  • Taking a Hiatus
    Mar 5 2026

    No new episode today, in fact I am taking a hiatus from the podcast for a while.

    One of the best things about being financially independent is the flexibility it provides.

    I have some travel planned this year as well as some other projects I want to give my time and energy,

    so it’s time to take a break from the pod for the time being.

    I am very grateful for all of you that have been listening,

    and I hope you’ve found some value in the conversations.

    Thank you very much for your support.


    If you haven’t already, I encourage you to visit my YouTube channel under my name, Dominic DeLaquil. https://www.youtube.com/@DominicDeLaquil

    Later this month, I’m wrapping up a comprehensive

    12-week video series.

    It’s a step-by-step guide designed to help families create the specific habits and skills needed to reach financial freedom.

    Here’s what you can expect from the series:

    Short and Actionable: Each video is only 5 to 10 minutes long, perfectly sized for a busy parent.

    Family-Focused: While the principles apply to anyone interested in the path to financial freedom, this series places a heavy emphasis on helping parents build habits for themselves and their kids.

    So, please head over to YouTube, search for Dominic DeLaquil, and check out that 12-week series.

    It makes a nice, practical, step-by-step compliment to the conversations here on the FI for Kids podcast.

  • How to Monetize Your Life and Prepare for the Unexpected - with Bart Merrell
    Feb 19 2026

    Financial freedom doesn't always require a master plan—sometimes it just requires you to open your eyes to the opportunities you are already holding.

    In this episode of FI for Kids, Dominic DeLaquil talks with Bart Merrell (The Side Hustle Samurai) about the concept of "Monetizing Your Mindset." Bart shares his philosophy that whenever something happens in life—good, bad, or ugly—you should always ask: "Can I monetize this?"

    Bart proves this concept with his own life, sharing how he turned a tragic leg amputation into a consulting business that helps others navigate their medical trauma. He also shares a simple "3-List Strategy" that anyone (including your teenagers) can use to find their first side hustle today.

    • 0:00 - Intro
    • 0:40 - What Bart learned from his dad (The Pig Farmer Entrepreneur)

  • Stop Trading Time for Money: A Dad’s Guide to Passive Income & Raising Money-smart Kids - with Ian Noble
    Feb 5 2026

    Many parents fall into the trap of thinking "more money" equals "better parenting." But what happens when building wealth costs you your relationship with your kids?

    In this episode, Dominic sits down with Ian Noble, founder of RunSteady Investments. Ian shares his powerful backstory of growing up in two very different households—one wealthy but frugal, the other living paycheck-to-paycheck—and how that shaped his view on money.

    We discuss his transition from an exhausted business owner working 80 hours a week to a passive investor who prioritizes time over status. Ian also breaks down exactly how to teach kids about "Opportunity Cost" so they grow up grateful, not entitled.

    We cover:

    • A Tale of Two Households: The lessons Ian learned seeing two different financial worlds.
    • The "Zombie" Dad Moment: The wake-up call that led Ian to sell his successful business.
    • Passive Income 101: How to stop trading time for money (Real Estate & Mobile Home Parks).
    • The Entitlement Trap: How to teach kids that "stuff" has a cost—and why they should work for what they want.
