Every time I see or hear on the radio the Ramsey show it really is unbelievable what people do with their life/money especially when they are over 65 years old and have to work. It is heartbreaking and very sad. I came from India (the largest Capitalistic country in the world) where we have no welfare, no social security, no free school and no mortgage, just maybe now it is possible to get a car loan, so our parents (especially the father teaches us kids to spend money wisely and invest in the future) so when I came to the US, I followed my father's footsteps to build successful future. I did not follow Ramsey's baby steps because I did not need it (I have full respect what Ramsey says to the people in trouble) I hope there are more and more people who listen to Dave Ramsey before they get into trouble and make wise decision in life......keep up the good work👍

I retired last year from hospital admin job after 22 years of service at 60 years old. I got financial management counseling for two years prior to retiring. Paid off my car last year. My husband is retiring in 5 years from the post office & I double his contributions to the pension plan & the post office matches. Last year we got a 10k gain on his pension investments. We purposely have shared one car the past two years to go to work (I worked in daytime for 30 years & he works evening shift for 29 years at post office). Prior to that we paid in cash for used cars, to avoid car payments. We have a 2018 Subaru that I paid off 8 months early. Now I’m working on paying off our mortgage, so in five years we will be mortgage free when my husband retires! 😊❤️

Also maybe you might agree with this US gov waives the white flag, all student loans are forgiven AND going further student loans are not guaranteed and make university cheaper.

It’s called cosmoline and not sure what vehicles you own, but from my experience people tend to blame the brand for their own negligence. Modern vehicles are much more sophisticated and don’t tolerate skipped maintenance quite well. Are there some defective models out there? Absolutely, but most of the time people just don’t maintain their vehicles then act surprised when they break down.

You aren't. But statistically, (too) many credit card owners spend way more than they would IF they'd pay in cash all the time. And often, the "earned" free points are going to be used on things that in itself cost extra money, like a vacation trip were additional money is being spent. Bottom line: If you're in firm control of your spending habits, a credit card is no problem. For a (vast) majority it is, though.

Sounds like you are doing a lot of the right things. If possible, build yourself an emergency fund equivalent to about 4 months of living expenses, and make sure to invest so your money can earn some good interest. Consider a 401K or Roth IRA. If you're approaching retirement or are an ultra conservative investor, shop around online for a good CD - but don't lock up all your cash in there. It is better to get several CDs that mature at different times so that you can still access your money when you need it. Health, wealth and success to you.

[@jaymoney9643]

Dave gives top tier advice. The one area I would disagree with him on is to not say things like “you’re going to sell it wholesale, might as well sell it to me.” At that point, you’ve shown all your cards and the salesman has no reason to incentivize you with a slightly lower price. Plus, lots of dealers are super competitive. I’ve seen people who were hard negotiators get great deals because they were humble and didn’t make it seem like they knew the dealer’s business or what the purchased the car for. And I’ve seen people walk in with an add from 6 months ago of the car still sitting on the lot talking about how they would never sell the car get completely blown off. Just be careful with your language when you negotiate. Be humble and act a little bit ignorant of the topic if you have to.

[@Jenda-ld8dj]

Negotiate entirely in writing and take your time. Hold your ground.

[@thetapheonix]

Huh? If it’s the wholesale price then that’s as low as it goes unless the dealer will take a loss which they never do. Wholesale would be a good price as a buyer and if the car has been sitting they can move it to not have to pay the showroom. If he dealer says no walk and tell them they can eat the showroom costs another month. Don’t humble yourself, they will add all sorts of shady costs and market adjustments, hardball them all day.

I am of the old school and you mostly don’t buy unless you have the money. Houses are the exception. But depreciating assets like cars is just a no. Drive a paid for older car. There is only two ways to pay for things. 1. Save up and buy for cash 2. The most expensive one, is buy and save for the repayments plus lots of interest. I am amazed that people often think Credit card limit is cash to spend. The CC companies love these people. I am from New Zealand but on the U.S. scale I am in the top 1% of assets and income and I drive a 2008 Lexus. I do have other vices but all paid for.

I am so enjoying this episode! So proud of my adult children after watching this. (I'm speaking from April, 2024) I'm especially proud of my daughter. Last year, she worked a resort seasonal job. She saved over $6000 during that season. Near the end of contract, she went looking for a good, used, car - her first personal car - to "drive home for the winter, til the next job." She spent 6 weeks or more researching about used cars, then shopped all around her, and paid $5000 for a used 4wd Mercedes SUV. It had a couple interior cosmetic flaws from use, it had a crack in the windshield. It had 160,000 miles on it. Little rich girl owner had a new ride and wanted to get rid of it. :) Wow, that '08 MB is well built and drives beautifully. It has been well maintained and has no major issues. Back home in smalltown USA she works in the city street dept and is popular with all the guys (you know, those guys that know guys ....) Her fuel pump failed and 'the guys' helped order a new one and put it in at their garage. She's spent about $2,000 total over the winter to flush out every little thing that needed replaced or repaired. The 'guys' helped her locate parts at the best price, even helped her do some of the labor. She could probably sell it now for double what she paid, or more, but she loves the car and says its perfect for her lifestyle of travel-work. It seems the city-street dept guys now have a bit of, er, Big-Brother Pride? in saying - "Oh yeah, THAT GIRL THAT DRIVES THE BLACK MERCEDES?... is a good friend of mine. Helped her replace [whatever]. She paid cash for that car, ya know . . ."
