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.
