Mark is the author of the Finance and Fatherhood Newsletter. He's also a single dad of three teenagers who has a full-time job in Accounting and three (3) profitable side-businesses—all while studying for the Life Insurance & Series 6 exams to be a financial advisor.

In this episode, we discuss Mark's best days on Twitter. Recently, he says the controversial and chaotic revolt of "Redditors" against a prominent Wall Street hedge fund was one of those best days. It was modern-day class warfare, so-to-speak, for a digital world.

The reason for the revolt, Mark says, is that people have been fed up with "the establishment." They're sick and tired of sizable wealth transfers taking place in our country that leave many people out. As long as hedge funds get rich and people get bailed out when needed, he imagines this sort of backlash will continue.

We also discuss how the year 2020 has impacted Mark’s life. Being an introvert and having three kids at home 24/7 has been the most mentally challenging time for him. Interestingly, he always thought he’d want to spend infinite amounts of time with his teenagers, but later realized that more time doesn’t always mean better time. He says it’s much more important to have quality time with them and set an example rather than worry about quantity of time.

This was a fun and enjoyable discussion for the same reasons I enjoy Mark's writing. He's easy-going, relatable and insightful. Neither of us could believe two hours went by so fast. Hope you enjoy, and learn something from this discussion. I sure did!
