It Might Be Overpaying You","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":1829,"description":"Most people believe their worst job was a waste of time. The low pay. The long hours. The frustration. The feeling of being stuck.But what if the job you hated was actually overpaying you?In this episode, Keith and Doug take a candid look at the lessons learned from the worst jobs we’ve ever had—from fast food counters to hotel front desks—and why those experiences quietly shaped skills that paid dividends for decades. This is not a motivational speech. It’s a practical reframing of work, training, and long-term value that especially matters if you’ve ever thought, “I hate my job” or “This can’t be it.”You’ll hear why:A paycheck is often the least valuable part of a jobThe worst roles frequently deliver the best trainingEarly work experiences build empathy, discipline, and perspectiveLearning to think long-term matters more than short-term incomeThis conversation is especially relevant for families, professionals, and parents guiding young adults through early career decisions and for anyone building wealth with intention, not just income.If you’re thinking beyond today’s job and toward a more intentional financial future, we’d love to help.→ Work with us: https://www.gimbalfinancial.com","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/KmuiimG1JFbZUHe-bhnPBJ0y4SJ0wy-v--_HuuSvNXc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS80NjJh/ODcyYjJiNzU5NjIz/Y2RkNWRhYjdlYjA5/ZTIyNC5qcGVn.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
