USA TODAY BESTSELLER Hey Dad... is the book I wish I had when I stepped into adulthood--and the one I wrote after years of getting calls from my kids that started with:
- "Hey Dad...how do I do my taxes?"
- "Hey Dad...what's a deductible?"
- "Hey Dad...why is my car smoking?"
Adulthood doesn't come with a manual, but this comes close.
I didn't write this just as a dad of four--I wrote it as someone who's learned (often the hard way) how to manage money, land jobs, rent apartments, fix things, and stay sane in the process. I also talked to 30+ experts--financial advisors, career coaches, entrepreneurs, even a NASCAR driver and Navy SEAL--to help bring their best real-world advice to the table.
This book is packed with practical tools, funny stories, and honest lessons about:
- Getting your first job (and keeping it)
- Budgeting like a pro--even if you hate spreadsheets
- Finding your first place without getting ripped off
- Navigating credit, cars, and career moves
- Building independence with confidence (and maybe fewer 2 a.m. Google searches)
Hey Dad... isn't just a guide. It's a conversation. A pep talk. A toolkit. And a reminder that you don't have to figure it all out on your own.
Start with a question.
Stay curious.
Learn from your mistakes.
And when in doubt--remember that asking for help is a strength, not a weakness.
