Today's episode is inspirED by Bryan Reeve's podcast "Men This Way" and an episode dropped a couple days ago, "When Men Don't Grow Up, Everyone Suffers".  Evan reminds fathers and men in general to wake up.  Look in the mirror with a critical financial eye into the depths of your monetary reality.  This is true for men of all ages, but especially those approaching the big 4-0 as late-in-life savers. Add up your income, subtract your expenses and what do you see? Or perhaps more importantly, what do you not see.  Want to be on the show to share your money story?  Email us:  [email protected]

Evan begins with a ramble about his very first REAL Case Study coming up in the month of July from a listener in Vermont!  But today, we go back in time once again to explore the mindset of a young man coming into his own as an adult and how he fell into societal pressures to live above his means.  Who would that be?  That's right. Yours truly. And stay tuned for his present day “Shiny New Object” challenge. We all have them, it’s how we react to them (or not) that determine if we make it or not as late-in-life wealth warriors.

Evan tells a story of how at age 24 was influenced as a young man by watching the film "The Accidental Tourist".  Although he didn't know it to some extent for many years, the film helped him realize that it would be not only a long journey to find career success in life, but it would be equally as "accidental" to find monetary success as he transitioned from an 80's influenced "material world" to one of "security", post 9/11 at the turn of the century.  Want to be on the show to share your financial journey?

Evan begins today's episode by remembering his Grandfather and the legacy he left for his family.  Growing up during the Great Depression and then serving in the Armed Forces during the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, "Grandpa Paul" leveraged the financial landscape in which we're all destined to be in...and maximized it's potential in the way that all of us need to do in today's environment as well.  Evan moves on to part 2 of the episode and lends a critical eye on his very own numbers today, exactly one year after producing a detailed account of his savings and investments from May 31, 2020.  Want to be on the show to share your money story?  Write us:  [email protected]

Evan begins today with a "coffee talk" ramble about his week.  How did your week go?  Are you continuing to improve your financial situation with each of the approximate 22 weeks so far this year?  Or, are you continuing to live in fear of what others have done with their life and money.  Once he gets enough caffeine in his system, it's time to put on his shoes and get in his 10,000 steps today.  Fitness and Finance do what?  They go together!  Join Evan as he talks about his thoughts about money as a young boy and how it has changed and been influenced by listening to younger people.  Want to be on the show to share your financial journey?  Email us:  [email protected]
