Wisdom From the Backseat: The Day My 11-Year-Old Reminded Me What Really Matters
About six months ago, I was driving with my 11-year-old son, talking through some opportunities I’m considering. I asked for his thoughts. Without hesitation he said: “Money is a great servant but a horrible master.” From the backseat, Eleven years old. And he meant it. It stopped me, not because the phrase was new, but because he understood it. I told him he was right. Then I shared something I rarely talk about: My company quietly sponsors veterans for mental-health treatment. No spotlight. No posts. Just the mission. We talked about impact, about doing meaningful work, and about how money can support the mission—but should never be the mission. And it reminded me of something every pilot knows: Your purpose is your heading. Your values are your instruments. You don’t have to wait to live that out. You lead with your values—right now. Even in the car. Even at 11 years old. Share your why with the people you love. Money is the tool. Mission is the goal. Supporting service members has always been my North Star.

Man, with what we make… I should be able to afford a whole lot more than I do
A few months ago, I was sitting in a crew room listening to two pilots talk about bases, upgrades, and pay bumps. Nothing unusual. But then one of them said: “Man, with what we make… I should be able to afford a whole lot more than I do.” That line stuck with me. Because honestly… I'd had the same thought before. Have you ever looked at your pay scale, your base, your schedule, and quietly wondered: Am I actually building wealth the way I SHOULD be at this stage of my career? If you’ve ever had that question — so did I. And I started noticing something interesting: Two pilots with the same paycheck can have completely different levels of affordability, savings, and long-term stability… depending on seat, base, and timing. When I started comparing real data across FO → Captain paths…The differences were honestly surprising. So I put together something special: A fully filled-out example of the tool The Pilot Wealth Snapshot so you can see EXACTLY what your own numbers could look like Zero Forms. Zero spreadsheets. Just clarity.

Did Your Mortgage Payment Just Jump for No Reason?
If your payment suddenly went up and your rate didn’t change, it’s usually not a scam. It’s often your escrow account. Your monthly mortgage payment often includes: - Principal - Interest - Property taxes - Homeowners insurance When taxes or insurance go up, your escrow account may come up short. The servicer has two choices: - Ask you to write a lump‑sum check, or - Spread the shortage (plus new higher estimates) over the next 12 months That’s when payments jump. What you can do: - Ask for the escrow analysis - Shop your insurance if it spiked - Sometimes you can choose to pay the shortage upfront to reduce the monthly bump Has your mortgage payment ever jumped unexpectedly? What happened in your case?

Navigating Net worth with purpose
I’m sharing a Net Worth Check you can use to start moving in the right direction. Once a year, I sit down and run a simple debrief. You can steal this: 1. Net worth check 2. Savings rate 3. Big rocks 4. Regrets / misses This isn’t about perfection. It’s about building proof that you’re moving in the right direction. Steve
