flash ramsay, not withdrawn the lonely rams. Your personality is my co host today, open phones, a triple like eight to five five two to five day, is with us and wash don t see how day? How are you. doing well. How are you better than I deserve? What's up So I'm road to renewed everything. I've been listening to you all since about march this year, The currently on I'm a brand new meant to help their business area, I'm working seven days a week The therapies have over two hundred and twenty thousand are you there and well, I can literally drowning in it. Does you are right, yeah sort giving my head above water,
wait, how did you rack up two hundred grand you go to a private, undergrad and private call a private grad school, not not even credit, though A total of two hundred and ninety grant in student loans are fifty three hundred and four one credit card. I just got a hospital bill for seven. Fifty eight mike yesterday and then I have ninety two hundred left on a car. What are you What would your hourly right right now? Forty five per choir plus, I also use an administrative work for the practice and I believe on the weekend you still working through licensure. Forty five is about one third, the market rate right now and I'm not. Like I give graduated, I m is used to work on a working under three thousand hours. Yes, totally. What a mess!
the mass, show, what does that mean: you're making a year total household income, now it's the fluctuating, so I'm anticipating in the fifty three thousand arranged this year, gives because of bomb uniting their think right until march march last april,. and once you get licence that will the your take humble triple that right once again, license. I. If I stay within the practice, I think you'll go up to sixty five or seventy in our not practice. you're doing euro your do your clients on the site at full rate. On the back end,
yeah. I do want to start my own practice at some point and I'm trying to get as many pointers by doing administrative work too sure that's excellent. Do that was so. How long does it take for you to finish that and get licensed, and so it it's looking like it's going to take a total of two years, no. There are definitely get a pig blank in march verb being licence for one year and another pay bump following march. Once I get only licence double, all my hours. In the meantime, I'm trying to figure out exactly how I can you know be gazelle intense also bring myself out working by defending these weak dave, hop in your view, I think I'm wrong, but I I would consider the phase you're in and as an extension of your graduate school, because you can't fully take on the
job until you get that licensure new king at the licence to get those three thousand hours. So really, I would look at this as a fall year of your graduate degree and paid for it, and so, if you're stick to that. I would suggest you cash flow everything and make sure your work in as many hours. You could possibly work towards your license you to get that's the thing at your head and you could not do. Eighteen months, if you flipped, involve some things around The thing is the decision I made was. I just look the dollars and sense of it all, and I did I'm staying working at a university where I could use the skills I learned with that graduate degree and counselling towards another end and it it just paid better. Quite honestly that may be something you want to do that might be taken a short term
the short term route out when you are playing a long game and want to be a licensed therapist on the road. But man, you've duggars have quite a hole now, so you got ya, you have two options: one is changed direction like John saying and get your income up or to stay, stay the course of what you're doing and fine tune it to get the lies and get them hours in the larger as quickly as possible. I'm am not sure the firm your with is gonna pay you market right. It sounds like you're going to be underpaid off the back into this We are going to bill you out at one twenty, five and they're going to take half of it or me out at two hundred and take over happier if your billing, I got a two hundred, then you can put yourself out on the market at one fifty and take cash only and you could do pretty well. Okay, that's a couple years away right. You have our full book. You gonna violations to do that and you got it if the clientele base to do that. So so almost david thomas out, almost rather her focus less on trying to pay the debt
in this madness. In more do everything you can to get every inch of an hour. You can get to get that licensure d, but about the but the hours pay better than anything else. She's do right about them, baby, it's better than administrative all day long, get was that's what I mean, fine, turning get you you need to talk to them and cigars drowning over here? You gotta give me more bearable hours. I gotta get these hours behind me. Can I do a second? I do a two saturday group therapy What can I do? Somebody says: let us keep in so much kids on shared, like, I think, that's what I'm I find turning it if you're going to stay the course you need to fine tune it and jack up the hours, the billable hours and the hours that are counting towards your licensure, so that was sure the time frame from two years down to one or eighteen months, that kind the thing is what I'm talkin about. If you're gonna do that, then yes, Johns right will treat dislike your and, in turn, will treat this law You're doing your residency for if your medical annie, you do you can do during this time, but you don't have
