The problem is that when people go buy cars, most of the time, they listen to what the dealer says the payments will be and they accept it, not really taking into account their lifestyle. The dealer doesn't care about your lifestyle. They are simply crunching the numbers based on income.

All my life I look for older lower mile cars. My pickup and car are around 20 years old now and they get me around just fine. My tags and taxes this year were $164.00 dollars. Why spend $30,000 on a vehicle when you only spend 1 to 2 hours a day in it???? I always have them serviced regularly and I wouldn't be scared to drive them cross country. Learn to take care of your vehicles and they will last a long time. My phone is just a cheap Walmart phone and it don't cost me much. I don't get caught up in buying a new phone every time a new one comes out on the market. My laptop is eight years old now. I learned to keep things till they don't go anymore. My house sits on 10 acres and it is paid for. I am out of debt and have been for years. All that money I save looks better in my account than some car dealer, banker, phone company, treasures office, etc. Now take my neighbor who has two new vehicles, boat, camper and other toys. He owes on everything and he has two jobs and his wife works too. You call that a life. I believe he took his $20,000 boat out twice last year. My $600.00 dollar boat works great and I take it out at least once a week. People need to learn to be content is the first thing to becoming debt free. If we took away everyone's credit where would they be? If USA didn't have credit most people would be out on the streets.

Most of these comments are insensitive and judgmental. Of course she’s going to be a bit defensive. At least she had the courage to call in and seek advice.

I truly hope her an her husband are on their way to bettering their situation and have learned from their mistakes. We’ve all made mistakes, some at a higher price than others. I’m sure she has read these comments and instead of shaming her, we should encourage and support her journey. It’s so easy to see someone’s misfortune and mistakes and quickly brag about how we’re so much better in those areas they’ve messed up in, but I’m sure there are other areas in our lives, that have nothing to do with money, that are in total chaos.

DP- MCFLY yes. if you only make 30k you cant afford a good car.

[@pleasuretokill]

Depends what your other finances are, really and what you call a "good" car. If you don't have kids, rent and have roommates and no credit card debt or any student loans (my situation) you can afford a bit better of a car. $10k in that instance will get you a "good" car if you shop around. I make closer to $40k, which isn't much, but my total debts minus food are about $1000 a month and that's WITH my $305 car payment (0% interest). Not everyone can be lumped into one scenario. It's the people with massive student loans, 2 kids, $10000+ in credit card debt and a sizeable housing payment that end up taking on a $30,000 car loan that need to be worried. I will probably never have kids. Escaped a 6 year marriage without having them.... no thanks. I like money and freedom too much, lol. Call me selfish, I don't care!

[@anaq6149]

[@josephbaber12]

That's not so much selfish. Your more than less depriving yourself of simple life pleasures. For instance My daughter has been a godsend to me. Knowing that all the money I work for will go to someone I love dearly when i die gives me motivation to make more. Your actually limiting your success because all you see if dollars and sense and don't have anything to put that back into. (freedom isn't worth as much as you think it does.)

[@EpyonRoyal]

"I don't wanna work, my husband is broke. How do I pay my bills?"

[@TacosnZorro]

Do you have any idea HOW expensive child care is!? They're SAVING money by her being at home. She'd have to take home more than her husband with her new job full time to get ahead because half of her salary, if not more, to child care. It isn't a matter of "want" to work. However I do think it's ridiculous she went into a huge masters program and has no idea how much she will make with it. There are other jobs she could do part time even while being at home instead of amassing more debt.

[@AMindInOverdrive]

This is why I like to hear several opinions on things. Both of you make good points. I hadn't thought of the childcare but yeah someone recently told me the cost and I nearly fell off my chair - it would be better to stay home...also, kids being raised by mom/dad is much better for the kids - can't put a value on that.

[@amiramatthews3255]

We fell off our chairs as well when we started shopping around for child care. child care causes moms especially to step away from the work force. Along with a shortage of quality care. Cost and safety were the deciding factors for us. Its a catch 22 if working and paying child care put you in the red. One parent staying home saves money. Childcare. Transportation cost. Cost of two vehicles. It all adds up.

