Ken Caviness: What I Want My Grandkids to Understand — REBL Dads Reflection

Ken Caviness on the legacy — and the values — he wants his grandchildren to understand.

Full Reflection

This opportunity has allowed me to focus more on what's important — not with my kids, since they're grown now, but with my grandkids. How do you instill in them the importance of the opportunities in the world, and the assets they've been given? Not because money is fun and buys you a Lamborghini, but because money is an opportunity — you become a sponsor not just for yourself and your family, but for the people around you.

I want to instill in my grandkids that they're lucky to be one of many in the world, and how important it is to take what their grandmother and I have achieved and leverage it to do even better things — not just for our own family, but for the people around us. That's community as a whole: church, Boy Scouts, the Salvation Army, whatever it may be — charitable opportunities where you can make an impact on a fellow human being instead of just being self-focused.

Taking this back home lets me know those opportunities exist, and that there are like-minded people who will support you. It's allowed me to prioritize things. Thank you very much.
