Most financial plans don’t fail because of markets—they fail because of unplanned life events. In this episode of the Smarter Vet Financial Podcast, CJ Burnett and Tom Seeko explain why risk is the silent plan killer for veterinarians and practice owners. They break down the real-world risks that can derail a plan, including disability, lawsuits, outdated legal documents, insurance gaps, and business-owner exposure.

This conversation reframes risk management as resilience planning and challenges listeners to decide who they want absorbing the risk when life happens.
