Hey Dad...: Everything You Should've Learned about Life (But Didn't).

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.
