Hi. I’ve been forced to find additional sources of income as I got retrenched. I barely have time to continue trading and watch my investments since I had my second child.

I agree with his wife. Portland looks run down, hideous, and boring. I was visiting Seattle and took a trip down to Portland and they have one of the worse homeless problems. The mayor of Portland and its citizens should work on a solution to clean up their city.

[@johnSmith-uz8nl]

There are some states that actually try to help the homeless and homeless people from around the country flock to those states. The fact is that blue states are much more sympathetic to the homeless then red states. So your comments punish those states or cities when really you should be praising them. But I understand it is the AMERICAN WAY - only care about yourself.

200K income and way in debt? As usual, it is not the income but rather the spending side that always keeps most people financially weak. Good advice as usual by Dave.

[@TheFlyingZulu]

They're not at 200k yet... They're at 110. Once the wife finds a job after college she MIGHT be making 90k. College is expensive and supporting somebody going to college takes a lot of resources.

[@Bradley-Thomsen]

Here is my question and a struggle I have always had with Dave when it comes to renting vs home ownership. Yes home ownership can be more expensive with repairs and such, that I understand however the rates for renting right now (in our area at least) are more than 1000 more per month than what my mortgage is and we only purchased a couple months ago.... That extra 1000 a month could go to debt and at least from my perspective I would see buying a home way more wise in that case.

[@JamesSmith-cm7sg]

Because when it's your house you will spend money on it

[@happydays1336]

From what I've gleaned from his videos he always says that renting should be temporary--like when you're in the military, school or moving to a new place.

[@etme1000]

Hilariously, by the end of the call Dave actually - accidentally - paid some attention and listened to what the guy was trying to tell him. Which eventually led Dave to give an advice that actually helped. But for half of this conversation Dave had already made up his mind that the wife is a princess who wants to buy a house (which the guy never said), and was shouting them down about that . Then, accidentally! - he heard that the wifey likes the Ramsey thing, and the whole world turned upside down. So we can only wish Dave many more happy accidents in which he actually gives the interlocutor the time to actually explain his situation, and in which Dave does not jumps to conclusions after 30 seconds with no information received.

My wife hated where we lived after she married me. My house was in the wrong place. Nice house, wrong area. So I told her to find a house and buy it. So for the past 17 years, she has been paying the mortgage which she qualified for with her own salary. If you don't like the house, go and buy another one. 17 years later she wants to move 160 miles north of here, so we are moving to a new house that she liked. The best part is that when we move, we will eliminate the mortgage by moving to the new location. So it will be a bonus.
