Episode notes
Teach Financial Responsibility with Failures
- Give your adopted daughter enough money to fail without catastrophic consequences.
- Use give, save, and spend buckets as teaching tools and monitor her progress like a coach watches a player.
Protect Finances During Divorce
- In divorce, protect your finances by moving money to accounts your ex can't access.
- Avoid keeping a house that's unaffordable; rent instead to preserve cash flow.
Avoid Fake Side Hustle Courses

- Pursue side hustles with real income potential like tutoring or pet grooming instead.
