Reasonably Happy with Paul Ollinger

From the Trailer Park to the Comedy Big Time with Rocky Dale Davis - Ep 131


Listen Later

Comedian Rocky Dale Davis grew in a trailer park in Brookwood, Alabama. His single mom worked hard to keep him fed and on the straight-and-narrow. After eight years doing comedy, Rocky is headlining all over the country and experiencing his first taste of financial success. So it’s that much more fun to watch me cringe as Rocky tells me that he tries to get rid of money as soon as it comes in and that he doesn’t have health insurance. Rocky has appeared on This week at the Comedy Cellar and Kevin Hart Presents on Comedy Central, NBC  In addition to all this, Rocky and I discuss: 

  • His "abusive, White trash dad"
  • Why he went to Mexico to get his teeth fixed.
  • Getting into fights at church
  •  Get you some more Rock here and here.

    •  About Crazy Money: Unlike traditional personal finance shows like Dave Ramsey or Suze Orman, Crazy Money is not about how to make a million bucks, how to beat the market, or how to save money by switching cable providers. It is about deciding what role we want money to play in our lives and how we can use it to be our best selves. Topics covered include: Philosophy, Happiness, Contentment, Meaning, dreams, purpose, Success, Rat Race, Society, mental health, Buddhism, Stoicism, the hedonic treadmill, morality, Mid-Life Crisis, Business, Work, Careers, Authors, Books, Consumerism, Values, capitalism, economics, investing, saving, spending, personal finance, charity, philanthropy, altruism, affluence, wealth, wealth management, culture, society. Status. Iranian immigrant, Persian immigrant. Iran. Immigration Edited by Mike Carano Did you already rate and review Crazy Money? Yes? Okay, you can go now...
