Exploring the value of character and reputation as the true legacy to pass on, using the example of Harry Truman.
"Harry Truman was not a good businessman. The clothing shop he opened with a friend was a disaster—and he was paying off the debts through his senate career and into his presidency. Most of his investments were flops. He had to sell off chunks of his mother’s farm when they couldn’t pay the mortgage. After he left office, the only safety net he had was his army pension."
Yet as Ryan describes in today's Daily Dad podcast, Truman was still able to leave his children a special legacy, something worth more than a large cash inheritance.