the gazelle intensity towards paying off the deck you're, not gonna, move the needle at fifty thousand dollars. Income in washington d c. Very much you can move it, but it's not gonna move dramatically, but it will move. good of europe. Make it a hundred fifty. Ah, you, start knocking us out real fast, especially if you get used to living on forty and on an you, push that everything towards this you'll be clear in no time once you get your hourly right up, and so if you say aren't, I'm gonna should like I'm in residency until I finish this in the next eighteen months or so then, get the right up and or I'm gonna leave this company and get the right up way up showed can attack this very very aggressively. Meantime, your work in the debt snowball, your student loans- are the biggest one. You're, not gonna, do much towards them. As you know, the minimum payment you can do for now, to keep em afloat, and you begin tat, those little dance the summer of the daughter, medical, you nuclear that you clear the little com,
long may be over this time. You know you clear up a couple things here and there and being tension will if you not a game plan. Where you see alive light at the tunnel, even if it's a three year light that lowers the stress level. Knowing something's difficult, is less stressful, then not knowing what the flips going. ambivalence as much more stressful than hard things right. Species are hard. Things have a finish line to europe, yep yeah, and so you know if I know what I gotta do, I can go. Do it and not knowing is what kills you, I think, I think it's an import mom withstood loans, but to kick back up dave Let's just say: she's has her licence and lives in a community, that's very expensive to live in and the most she's going to make she's done the market scan and that's what she's going to make or I've got colleagues that spent one hundred and fifty grand to go to to get a phd in history and I would be happy
investors and our job is forty one thousand dollars a year because there's that the market so flooded There is a hard moment when you look at how much you oh and the thing You really want to do you ve dedicated ten years five years, a lot of your energy and time to it, and it is now gonna pay you enough to pay your bills. You can sit like a bump. Log in yell and scream and kick and get mad at your employer, all those things society, since everybody or you can get your teeth and put your mouthpiece in and go get in a job in another field is going to pay sixty five thousand box or pay you eighty five to eight. You can have to do something else, at least for a season to clean up that hole that you dug yourself. It's nobody else's responsibility, a butcher's talk together last week, hundred and seventy five thousand a year selling cars, you make thirty eight thousand as a social worker with a master's degree in social work and a four hundred thousand dollars in student loan debt. But you might ask yourself:
you may have to go so course and keep that carried out there. I want to be. I work, helping kids, who are hurt and great. You can't afford to do that. Right now, the same as we tell pastor, I hate right now you're the kid that that's that's exactly right, yeah, you gotta do what you gotta do for a short period of time. That's not a forever thing I mean you have to banned in your dreams for your whole life, but your dream was turned into a nightmare.

John bologna. Rams personality is michael host today, thank you for joining us, open phones aaa eight to five five. Two to five. Molly is in boy. She, idaho, high molly, welcomed the rams issue. are you guys better than deserve? What's up, I really gonna get that future I I'm actually I'm very excited. I talk to you your daughter back in october, to get some advice. We just build a house out here and Fortunately, while we are building in our interest rate, with three point, eight to fathom her that ouch so yeah her hurt. The mortgage became well outside The day rule of twenty five percent like a way out, way outside, so we decided to sell a an ear currently under contract on the plus side,
walk away with about three hundred thousand dollars, while yeah yeah. Oh that's where I can. Do you live for advice in the small depend. What baby stop I will be on after discovering asia, or do we want? moved to florida in this community. That came really ray, but do we pay your town home, or do you take him? mortgage of, I think about it. About eighty thousand dollars to by a single my home. That will better suit our needs and what your household income A hundred and fifty What david Sharon rams you dont borrow money for ever? Shall we would choice we would have to buy a town home and save up money and make a move in a couple years move up, because that's how we do everything and have for thirty years after going broke they show we don't yell at you forever mortgage. As you already are aware,
I will we all you for wanting to keep it, but but not for have ok, and so, if you took out an eighty thousand dollar mortgage, that is obviously something making a hundred and fifty you to pay off very quickly. That's a very reasonable approach: to one we teach have you ever lived in florida before I had. I went to school there, ok Are you familiar with this area? I am yet the bay area, I almost wish for you had to get that Ninety, nine percent of the time, I would tell somebody moving from boys all the way across planet earth the florida that six months, renting, might clarify this, for you.
