Newsletter Archive

Every issue. Newest to oldest. No BS!

This is the full archive of the Stock Savvy Dad newsletter.

Every Tuesday morning, I send one email to a growing community of parents and investors who are building wealth intentionally and thinking differently about money.

Some issues are about investing stock research, portfolio strategy, and how to think when the market gets loud.

Others are about the real moments that happen when you’re raising a family and trying to build something at the same time.

Some are about the bigger picture: generational wealth, financial literacy, and what it means to build something lasting when the system wasn’t designed to make that easy.

The articles are written like a real conversation. Not a blog post. Not a pitch. Just an honest take on money, wealth, and whatever you’re trying to build.

Browse through. Find one that speaks to where you are right now.

If you haven’t subscribed yet, join below. New issues land every Tuesday morning.

  • Why my daughters don’t get paid to clean their rooms.

    Originally published in the Stock Savvy Dad newsletter on July 7, 2026 My daughters collect cans sometimes. Not because I ask them to. They’ll notice a few cans around the house, gather them up, separate them from the regular recycling, and ask if we can take a trip to the store to cash them in.…

  • Being right means nothing if you never act on it

    Originally published in the Stock Savvy Dad newsletter on June 30, 2026. In my early 20s I told my mother to buy Apple and Netflix stock. I was studying business and finance at the time. I remember the conversations in college before the iPhone came out, people asking what if Apple turned the iPod into…

  • Not every stock is supposed to do the same job

    Originally published in the Stock Savvy Dad newsletter on June 23, 2026 Think about how you organize your home. Utensils go with utensils. Sneakers go with sneakers. When something is out of place, it creates confusion. You open a drawer looking for a fork and find a sock instead. You might catch yourself thinking, okay,…

  • This Juneteenth, I’m not starting from scratch

    Originally published in the Stock Savvy Dad newsletter on June19, 2026. Today is Juneteenth. A day about freedom finally being recognized after far too long. But freedom on paper and freedom in practice are two different things. Real freedom, the kind that compounds and gets passed down, takes generations of intentional effort to build. Not…

  • Financial freedom shouldn’t mean financial misery

    Originally published in the Stock Savvy Dad newsletter on June 9, 2026 I’m writing this from a coffee shop. The F.I.R.E. movement, which stands for Financial Independence Retire Early, would have something to say about that. The philosophy is built around aggressive saving and cutting expenses to the bone so you can retire decades earlier…

  • The Power of Doing Nothing

    Originally published in the Stock Savvy Dad newsletter on June 2, 2026. My daughters argue sometimes. Nothing serious, just the normal back and forth between two sisters figuring out how to share the same space. One of them will come find me or my wife. “Daddy, she’s bothering me.” “I’m the only one cleaning up.”…

  • Capital leaves clues. Here’s where I’m looking.

    Originally published in the Stock Savvy Dad newsletter on May 26, 2026. One thing I’ve learned as an investor is that capital leaves clues. Government officials, hedge funds, CEOs. They’re not always right. But when multiple people with access, influence, and long-term visibility keep showing up in the same sectors, I pay attention. Then I…

  • Some friendships aren’t meant to last forever. Neither are some stocks.

    Originally published in the Stock Savvy Dad newsletter on May 12, 2026. Think about the friends you had as a kid that you no longer speak to. Some drifted away naturally. You moved, life got busy, and you lost touch. No drama. The friendship just ran its course. Others you had to walk away from…

  • The questions I ask before buying any stock

    Originally published in the Stock Savvy Dad newsletter on May 5, 2026. In the spring of 2023 a stock that had been on my watchlist, CrowdStrike, took a fairly significant dip. Most people saw a falling stock and moved on. I saw a potential opportunity.

  • The best investing decision I made wasn’t for me.

    Originally published in the Stock Savvy Dad newsletter on April 28, 2026. Sometimes the best financial advice comes from an unexpected conversation. Back in 2023 I was talking with a financial influencer I respected and he said something that stuck with me. Open custodial accounts for your kids. I did a little research that same…
