#836 The "Hey Dad" Moments: What We Wish We’d Taught Our Kids About Business

I have been thinking a lot about my Dad lately and what he taught me in business and life. This is because I just had a new grandson about a month ago and he was named for my dad! This week, I talk with Robert J. Finlay who is a Wall Street Journal bestselling author, seasoned entrepreneur, renowned speaker, and father of four. He is a successful entrepreneur and commercial real estate investor. He has built and sold four companies. He brings strategic insights and inspires the next generation of leaders with his commitment to mentorship, education, and the integration of technology. Rob has a new book called " Hey Dad…Everything You Should’ve Learned About Life (But Didn’t)". We talked about: Should You Really Start a Business? Is It Smarter to Learn on Someone Else’s Dime First? Do You Have a Great Idea—or a Great Execution Plan? Who’s Your Mentor? 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). Become a supporter of this podcast: . Listen to all the episodes of The Small Business Radio Show at
