244. Building a Solid Foundation to Financial Freedom w/ Richard Roybal Sep 26, 2022

Show notes

In this episode I'm talking Financial Management, as welders we have the potential to make some serious money, but we really don't get taught how to manage that money. I've seen on several occasions, a welder gets done with school, gets a high paying job and then starts pissing all that money away. Don't get me wrong, it's you're money do what you want with it. But I know that I'd like to live debt free and have a nice nest egg once I retire and also take care of my family in the instance that god forbid something happens to me on the job or before retirement. That's why I asked Richard Roybal to come on the show and give us some guidance on how to become financially independent . I know it's not the typical welding topic you all are accustomed to but it's still relevant to this career so I figured it would make for a good topic for the audience. There's even some great info for those of you that have already started your own business, or are thinking about going into business for yourself.

243.Not Your Typical Engineer w/ Paisley Natalia Sep 19, 2022

Show notes

While I was at the Welding Summit I met some pretty cool people, one of them, was a welding engineer, and I know what you're thinking welders and Engineers don't typically get along but Paisley Natalia isn't your typical Welding Engineer. She likes to get in the shop and work side by side with the welders that are making the repairs. She doesn't try to do her job from behind a desk, she goes right to where the work is to solve the problems and get a better understanding of how and why things work to solve in-service issues.