You might find. We were actually considering that first with renting for a bit, there wouldn't hurt, because you you'd think that this is gonna be perfect for us. Maybe it's not and the you might find hey. We have a small rent house. We could do a townhome it'd be great. We think we need this, but we're fine- or you might note, No we're gonna kill each other. We gotta get out of here. I mean you have to move twice, which is the worst on top of the worst. I get that but men I think long term. It might be smart, mathematically and falling and shoot with what we teach. Ah, in eighty thousand on her mortgage, making one hundred and fifty- and I have a plan to pay that often for five years- is as perfectly fine, okay and outside as well as a doctor. You, dr, I have pre ordered your book the day that you announced it that I've been thinking
I was just hitting refresh. So thank you for confirming that lead to another. One went to me excellent you're, the best I'm grateful for you. Thank you molly. Thank you molly. We appreciate that we have so more than two. So we know it's not just well. I think my mom's just hitting refresh, I think, she's just burning three or four she's going to have them all up in the garage they're going to piloted the garage whenever she passes away we're cleaning the house, tens of thousands of non anxious life books causing your mom anxiety. Yes, her financial planners going to tell me. I've got two bad news for you when she passes you get old you books back in. There is no money. This is your inheritance is hurt enjoyed rate not again. madison, as in los angeles, I madison welcomed the ramsey show. Hi what's up and keep her cooking? My car sure- and I am at newly married and we're just tempting- to kind of figure out our family finances. We both have zero debt. I'm we own our cars and have about one hundred and twenty five thousand
sitting when it and savings account. So we are safe. To buy homer. Currently, writing, but we are just not sure what to do, but that money sitting in the leaving the count and if we should invest in tests buttons tv there, what your recommendation, for that would be sure to shit treaties or certificates of deposit, it's not invest, manages to savings account Should you pulled in savings? Should you put it in an investment? When are you by a hard to say what the price around here. By coming down, borrowing yeah, I would say probably- were ass years for five years- would be our goal. Why? Because have enough money to put a good. You found me five thousand dollars how long you been married couple months: okay, if you're going,
don't let leave money alone for less than five years? We don't recommend you play that you put money in mutual funds in the stock market. I would just tell you to get get a get. A a c d, get a a high yield savings account or some kind of an I make this notice from four or five per cent stuff floating around out there. Right now is try to make some of that kind of money. That's not going to make you rich, it's just a fancy parking spot for a really nice quiet at our door, done costume, but and make you anything answer. it's not a good long term lie, but it's a good short term like as you like, a lose anything right. You can add to it and you know then, by your homes as possible, but don't wait around in los angeles, California, for prices to come down. If you walk on the streets of allay. You won't be hard pressed to find anyone that remembers the last time prices went down like they dont will not alive guide a good per cent to put down on how their home him it. Well, we want you to be
free as soon as possible, so we like the hundred percent down plan but you're an ally. and putting down a good strong down payment on your first home, purchased five. percent fairly normal, but where the pain we recommend the payment not being more than a fourth of your take on pay on a fifteen year fixed. But your household income this year will probably be around two hundred thousand, but my husband isn't sales, though it's not consistent and not sense, and how router twenty four and twenty five you ever don't show while regulation. What does he cell. The real issues worth only meet he's not going anywhere either. Now now, as a californian I can see those weirdos selling oil chemical meat may be the last time he actually now. So that's cool medicine, so yeah be a good if you could put the
if I were to implement the best thing, is to put down twenty percent, because you avoid p m, I private mortgage insurance, which cautious about we five dollars a month per hundred thousand borrowed that doesn't that's, not insurance. That gives you anything. That's insurance that pays the mortgage company in the event you get foreclosed on and they lose money show buying them. An insurance policy gives you didn't, put down a big down payment. So if you can put down twenty percent that the best of all worlds on a fifteen year fixed on a conventional mortgage where the payments no more than a fourth of your take home pay. I think gosh or just getting started at life and getting it that this marriage and your d really really. Well, you got an extremely good start, but it should causing used some lack of confidence because you haven't done stuff before and that's fine but I don't think you gotta for your weight here and
I'll tell you one more time: prices are not coming down show waiting on that. Don't wait, but if you went away we're polyps more money in this time next year, by certainly at the end of the world by the way you guys have the ability to save money. Congratulations, it's never garden. We dave Whenever you get married everyone, just you get the stupid it's advice from all corners of your life. Ever was opinion. The thing you need to do is make sure yaller, whatever most of the time when you're newlywed, you can't afford anything, and so that that advice rolls off your shoulder but they're in such a great position when somebody soon you got to buy right now, you gotta do this while driving those cars whatever it can be tempting I say: okay! Well, I gotta do something with this and now it's almost the same advice. I'd give a newlywed couple that had nothing which is just chill yeah work, real hard and jill and douglas a french and you're broke family. It's exactly right because there broke because of their beliefs What they believe is wrong wasn't hard

One one hundred to speak with you what's happening. Ok, so I kind of what should I do What would they do if he was in my shoes question for you, my husband We have unfortunately diagnosed with brain cancer a year ago they did on whether the cat male down cell type, but from what they can. tell you what it's probably low groaning that we don't have an actual diagnosis. At this point I am but so long story Sure they did. The surgery is a successful surgery. About ninety percent of the growth and he had not do any treatment or anything so far, and
well how's, he doing almost a year ago, he's doing so. Well, good! Praise! Guy he's a he's doing really! Well, I'm betting that the part that I'm wondering about Adam were surrounded by just the most tremendous community. and they thought they got together. The big benefit for us, and there is still a lot of money. We are, however, still in bed, so we know that this money for his part, the more impending treatment it before this cancer, if it happens to grow back, which we go for emma, is every three months so
We're kind of in limbo every three months wondering okay, is this: when we're going to do radiation or you know, that's kind of a tough situation, I'm so my question is: we do have this debt, we have about eighty three thousand dollars in debt total, but the some of the money from the benefit. from our community as about a hundred and thirty thousand dollars in right. Now, it's just sitting in in so doing nothing, because we have? I did what it. What is the aim of three thousand and death consistent? We both have student wound and that approximately, like total from the both of us, like sixty seven thousand so that we have sixteen thousand on one of our cars or other vehicles already paid off, but I'm so medical is all cleared up. Right now
for no insurance insurance and some other monies have kept you clear of medical debt so far, yeah exactly so. If you, if he needs treatment, does insurance give you similar coverage to what you've had so far, and I shall be able to go. to work you will living like things are only normal until they're, not Who knows what you should do? That's why you're so who, because they are, I dont, know their coverage of the insurance in a cover occurred. You brain surgery and you ve got no right no dad medical, lamentable that yeah yeah you ve got good insurance sounds like here: yes, we're! Ok, used any money out of pocket. How much money out of pocket cover cooperation, non insurance covered things of you? Don't we cash during those things and has not been much now.
