[@Essentialoils4ujess-weagle]

When my husband was actively drinking and gambling I had to go against Dave's advice and separate the money. I wasn't going to achieve the financial goals I wanted if my husband had access to the money I was making. Now that he's sober he's can think much clearer and be apart of the discussion. Sometimes having separate accounts as a married couple isn't a bad thing.

[@ShadeMiller]

It depends on if people want to change. If they don't then it's usually time for a divorce.

[@Tammy.822]

Have the money talk before getting married, before getting engaged even. These money issues usually don't just appear once you walk down the aisle.

[@raynaudier8622]

Tammy, start quizzin' em about how they feel about money on the 3rd date!! (They don't have to know that's what you're doin'😁). Just ask them: "What are your short-term goals? Long-term goals? Credit score?" If they feel offended, they're not for you. Ask them "What's an asset?" If you get a blank look.. move on, they're not ready. On the 4th date, ask a guy/girl to bring their BUDGET to the date. If they balk, or don't have one.. you'll save both of y'all a lot of wasted time. You really should be listening to everything they say & also what they DON'T say, to see what's NOT important to them; if they never mention spirituality UNLESS YOU DO😂..

[@raynaudier8622]

[@zoraster3749]

40k in credit card debt.... you’re literally paying $830 a month to pay the interest on the debt.... $10k a year... that you have to make ~13k in gross wages to pay.... just for the interest on credit cards. Haven’t even got to the cars or student loans. Wow....

[@3of11]

Another cool 4 or 5 bills a month on the student loans... I find it helpful to calculate your "above water day". The day of the month you have to work through to get to making $0 (ie paying interest and taxes)… Bet these people are like the 11-12th day of the month!

[@rathelmmc3194]

Zoraster, I wonder if explaining it like that to his wife would work. Like interest on their credit cards is more than their car payments.

[@thewhiteknight9010]

I had the bad girlfriends, cheating girlfriends and like the caller I am a trucker. I left everyone behind... never married and no kids. I went over the road and I live in the truck. I save 50K yearly on a truckers salary. IF you want it bad enough, it’s called “sacrifice” and most Americans don’t know what the word sacrifice actually means. I do.

xekis the wife doesn’t CARE there is a debt problem. Big diff.

[@xekis]

@@YeshuaKingMessiah There is no diff. The wife isn't looking for solutions. How does proposing solutions to debt change this in either case?

[@notclaire612]

Sounds like my husband. 150k household income and he laughs when I mention being able to invest one day. Laughs at paying off 55k in two years.

[@bigchills7194]

Dang he doesnt know a good thing he has then 🙄

[@MBarberfan4life]

That's terrifying

[@JJ-mh3hb]

Sounds like your soon to be ex husband

[@williamlewis3582]

Kill the debt he has to sacrifice.

[@MCgrease08]

Yikes. I hope you can get him on board.

[@mattmartin2205]

Whoa momma WTF☆ are you doing???

[@bigd3721]

How much money do you want to bet she is cheating on him

[@harris505901]

Not a chance, how judgmental!

[@bushmonster1702]

Probably

[@johnbarnettfishing1862]

I feel for this guy I am in the same boat lol. I’m paying down my debts and my wife doesn’t realize there is a problem and could care less. Hard to be willing to pay your other half’s debts when they aren’t willing to participate themselves. So I’m focused on mine 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@dbealby]

"Yep." Full belly laugh. Thanks Dave.

[@MyNameIsCorey]

And to add insult to all this financial injury the Mustang is probably a automatic 😂

[@sanniepstein4835]

Are they available with a manual shift?

[@NotQuiteEpic]

If anyone looked at the costs of owning a Jeep Compass they would run for the hills! Daddy had a jeep so his little girl had to have one too.

[@cerebralcaustic]

play this call back when people says Dave is too soft on women

[@granitemoss1451]

@Omne Obstat It's not the exception. He constantly calls out misbehaving folks, regardless of gender.

[@MegaeffinGarchomp17]

I think he just expects more of men but he digs into women too

[@z040880]

play this call back because it's such a rare thing for him to be critical of the women spending up all the money. gotcha.

[@MBarberfan4life]

Divorce isn't always the answer. Some of you guys...this is why I don't trust anyone!