[@ladyema8836]

Yep, single moms do it everyday AND pay the expensive daycare. Pay $7000 - 10000 to the daycare but with a Masters Degree you could be making 40000+ first year and grow your income from there as you gain more experience. You still bring in money. These are excuses women who have husbands that can work find to stay at home with the kids. Which if you don't have debt or your husbands money is enough for your family then ok you have the luxury to do that. But if you have a large debt, don't complain if you are a part of the problem and not the solution.

ALWAYS pay off the debt with the highest interest rate %. I had a used car with a 5.69% interest rate, now it is fully paid. That's why it is important to always pay your credit card at the end of the month. If your credit card isn't paid, most of them have a 15%-25% interest rate on them. Then this would be the debt you need to pay off first, because it has the highest interest rate.

After that 2-3 years used for anything else I buy and it will be cash.

[@ASmith-jn7kf]

If you can afford it I guess it's fine. No matter how much money I had, I would never pay that much for a car.

[@crb4059]

$900 a month now

[@goldentrucker7921]

Way too much debt! They need to cheap cars. 2004ish Honda's or toyota corolla. Get rid of the car payments, and work down the loans! They're living like they're making 150k a year

[@sharonsmith6592]

pay your statement balance or current balance. In either case, there are two good rules to follow - keep your spending low enough that you can pay off your statement balance in full by the grace period, and always make sure that you make at least the minimum payment on time

[@renewedinchristromans12]

Dave Ramsey is awesome

[@mdrmoose]

so glad i chose electrican over college! been in 10yrs house paid and multiple new vehicles paid off! so glad most people look down on construction careers!

[@katanderson22]

Here student loan payments are going to be well over 750.00 if on the typical 10 year repayment term. Holy cow and she doesn't want to use her degree right away. YIKES.

[@angelbear_og]

+Katrina Murphy It's not that she doesn't want to use it. She had a baby (surprises happen) and is doing the BEST thing for her child -- staying home to raise it. Frankly, I can't stand people who pop out babies and shove them into daycare so they can "have a career."

[@katanderson22]

+j3ss4ndr4 oh I understand I'm a SAHM too, but did she think about loan payments when she started grad school, or purchased two cars. I just think a lot people in today's world don't think about the future with this type of things. I mean you can have a car loan for eight years, can you imagine where you could be in eight years when signing those loan papers.

[@karenvanorden6711]

Kat Murphy and if she waits her degree will be less marketable

[@jtowensbyiii6018]

That's not 10 years that's 30 years

[@mmledwards1979]

Back in 2002 I bought an $18K Mint 98’ Trans Am and took it to a shop to have the dash ripped out to make the car talk and have gadgets like Knight Rider. When all was said and done I had a car I soaked 50K into and it had a cardboard (covered in Vinyl) dashboard. Sold it for $23K! Biggest financial mistake of my life! As my father says...”The best lessons in life are bought and paid for”

[@F_And]

If you're staying at home so much, why do you need such an expensive car?

[@jerbearnotabear6818]

What is wrong with people!? I can't understand the stupidity! I admire Dave's patients and sympathy.

[@FortuneSeek3rz]

Without these types of people Dave doesn't have a radio show. He needs these types of callers. That's where his patience comes from.

[@malikaharper23]

She should of waited for grad school if she wants to be an at home mom and why would she need such an expensive car to not work

[@fladave99]

If you are getting behind always call BEFORE your payment is due and try to get an extension. Does not hurt your credit and just make it up later.

[@alfienykabutler5919]

Sometime I have to ask myself. WWDD "What Would Dave Do?"

[@Curiousnessify]

he would say sell it

[@margareto1600]

🤣😌

[@DamonMoves]

I think one very underrated thing that a lot of people don’t think about, is can you catch bus or walk to work? Or share one car instead of having two cars? Or get rid of car payments and just get a cheap used car to get around.

[@ladypilliwick8179]

wow. I see a divorce big time headed their way.....sad. this story makes me cry

[@ASmith-jn7kf]

Why is that??

