Group in Malang during 1996-2021s taken from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) Malang. The forecasting method used is the Long and Short-Term Memory (LSTM) method, which is a development of the Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). The results showed that it achieved the best accuracy by a model with one hidden layer and four hidden nodes, namely MAPE=2.8765% and RMSE=8.37.
