How I used AI...

... To Build a Custom Homeschool Math Curriculum for my 2nd Grader

In today’s world of digital noise and endless demands, homeschool parents wear more hats than ever. We’re not just educators—we’re curriculum designers, budget analysts, meal planners, spiritual guides, and motivational speakers before breakfast.

But what if you could outsource just one hat…without ever giving up your crown?

That’s where ChatGPT steps in—not as a replacement for your wisdom, but as a partner in your mission.

🧠 Your New Teaching Assistant, On-Demand

Whether you’re building a full year’s curriculum or just trying to survive next Monday’s lesson, ChatGPT offers a quick, customizable, and cost-free way to map out your child’s learning.

Within seconds, you can ask:

  • “Create a week’s worth of 2nd-grade math assignments.”

  • “Design a Bible-integrated history unit for 6th grade.”

  • “Help me explain photosynthesis to a 10-year-old using visuals and analogies.

And it responds with detailed lessons, project ideas, review quizzes, and even scripts for how to teach the concepts—all tailored to the style you request.



💼 Curriculum Meets Kingdom

As a homeschool dad of six, my life is a blend of spreadsheets and scripture. I don’t have time to reinvent the wheel each week—but I also refuse to settle for cookie-cutter content that doesn’t reflect our family’s values.

With ChatGPT, I get the best of both worlds:

  • Personalized curriculum that aligns with my kids’ learning pace

  • Faith-friendly prompts that bring spiritual depth into any subject

  • Efficient planning so I can focus more on discipleship than design

It’s not about doing less—it’s about doing more of what matters.

⚙️ Empowerment Over Replacement

Let’s set the record straight—AI won’t replace good parenting, strong teaching, or Spirit-led guidance. What it will do is:

  • Save hours of prep time

  • Spark creativity when you’re running on empty

  • Help you scaffold learning for multiple kids at once

  • Build confidence in first-time homeschoolers

In other words: it extends your reach without watering down your role.

Backtesting Visa ($V) Rolling 4s Long Term Options Strateg

  Long Term Visa ($V) (Rolling 4s) Play April 2017 – September 2020   Back again with another breakdown of some back testing I did on Visa ($V) with a LEAP option. LEAP options are 1-2 year plays using the Excel pricing sheet created by Mark Monroe to select the strike price.  This back test starts in April 2017.    I selected Visa because for this back test since I have been watching it recently. As we are going to a cashless society most transactions in the world are done with a debit/credit card. The biggest players in that space are Visa and Mastercard.

Overcoming the Fears of Network Marketing: My 20-Year Journey

  Overcoming the Fears of Network Marketing: My 20-Year Journey Hey there, fellow network marketers! I’ve been in this game for over 20 years now, and let me tell you, it’s been a rollercoaster. I’ve worked with multiple companies, faced countless challenges, and yes, I’ve had my fair share of fears. If you’re new to this industry, you might be feeling some of those same fears right now. I get it. I was there once too, and sometimes I still find myself wrestling with those same worries. The Fear of Running Out of Prospects One of my biggest fears when I first started was running out of prospects. You know that sinking feeling when you’ve reached out to everyone you know, and you’re not sure who to talk to next? Yeah, I’ve been there. In those early days, I felt like my network was shrinking instead of growing. I worried that I’d hit a dead end and be stuck with no one left to recruit. But here’s what I learned: You’ve got to keep going. Consistency is key. I started atten...

Top 5 Pitfalls of Trading

  How to Avoid the Top 5 Pitfalls of Stock Trading in 2024 Stock trading can be a rewarding and exciting way to make money, but it also comes with many challenges and risks. As an up and coming stock trader who has had moderate success thus far, I want to share with you what I have learned from my own experience and from the advice of top investment bankers. In this blog, I will discuss the top 5 pitfalls of stock trading in 2024 and how to avoid them. Pitfall #1: Going All In on One Stock One of the biggest mistakes that traders make is putting all their eggs in one basket. No matter how much you like a company, never make it your only investment. As Graham Stephan, a personal finance enthusiast and investor, explains, there have been more than 28,000 companies traded on U.S. markets since 1950, and 78% of them aren't around anymore 1 . A golden rule of investing is to build a diversified portfolio. If your money is invested in various stocks, you're not reliant on any s...