[@frankrobinson5453]

My mom always told me if you don't have nothing to say, don't say anything. I have no words for this woman.

[@AzariaBell24]

Sometimes I wonder what these people would be doing if they didn't know about you dave!

[@TheRamseyShow]

+Azaria Bell Thank you for watching!

[@Michael-ke8on]

+Azaria Bell Yeah, it's hard to know who would show them the light of way.

[@bigmo6211]

Sell your car before you call Dave 😂

[@themontephone875]

BIG MO . That’s what I was saying. Write it out before calling in. Might be a reason why the call was sent through. Yep!

[@caalmen1522]

She’s not getting rid of her car lol

[@lifewitholga_]

wow he is going to pay for it! That's so awesome! I really hope they get out of that ditch. I pray they don't divorce. Poor kids

[@cartninja6479]

I make 90k take home and I drive a 2000 ford focus . I did spent 1500$ to replace tons of parts but I pay 25$ car insurance . I dont take about impressing materialistic people

[@timetoinvest1012]

Thanks ,Dave I just bump to you talk show because I have 20K in credit cards dept and I was surprise how much dept others people have compare with my dept.

[@TheRamseyShow]

[@Jonathan01233]

Time to Invest !!! I'm only in $12k debt, these people are in so much debt compare to me. I can most definitely pay off my credit cards by 2018.

[@KelseyCate]

J Brandon my fiancé and I are both 12k together in total. I thought it was bad nd was getting anxiety attacks because of it. And this includes student loans and credit cards! In two years, I expect 10-15k more on college, but I also have scholarships. But I was thinking it was bad until o watched these videos. I totally feel like we can pay this off by next year. I'm feeling. Little better too.

[@Jonathan01233]

Kelsey Cate YES we can most definitely

[@michealsurgeon3215]

@Time to Invest !!! Wow!!! We can help you take care of all your debts 🤩🙏🏽message us at [phone]

[@meanvecktor1900]

Man Dave Keeps it real, I love this guy

[@jediknight38]

With a debt that is over $140,000, both the husband and wife should BOTH be working!

[@timlwig5367]

jediknight38 extremely rare fir u not to be

[@texasgina]

I don't understand why people call if they don't want to follow through with Dave's solutions

[@Marie-wc7kt]

Girl please get a job stop it blaming the child.

[@ASmith-jn7kf]

How is she blaming the child? Is that a black woman thing, to have no inclination to raising your own children?? As a black woman, I do not understand the disdain most black women have for staying home and raising their own children and foregoing being a co-breadwinner. Why have children at all? If you are okay with missing out on their lives, not breastfeeding, not holding them, not being their main carer and nurturer, why do you bother to have children at all?

[@raggedyann4372]

The banks' family Babysit a couple kids and you can still stay home

[@RobertRoman]

I wish I had Dave Ramsey nearby when I'm about to make a stupid purchase

[@billgateskilledmyuncle23]

I went to college just to become a housewife...if I got a dime every time I saw that scenario, I could pay off their student loans for them.

[@vinceleonard8505]

Before getting into relationships, asked about their student loan debt!! Another victim!!

[@chadberles2056]

Exactly brotha men need to stop letting females get away with this b.s. a single man making 60k would have a nice life but not with a woman like this more car more home more children all things she wants

[@jennielin508]

Am I the only one who gagged hearing their debt!? Omg! 😱

[@PAPERCHASERCH47]

She makes no sense. Have 90k in a school loan and don't even know if she is gonna work in that field. Smh. I hope they get it together. Debt is so stressful

[@nanamc881]

And I was stressing over $3000 debt 😰😭

[@edselgreaves6503]

That guy clearly hitched his wagon to the wrong chick. His paycheck is basically being cut in half every month just to pay the mortgage and cars as it is, and no doubt he's going to be on the hook for paying off her student loans too. If he hadn't tried himself down with her, he would have almost no debt, probably using a secondhand truck and renting some cheap rundown apartment. But nope, he married her and now has to pay off her car, her degree and the kids expenses as well all on a single income. Poor guy.

