Good Dads Podcast

We sit down with Josh the Dad to talk about the how his parents influenced his driving philosophies when it came to being a dad to his kids.

As we know, owning a car comes with maintenance. This can be a good lesson of responsibility when it comes to the pride and ownership of a car.

How do we choose who is going to get a car? What age? How do we split time with kids and our cars?

With graduation, going away to college, or just a different summer schedule, what will the car situation in your house look like? We discuss some of our first cars and how we were taught by our parents.

For kids, thinking about retirement (ROTH IRAs and 401k) seems so far in the future, but planning now at a young age can make a big difference for your long term portfolio. 

It's so easy to fall into debt (no matter how old you are). Michael talks with us about making mistakes and trying to prevent debt.

Michael Vaughn (from Pinnacle Financial Advisors) talks about the importance of teaching our kids to save. Also something you can try, that he does with his kids... "Dad 401k."

To make sure we don't cause further damage to our relationships... it's ok to take a "time out," and even more important to call a "time in."

Understanding and recognizing "danger signs" in a relationship can help you as a dad and make you a better communicator.

If your's in a relationship, looking for a relationship, or wanting to understand relationships, Dr. Baker has a quiz/assessment... "what do I want and need out of a relationship." Sounds like an easy question... but can YOU answer that?
