    Gold, Silver and the Lessons Your Kids Will Remember | David Morgan

    Send us a text #077. In this episode, Justin sits down with David Morgan, author of The Silver Manifesto, publisher of The Morgan Report, and creator of the documentary Silver Sunrise, for a wide-ranging conversation on money, family, and legacy. David explains why we are living through the late stages of a debt-based, fiat monetary system—and why inflation is not an accident, but a built-in feature of the system. He breaks down the critical difference between currency and real money, and why families—not institutions—bear the greatest risk when currencies lose purchasing power. The conversation dives deep into why gold and silver have served as stores of value for thousands of years, how they function differently within a family’s asset base, and why silver plays a uniquely important role in the modern, energy- and technology-driven world. David also shares practical guidance on how families can think about saving with hard assets, portfolio balance, and safe storage—without panic or complexity. A major focus of the episode is financial education for kids. David and Justin discuss how parents can teach children to think independently about money, avoid debt-driven consumer habits, and understand concepts like inflation, purchasing power, and real assets through simple, tangible experiences—like holding silver or learning the history of money. The episode closes with reflections on legacy, freedom, and resilience. David shares personal lessons from decades in the markets, the inspiration behind Silver Sunrise, and why true wealth goes beyond money to include health, wisdom, and personal freedom. This is a conversation for parents who want to: Protect their family’s purchasing powerRaise financially resilient kidsUnderstand why gold and silver matter right nowLearn how to think clearly about money in an uncertain systemShow notes and more at: https://moneydadpodcast.com/session077 Support the show

    Flint, Not Fire: Raising Kids with Connection Before Correction | Mike McCarthy

    Send us a text #076.  What does it really mean to build generational wealth — and how do you pass it on without losing your kids in the process?  In this episode, I sit down with Mike McCarthy — serial entrepreneur, co-founder of GoBundance, former leader in the growth of Keller Williams, and author of The Miracle Morning for Parents and Families. Mike has helped scale businesses doing billions in sales, but what sets him apart is how intentionally he applies leadership, discipline, and values inside his own home. At the heart of this conversation is a powerful idea: give kids the flint, not the fire.  Instead of simply handing down money or opportunity, Mike explains why parents must focus on preparing the heir — teaching responsibility, stewardship, and self-mastery — long before wealth ever changes hands. We also explore one of the most important parenting principles you’ll hear: connection before correction.  Especially with adolescents, Mike shares why maintaining trust, presence, and relationship is the foundation that makes guidance, discipline, and financial lessons actually stick. This episode is filled with practical frameworks parents can implement immediately, including: How to teach financial responsibility through skin in the game, not handoutsWhy you need to prioritize connection before correctionWhy preparing heirs matters more than preparing estatesA weekly family meeting that becomes the operating system for your homeA simple daily routine — CHARMS — to help kids build discipline, confidence, and self-masteryHow to raise money-smart kids without entitlement, control, or burnout This is a conversation for parents, entrepreneurs, and leaders who want their success to strengthen their family — not come at its expense. If you’re focused on raising grounded, capable kids and building a legacy that goes far beyond money, this episode with Mike McCarthy is a must-listen.