[@brucekiraly5630]

Cars and school are the biggest wastes of money you can ever have.

[@et1016]

This poor woman will never make the kind of money she will need to repay her student loans. Very, very sad. She has made some very poor choices!!!

[@GoogleAccount00]

K Murray very poor

[@SightsSoundsAbound]

K Murray she will make around 40,000 a year and pay half her income to pay the loans back...thats why I havent gone back to school yet...

[@ASmith-jn7kf]

I thought counselors and therapists make a lot of money.

[@tijaduno3417]

Calls like this makes me keep driving and forcing myself to like my 2010 honda accord even when Ive been complaining it's too heavy a feel for me. I don't want my networth go down for a mere car!

[@WinWithKeshia]

I worked when I was studying for my graduate degree. I was a teacher for an elementary. I had to put my children in daycare. I had two little ones and one school age. She can do it if she’s willing.

[@harold562]

welp two videos and you got yourself a subscriber. honestly i am trying to get out of debt myself, i have a plan i am trying to stick to, but its a step on the right direction.

[@lilylanoue]

I wonder how they are doing now.....

[@F_And]

susan xD probably homeless at this rate

[@michaelwoods4495]

In Raleigh-Durham, why have student debt? What are you doing? Going to Duke or something? NC State is right there and not all that expensive. And as a former employer, I can tell you definitively that no one will care where you got your degree so long as you have it.

[@2centsfreelancer]

How u getting a degree and don’t know how much you’ll be making in your field 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@clairewillow6475]

The university Probably lied to her and told her that the degree will open all kinds of doors and help her get a well paying job

[@Starkster50]

My wife is the only one that works and I'm disabled on Social Security, we barely live from paycheck to paycheck, my medical Bill's with insurance are astronomical, I think the doctors kept me alive so I could continue to pay toward my medical Bill's. What steps could we take to structure some type of program for some type of relief ?

[@GuitarGuy650]

Stay at home mom, grad school, college debt, no job. My god.

[@TheSoftLifeDiaries]

An here I am stressing over a $1600 debt an heres this woman who's just completely fxcked financially paying for school she doesn't need while being a stay at home mom to 3 kids and a husband that can barely manage 😬 I've learned my lesson.

[@Yetaxa]

Is it an American thing to buy super expensive cars I know people in the UK who have cars like less than 1000 straight up

[@mike88wt]

1k to buy and 1k easy in repairs coming soon

[@themontephone875]

Yeti . Roads. Roads. It has to fit. Yep!

[@SharkOrDie]

$5K a month bring home isn’t $50K a year. I net $1.9K per week in California and only get $4.8K per month out of that! They tax me $600 a week out here!

[@nemybunny6132]

sounds like she has been wasting time and not planning on working. I'm working full-time, live alone and paying for school out of pocket. yes I have debt but nowhere near that much. lady is insane

[@ASmith-jn7kf]

So what?

[@pedanpontif]

The cars are not that bad. The problem is her student loan and not working.

[@SoldierOfFortune900]

Ok. Let's say her husband sell his truck. He still have to buy a decent truck unless he wants to lose contracts: potential costumers do not like old trucks that are falling apart. So he buys a 10k truck. Does he pay it cash ? No. They don't have cash. So he borrows it, but interests rate are higher for second hand vehicles than new ones. Plus he will have to spend more to fix it in the incoming months. About her, let's say she sells her car, we don't know if she really need a car to finish her degree and internship, why ? BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T ASKED HER. Let's say she doesn't. Then there is only one 10k truck to pay for. But let's say she lives in the suburb and there is no good public transportation. Then she buy a 2k Toyota Echo. You haven't told her about that...

[@stephenlozano2816]

I love these videos, I thought my situation was bad.

[@MundoHispano_SC]

Dang i don't feel so bad about my household situation. I'm a mom with a full time job. We gotta make sacrifices as a mom/dad/family. She gotta find a job period

[@dawnswenor6386]