[@BrandonKeis]

Dave is very inspiring. I’ve been so inspired I started to document my Progress on KZbin.

[@---skynet---]

I love this girl. Your a lucky guy... count your blessings she don't leave you.

2 of the worst cars ever made. Try a toyota, honda or tesla.

[@chrisjames7489]

Haha, I can appreciate you trying to contribute but Tesla’s are literally one of the least reliable vehicles on the road today. Stick to what you know. Also there are plenty of Honda’s and Toyota’s that aren’t super reliable. As blanket statements it sort of only half works.

[@HumblePeon2]

yikes, time for a new wife

[@Bestfriend-650]

Two weeks ago I bought my first ever nice car (Benz GLE 350, 2016 model). Looks like new with low miles and got it for half the original price. Paid all cash so no payments. But it happened after sacrifice, cleaning debts, saving money and living way below our means. There is a time for everything and if you really want something then be ready to make sacrifices. Next step is buying a house, already enough money saved for 20% down payment but I want to save some more so that I can make about 40% down so that my monthly payment is low for mortgage.

[@donnafontaine2799]

You are doing so well.. congrats and enjoy your car ...nice ride and yes your home investment 🏡 will be down the road good going😊

[@ebenezergyamfi]

I love this show so much 💯

[@j.3854]

This call is hilarious. It’s EVERYONE you see around you. All the “rich” car people you see. Bunch of losers and posers. We’re millionaires at a very young age and drive paid for Honda civics.

[@macummings7818]

Well done, well done I'd probably cave for a really solid-feel in my car, like a BMW or Lexus or similar, but I salute you - and your Civics! 😄👍👍

[@mspikachu738]

That’s sad. I had a brand new civic when I was 16…lol. You can buy a luxury car if you’re so called millionaire. You’re just cheap.

[@djakadt]

Just Empty Every Pocket Why do these callers love these pieces of junk 😂

[@fleurelise997]

Good one! 😂😂😂

[@monkeynumbernine]

No kidding... My best friend bought one a couple of years ago and actually hates everything about it, except the stereo and the color.

[@h1ghnezz]

I like this dave after 2nd video. He has something wise and honest. Greetings from germany.

[@fanmaxis3004]

I knew that would be a good one as soon as I seen the title in my feed

[@Behemoth66]

We have an income of 200k a year, no debt, and I still don’t believe that’s enough income lol ..75k is peanuts unless you live in Mexico

[@jayabrams400]

He needs to trade her in for two 25 years olds.

[@NoamMota]

😂😂

[@missj5564]

He will really be broke then.

[@bucketrance]

🤣😂🤣😂

[@bisayanne]

🤣 funny..

[@Libervation]

I'm middle income and believe strongly in living beneath my means. It's all about separating wants from needs, and prioritize paying down debt over wants.

[@magsteel9891]

$40k in credit card debt is nuts. Her buying a new sports car on credit right before getting married is nuts too.

[@RayRayDontPlayPlay]

Dave: #1 cause of divorce is money problems princess Husband with Dave on speaker hoping wife can hear: Right...

[@susancraigo8218]

I think she is going thru denial. In this day and age a middle class family is hit in every direction especially if you have kids.

I think Dave Ramsey should run a dating network so like-minded budgeters can meet each other and then get married!

[@darla2142]

And people ask me why I have never been married.

[@jenniferleigh1674]

You dont realize how much control you lose when you do! We work too hard to get off track when were single unless we really find someone like us with the same debt-free mindset

[@Jonathan-wm5ju]

Caller: my wife spends too much money! Dave: sell your wife

[@aligncars10000]

Wow! What a mess. I'm glad my wife and I agree for the most part on how we handle money. Do we agree 100%, no, but it's about 90%. You have to pick and choose your battles.

[@Letsbreal2023]

This is a broke princess🤷🏾‍♀️. No to fairy tales😂

[@aquarius9491]

This guy isn't an Alpha, He sounds like a soft push over.

[@nicolevolcy3511]

Aquarius she may be just as hard headed. Sometimes two meet and no one backs down

[@Dmal2301]

Umm, there's no such thjng as an Alpha. The guy who wrote the book on it said he was wrong

[@ke6264]

Lets all say it together, financial compatibility! Its very important to get this straight BEFORE marriage and engagements.
