PODCAST EPISODE 364 – The Disneyland Cheat Code

We skipped the 3-hour line. And it cost us more than our mortgage payment.

In this episode of More Than Commas, Paul just got back from Disneyland – and he’s not sorry about what he spent. He breaks down the one upgrade that turned a chaotic, line-standing, schedule-juggling trip into something his family will talk about for years.

But this isn’t just a Disney hack video.

Because halfway through the trip, Paul and his wife sat in a room in Coronado and were asked a question that stopped them cold: Have you planned for your family’s legacy as intentionally as you’ve planned for your career?

That question – and what it means for how you spend your time, your money, and your years with your kids still at home – is what this video is really about.