What's your household anytime, you know that get mine. I would guess about eighty five thousand. Will may not number one. Let's just say out loud. All of this doesn't matter comparative you're already fighting okay here, like brain cancer, twelve out of tune right. eighty three thousand hours were: the debt understood alone and whatever two out of ten own importance in life. Ok, so I will help you with that. I'm not saying we don't need to work on it, but these are now. The same discussions So how ready one the biggest battle hope you ever face in your life at least for now, you want out of you won the war, but you won the battle. A great right agreed, pretty incredible, So this is this is just them in all cleaning up there dust on the shelf in life is not much. You know I mean we can get there. So
the more sure you are that this behind you, the cancers behind you and there's not gonna, be I treatment the more you could use some of the hundred and three because the people did not give you that money only for food for treatment. No one wrote a check and said this is only for future treaty. The people gave you money because they love you and you're going the hell and they were, to be there for you and they gave you money that it did not have tags attached to it. Am I missing something? no you're. Not now I don't want you to go put the hundred three on the eighty three right now, just because I want you to have it until this diagnosis is further in the river mirror, but not because People in the community are gonna start screaming. I just paid off their student loans while they gave you this money goes, they loved you and nobody needs. Anything about your personal, fine, you'll, have the publish this in the newspaper. You know
If you feel- and you had for the last six months- that you want to do something and you can't you sit there with your husband home his hand, and you just want to do you want to do. I got something for you. I want you to call insurance company and get in writing from them. What they're gonna do? In case you have to go, get chemo in case you have to get radiation. I want you to be I'm a bull dog and enjoy it enjoys a barrier. Enjoy being the bulldog enjoy saying. No, no, no. I need to know exactly and need you to send me in writing if they're not sent in writing within forty eight hours, you're calling them back saying. I need this thing, this person, This time said this keeping squeeze it records, and I think you're try to make decisions without date, data and man. The more data you can get in this moment, the more peace you can have in your home, John point. Let's say were six months further down the road,
all this is in your rearview mirror a good ways, a great yeah, ok and you conversations with the insurance got me. They said we gotcha gosh coffee, hardly anything if he has treatment, those two things. Those two pieces of data release, some of the hundred and three for me to put towards your debt. Does that make any sense a doubt but the more unsure we are the more we need. Two hundred and three Surety will come with distance in the rearview mirror and with the data points from insurance company that'll give you the sense of confidence to use some of this being unwise and right now: you're, national, but paralyzed by the total freak out you been through the trauma you been through. Now blame me get that show. I'm fine touching? The hundred three luscious chip away at the student loans for the next six months, beat on him harder can, as if you didn't this money.
