    Are Parents Making Their Kids Too Soft? | The Winegards Ep. 9

    Should your marriage come before your children? Should you let your kids fail? And how do you give your children a great life without raising them to feel entitled? With their daughter Sophia due any day, Eric and Alexis Winegard sit down to tackle some of the parenting questions they’re about to face firsthand. In this episode of The Winegards Podcast, they debate marriage vs. children, failure, discipline, praise, privacy, family boundaries, inheritance, money, competitive sports, and how much parents should actually do for their kids. They get into: • Should your marriage come before your children? • Why failure may be one of the best things for a child • Can too much praise make kids less resilient? • How much privacy should teenagers have? • Should kids automatically respect adults? • Where should family loyalty end? • Should grandparents have a say in parenting? • Is hiring friends and family a mistake? • Do parents owe their children an inheritance? • How do you give kids opportunities without creating entitlement? • Why work ethic may matter more than achievement Eric and Alexis also share how their own childhood experiences are shaping the parents they want to become, and why some of their opinions have already changed as Sophia's arrival gets closer. They don't have all the answers yet. In a few weeks, they're going to start finding out for themselves. What do you think: Should the marriage come first, or should the kids?

    Is $500K a Year Actually Wealthy? | The Winegards Ep. 8

    What does it actually mean to be wealthy? In this episode of The Winegards Podcast, Eric and Alexis revisit a viral conversation that sparked plenty of debate online: Is making $300K–$500K a year really considered wealthy? Eric explains why he believes a high income alone doesn't necessarily equal wealth, and why financial freedom, assets, security, and the ability to take care of your family matter more than the number on your paycheck. As they prepare to welcome their daughter, the conversation expands into how their definition of success is changing, the freedom they've worked to create for their family, and why building a business together has given them opportunities they didn't always have. They also get into: • The difference between income and actual wealth • Why financial security matters even when life is going well • Preparing financially for parenthood • Why delayed gratification is so powerful • The problem with a society built around instant gratification • Whether AI and ChatGPT are making people too reliant on technology • Building a company that doesn't depend entirely on its founders • Why smart people ask questions instead of pretending to know everything • Eric's first trip to the Hamptons, and his very different reaction to New York City From money and business to pregnancy, family, AI, and personal growth, this episode is an honest look at how Eric and Alexis are thinking about the next chapter of their lives. What does being "wealthy" mean to you? Let us know in the comments.
