MEET PAUL
During my exchange with Paul, he made it plain that although much is required of his time in his career where he is often on call during hours that the city is sleeping, if he is ever faced with the decision to support his wife or daughter in anything, “the family is going to win every time.”
Paul has said that every man has their own legacy that they will leave behind when departing the earth and his will be that he was an exceptional husband, father, and provider. If he doesn’t do anything else, being his best for his family is his lifelong aspiration.
He is also an advocate for responsible spending (not cheap by far) but saving, running a small business and making sure that he and his wife’s combined finances are allocated appropriately.
And can you believe that these allocations include expenses for leisure (i.e. international trips, weekend getaways, local activities they enjoy, miscellaneous shopping, etc.)?
The cool thing about it is that his wife fully trusts him with their budget. She sees the budget, yes, but she has said she feels that is his area of expertise so she is more than comfortable letting him manage it.