And it's not ensuring their until we know that we know that we know that you're not gonna, need it and violet then do I lay there in saving it doesn't hurt if you put it in a higher salaries, count MIKE mike for five percent, so we're hundred thousand bucks on five percent makes five thousand large year it makes to the in five dollars in six months that we're talking about survivor dollars, does not enter into the equations. We're doing right now, so non issue Twenty five thousand would enter into it. But two thousand five hundred said it's that it's not relevant. It's it's. Two percent of the situation, we're dealing with the whole situation, not two percent of it so yup just park it in an age us in a hollywood savings at your local credit union, try to go for a fund for five six percent of the like that done matter, and you then get the insurance companies runs of insurance, but a bomb
and get this further in your rearview mirror went when was the last. What how long have you been out of the hospital in moving forward surgery, coming up on a year ago. In ok, you shall we would be eighteen months at that point. And arm You know we don't need to wait for the five year cancer mark. We're me to wait that long. But you know if we ve got eighteen months had almost nothing happened and you got real good data and in writing from the insurance company that your ninety eight percent, ninety five percent- ninety percent covered by them, then you his money around checking you out of debt, and that's like christmas, we're talking about that's like christmas in march now, but yeah, but that that's that's where you're going Good point, and if you get to the end there and in five or ten thousand dollars left in the spirit stirs you go, find a young pediatric family of a country

To a couple of those a year
is whether in springfield missouri mark, where to the Ramsay show MR andean doctored, along just calling to ask you guys that's my job I I own a business, but I only employ me in I'm trying to figure out then suddenly nicer. Mark I'm in the middle of the baby steps up, like quarter, lawyer into my guy thousand one hundred and twenty thousand paid off and I was wondering with the business income should that be put into the business first like I'm once I get my my tax account for then, should I build up an emergency fund for the business or should I focus that on the baby steps? And what do you do? A pooper cooper.
Ok. And what do you make it worse? and household income with a bearing on the business on the business I'll just business. It's about a hundred thousand ok, and we just worth ever so mercenary rather mamma is that's a lot of pope. Ok, which is one of the internal slogans about the show, but let it does it If you are listening to his show- and you say I can't get ahead and I can't figure it out. There's no jobs mark is making muttered k as a proper scope or sell it just keep that I picked it up the door, citys thinkin good up. I mark All the all the pretzels have you you've done them all too. So you've been doing this awhile. Are you alright? So it's it? That's amazing, I'm so proud of you. I have no idea, but they run about you and you have
like a route? I assume you go to certain locations and people pay you to come to their location, correct, yes, ok, cool and and how often do they pay you? I knew some some people weekly some people- tammy monthly, so it's just how come that's fine do you have a separate business account? Yes, all the money that they pay. You goes into that account. Never goes director personal account, correct, correct! Great first move: when you put money out of the business account to bring some home You should always set aside one fourth for taxes. You alluded to that sounds like you've heard me. Tell you to do this before I've got, listen to your show for quite a while, okay, so you're, setting aside a fourth when you take it home, a thousand dollars are the account user to fifty four such taxes, but seven, fifty in your personal account correct! Yes, look good,
good plant and you should household income, so your wife is working. What does she make so she makes fifty and then I've got military retirement and were foster parents. So we get a stipend for that and the channel tunnel. my terror. We get about a hundred and seventy year other twenty and military retirement, faltered, stipend, yes, ok, cool, aren't good what are the expenses of running this type of business fuel I gotta the locations yellows theirs you'll advertising, one trash bags, yeah and for brains wants no. I have to replace a raker bucket, but it's not much show so out of a hundred. I mean your your expenses ten grand may be right probably somewhere on that. Maybe maybe fifteen year, show the vast majority of this comes from the us.
Why would we made a vision as emergency around at the stage we are placing it's on the vehicle or you stuff like that. Now do you have a but work vehicle from your home vehicle. Yes, mocha shoulders like a truck involved or something, Yeah minivan, but yeah, ok, cool, so great mark. I can get tell you you've made my entire week is the suggests. Thinking about you, cruise in springfield, in a minivan, is getting out with a shovel and some headphones on making one hundred thousand dollars a year just get It restores my faith in humanity and it just a mark markka so ah You couldn't do that if it was russia to say alright, so the snow, no great danes in russia and that's it so alright arm.
