Welcome to EWM INSIGHTS where we celebrate on HUMAN CAPITAL!

In this special classic replay edition podcast, we explore one of life’s greatest investments: fatherhood.

Paul emphasizes that while financial investments often dominate discussions, the impact of being an active father is profound and lasting.

As we celebrate Father’s Day, Paul shares heartfelt reflections on the importance of nurturing relationships with children. He argues that the true measure of wealth lies in the time spent with family, as involved fathers significantly enhance their children's emotional and psychological well-being.

Staggering statistics reveal that children with engaged fathers are more likely to excel academically, avoid trouble, and pursue higher education.

This involvement can dramatically influence a child's success, highlighting the critical role of emotional support and guidance.

Paul also discusses fatherhood as a generational investment, likening it to managing financial assets. Just as investors nurture their portfolios, fathers must actively engage with their children to create a legacy that extends beyond material wealth.

Takeaways:

• Fatherhood represents a profound investment that significantly impacts children's emotional and psychological well-being.
• Active fathers enhance their children's academic performance and reduce behavioral issues, fostering long-term success.
• Just as financial portfolios require nurturing, so too do the relationships we build with our children.
• The essence of true wealth lies in the time and presence we dedicate to our families.
• Children of engaged fathers are statistically more likely to pursue higher education and achieve stable employment.
• The legacy of fatherhood transcends material wealth; it is an investment in character and resilience.

This Father’s Day, let’s celebrate the fathers committed to this noble and lasting investment.

The Mansions of The Lord

United States Military Academy Glee Club

To fallen soldiers let us sing

Where no rockets fly nor bullets wing

Our broken brothers let us bring

To the mansions of The Lord

No more bleeding, no more fight

No prayers pleading through the night

Just divine embrace, eternal light

In the mansions of The Lord

Where no mothers cry

And no children weep

We shall stand and guard through the angels sleep

While through the ages safely keep

The mansions of The Lord

Memorial Day Letter to America’s Youth

By Lt. Gen. Hal Moore on May 26, 2011

https://americanprofile.com/articles/memorial-day-letter-to-americas-youth/

Greatest stated accomplishment: Someone once asked him, "General, what do you consider your most important accomplishment?" Now, of course, you are asking this question of someone nearly 95 years old, with somewhat of a resume.

"What is your most important accomplishment?" He replied, "It hasn’t happened yet. My most important accomplishment will be when I cross that line at St. Peter’s gate and meet my God and my [wife] Julie."