I don't think you need much of an emergency fund right now. I think I would take most of this home of the eighty five thousand home or let let's just call it alright, put something in a in the return. So what would do in our leadership as we wish. I take your net profit, which in is eighty cents on the dollar. Ok sure we make ten thousand dollars this month. We're going take eighty five, hundred and call that net profit right and we would apply a formula that and say ex percentage goes home and The rest goes into an emergency fund, ok I retained earnings fund. In your case, I think temple it would be more than adequate and then take the rest home retain or it might be, formula, you make you make ten thousand dollars a month. It's a big mondetour good month. You have eighty five hundred dollar we're going to call that profit- or you know- or let's call it- eight thousand profit relieve the rest of it in there. For
spencer's! That's one thing and there were no such ten percent of that eight thousand, so eight hundred dollars because in another account forward and earnings and we're gonna take seven though, two hundred hours. I just made a formula up, but you can do something like that to where you take them, of this home and you a little bit in the business and you cover expenses and the actual expenses in the business that month now and the loot change any. If I were to hire somebody like I would have to set up a fund, for that is like in case. I don't have the money to cover a paycheck or are correct. Ah, but that scale they should be getting paid off the job. None of the paycheck right, yeah you're, not you're, not and you're, not gonna hurt them to make enough that its guy impact that. Much in why you shouldn't on the business yeah does so yeah, and then you would increase your income associated with them
so now I mean maybe a little bit, but it wouldn't change substantially. I until You get this last eighty thousand home paid off, I won't take mode. this money home other than tax money and business expenses. Ok, the arch, I appreciate all of it, but not all of it, but most of it and man and and he he you know that a guy like that is, Like he's heard all the jokes over and over all the bad thirteen year old, he laughs all the way to the bank yeah, and he is just but it you know. I can't imagine what the decal on his the the rap. all his honest vanishes rife in all his mandatory. What he's got to give their they just go run I mean there's some great. These Gaza duper prescription got great name out there that are hilarity. I mean it, there's some fabulous named by our member states. you're doing covert, who paid off like a hundred grand? Could she would she was. Eugene and dr in delivering, and I remember thinking
he's from those purposes it takes everybody's excuses away. Mart goes into their camp hunter thanks, bux, collecting dog, cha down his neighborhood Attaboy man. Why does nobody uses less you'll love?

It was a a harsh top in front of the mirror Only said what are you running from what are you? What are you trying to chase ripe, because I got want you to greece do and it looks cooler paper, but actually the dark seeger bind it was out or on an inn, run and run and trying to prove to every by died some sort of value she's not in school, though she's out, but that same added. You'd goes into your professional world goes into. I can't do this kind of thing, there's a lot going on, Is that right, yeah, she honestly a crushing. She got say that you want to go on about god, college, sir. She does the all the christian classes she good She really didn't go the sheep looking for a job. Water, water, her water afford a great. What are they
The christian study looking like scholarship excrements in the bible, the new spelling Ministry- failing industry to a general women in the munitions. Degrees, ok, There are some sizeable churches in the lead turn and local markets that could use and straight person that has this top level of knowledge and it's worth double thirty, seven thousand dollars. So here's the thing that can in an arc like your with and I've, been functioning in the christian community for a forty years now and some time, what can happen is is that we say that in
ordered in our minds somewhere deep down aside in order to serve god. We have to make no money right, and that is not. the bible and you don't. You know In order for it to be wholly, I have to take the skill set that I have and make half of what I make somewhere else by get a non profit and then I'll get to call it wholly or working at a ministry and then I get to call it wholly the holy work is when you are doing something as unto the lord. Do your work, a collage three, twenty two unto god heartily as unto god, when you deal with excellence and your your work your service to your employer, your excellency, is your ministry, is your worship and not national, exactly what is happening inside the building that you work out now we're bludgeoned ramsay and that we get the dew actual ministry? and I am in a for profit, sharing and pay people more than market right to work here. The most excellent people on the planet.
and so we ve got up at the hawaiian shall lotta, but we had to work through that emotionally and spiritually to make that ok before we could go, do it. So I don't know, she struggling with, and I dont know how this impacts. The medical shit donation or the medical and situation impacts this which ones the tail and which ones the dog, but that this idea that because I met Jesus and radically got saved and I want to state a bunch of christian stuff. I am doing my best for god by making no money while we're talking about tat. I stood alone while you're studying medicine is just not that as not a true statements. Yes, she should go, make more money, and if she has to go to an office to do that and If she can handle the pain of doing that physically, she should go to an all. And go make chevalier thousand dollars. She should do that for her work. of your medical career right,
and you can also get areas into reality and go work at marketing agency or at a police station, you can work all over the place with those degrees as well. You're not limited to just doing ministry stuff cause she she'd wanna step over. The mold could do that. She had If she's going to start a masters in counseling, no, no, she does not need a masters in counseling she's, addicted to education, yeah she's, addicted to pushing reality down the street in utah. This is the pot talking to the kettle here. Man, das, he's a piece inside her own heart, etc. On home in I find it at the university getting a degree. It's not there, so go into them a place in love. People well serve. People well somehow go to something with actual go, do something with gusto and make a power money doing it. Just like you're going to do like you're, going to be a dock and do that as a person of faith. Do that with gusto. My doc is a person of faith. I don't I'd rather not have a dockets not, and so you know you get to do that
from medical school and there's, you know, there's no written, there's no rule that says you're not allowed to make money in this process, and it's just not there. It's not there. That's a a tie chick version of christianity. That's gotten woven end too many peoples, So on the way we ve just got up we're gonna break there shall I think she its best, for I will put out an idea, and I do not know the nature of her medical condition, and I am not a medical, professional, but don't want. I do a long time I will put out, idea that works. in something where she was making a pile of money and extremely fulfilled. I would thank you might see a reduction in pain, and you have great human connection- is us that's it's. It's your jackie right, you're, exactly right, sometimes chronic. Ain't, your body tellin, you ve, got
just environment that your direction is in its hard and regenerating to another degree. Retreating and working only from home might not be the best you might stirred up you ve made me liking his rage. I fear not We all know that, but there's a pie. it's that that's in there. the sounds like it started. There's a pattern developing in this conversation here Happiness is somewhere over there after across that finish line the finish line but to say this to my colleagues, my former colleagues. Shame on you guys for itself somebody threw a programme for different bachelors, too he's out of the same department with the same classes with the same professors, taking more money and more money and more money. I was blessed aim to have a teacher cause. I try to do that to him on the ground and they said no, no, you complete this and then you go onto you graduate school. If that's what you want to do, but I needed some wisdom there in this
institution sounds like they just get taken her money, taken her money and get taken her money and for what you're going church and black. Well, you got a degree in christian studies and you gotta green christian ministry, but maybe you should have got that degree in christian sunrise So we can't you get work here as to how that works.

So what I decided a year of years ago, I had the blushing of going completely bankrupt and losing everything. So I didn't have a choice. I wasn't extreme situation, only way I could eat. Wood was to behave. The only way my children had a war home was to behave. I didn't have a choice. and so what I've done with folks like you over the years is I want you to put self mentally and a space as if you don't have a choice.

That day's question of the day is sponsored by neighbourly your hub for home services is you're to do list two long, whether it's a simple repair or a whole list of home improvements. Mr hand demands experienced professionals are here too, your home work for you visit I believe I com divine expert home service providers, including a locally up where did mister handyman near you writes in his question. from kyle in minnesota, call rights. I'm thirty four have been married for five years and I have two children under three so he's living in a blunder with the top off
this time in our lives. Together we are debt free. My wife is very frugal woman, a very frugal wonderful woman had may she got that in there and has been paid very, with me as I've worked through debt that I have brought into the marriage we sell their home to take advantage of the market and are currently renting again from a silver we paid off twenty grand and high interest credit card debt. We put an emergency fund away. We have the money to put away a six three six month fund. After this, we have three thousand dollars left over, which is an incredible feeling, but I'm scared to even have available. I don't screw this up. I just know the third Does knowledge can disappear? Pretty quick if I'm not responsible? I'm wondering if it should lock up his money cd or should I take or should take the route to face the things in me. That would make me be irresponsible for the first time in a long term, of the burden of debt of me completely, and I want to keep it that way, what your advice for some time and as I can make to actually become a responsible person and not have to lock my
money down into a bank to watch over it for me who, along questioner, very stuff where yeah very self aware- and I like it- I mean I think, is approaches exe, right cause a lot of folks run into a into gonna situation and they instantly go to shame. They got a character issues that go to a failure in this guy. looking look it, which I think in the right way, which is I there's a skills. I don't have it so I'm going to begin to seek to seek out gills and begin to practice it s good, for you call its awesome and so what I know about myself is when I get emotional- and It sounds like money is something that spins your body makes you emotional, so emotional. I bring. Other people into that conversation, because I know it about the lonely, that's when he gets emotional, I he gets irrational and he does dumb stuff and so
I will bring one or two friends in happen to sit by dave and ask him questions regularly. I have a banker that I'm close to them. Friends with that I can run stuff by so I make sure people in my wife I'm learning a new set of skills. Do as I am dave, I I talked about this on the show. A lot you set a new identity, I'm a guy stewards, his money well for himself and his family. That's who I am, and I'm going to reverse engineer. A set of skills set of behaviors is gonna back that up. I do not spin Out of this account. This is going to be your house fund. By the way, I do not spend money out of the house one, I don't that's just who I am and if that means don't care your debit card, great that means filling the blank while you're learning great, but that data so that those who s path dominating now, you're exactly right, so cow. When I was twenty, eight years old, we had lost everything would file bankruptcy because of meyer responsibility, because I borrowed too much money.
and a bunch of debt doing flip the shout before chip and drought Joanna were there to tell us how and and I I had choices at that point- my identity could be I'm a guy who file bankruptcy, I'm a failure with money, I'm a guy who doesn't know how to handle money, I'm a guy. I believed a bunch of get rich quick lies and I failed I'm a business failure. All of those would be accurate statements about the activity, but not about the person, because I you know I'm not going to self identify as a failure of the things. I did that several things I did there not who I am right, and so instead I said I didn't know. I was doing at the time I learned from you later, but I accidently did it. I just I'm a guy I made a lot of mistakes with money I learned not to borrowing famagusta, never borrowed money, but let us each tab,
tori. Let's get between that. You are guided said. I'm gonna learn about this. The right way now, I'm alone there were set of skills from the bible and from god, and your grandmother common sense. I'm a guy. To believe academic hogwash about money that half the culture blues and half the culture of broke because of it. and I don't have to follow them. I'm not a living on the go. Learn. I'm gonna learn how does really worked from rich people in IRAN, I'm to put a stake in the ground, and I learned I dont borrow money anymore and that's who I am I identified, someone who doesn't borrow money period and how get there. Well, that's an interesting story, but doesn't matter the identity. Is I dont borrow money I was a guy who would mix up everything like you, kyle say: well I mean a there's money near came out in others checks in the cheque book. There must be money, they account. I mean it's just like we'll figure this out, because I might, total surplus got. I didn't. I a
scarcely knew my garage. I mindset at all, I'm out, there's always in abundance, there's always a surplus. The glass is half full me, I'm I'm up for years, doubt earn much stupidity because of that just because I believe it's out, you will go for I doubt we can make some more money. Money is always out there we're just gotta go get some of it, enjoy it and so and but not having that emergency fund set to the side, driving my wife to distraction, I mean into pure freaking, tear and so I had to set an emergency fund aside and say the psycho, my marriage. The thing I have learned is: I am going to just like that money is not there. We don't even- the emergency fund. Still, if there's an emergency, we just figure it out and don't touch the emergency, but we have never. actually emergency von in thirty years, because we can't touch it. It's not there. And if we do share and would be launched into orbit somewhere and we'd have to pull back now. She, if get near that emergency fund it remind her bankruptcy in the end, the lights being cut off in the water being cut off in a low kid with no food and
members all this stuff, and she remembers it very clearly and so We can't go near that fund and I'm ok with that. I don't even remember there anyway, I gotta figure it out cause. I forgot it show that's what you do you this money aside in a completely separate account attached to nothing and you forget that its there and what does it look like in real life? It looks like this, I'm never going to borrow money again, I'm a guide. It will never borrow monument steward. My family's finances, along with my wife,. Today we got a new car. The seems ridiculous, not happening. The air conditioners round the car. When money not bite it a day filled the blank tired. I wanna go on vacation, so here's the thing churn. We, the kids, were the size and when work coming out of the bankruptcy and we're digging out. I don't know I dunno if I've ever told us and I'm probably gonna, get in trouble, which she would get this
blender with the top off. I mean little kids run around by the end of the day she spent just taking care of small people that don't make sense right, and it's just they're, just they're, just wild just mula fence animals right crazy, they're, feral, and so you come home and she's got that wild. Look in her eyes and she's like I need a vacation need a vacation I knew vacation became a thing is like on a vacation and We only have one of on vacation so but just she knew that and she knew we weren't going, but it was her way expressing that the frustration with the day so we finally got out were cleared up. We got a bunch who started make some money. We say to us We bought a house and pay cash for it, we're going pretty good. Couple years later, we bought, we pulled a hunter thousand dollars out about this tiny little shack of alike house, and I had this- thing printed up with a picture, the lighthouse and we named the lighthouse Sharon's vacation.
because she had earned that vacation dog above ever so much but yeah it's a matter of saying this stuff out loud and. yet being grown? Ups about some re identify with this cairo re identifying, say I'm a guy money, I'm not an irresponsible. I used to be, but I'm not anymore, it's it's hard getting there. I used to be thanks, but I'm not anymore. Thank god. The large hadron bologna ramsey personality is my co host today. Thank you for joining us. The phone numbers triple eight eight, two, five five, two two five, this was the ramsey show Steven is whether stephen his in cleveland, ohio, hi, stephen, welcome to the show I Dan, how you don't today, they're great man what's up here, so here's the deal myself curly. I may cause sixty one thousand dollars a year.
I am our later breaks down about twenty nine dollars an hour I have a great opportunity to move jobs in the same industry and the salary and with a salary change up to eighty, a thousand dollars a year so summit in dublin for some people, but issues but my supper, but the following: so the job is somewhere else and we would have to sell our house on the part of that would be if only lead in our house, for coming up on a year and that's one issue, the other issue, I don't know in with her mother in law, for these six months to a year until we either found insurance or to buy and then well biggest thing. Is we take six march divine stumbling around here I mean you're right, they're laughing. Absolutely
absolutely so we can learn from other little thing is mandatory off the table: shenanigans students an option, but he's not gonna. Let you coming over the reasons. Do not do this yahoo out so Luckily I like my mother in law, unlike some people, so she she's great, I'm also. Ok, I like mine, but I'm living weather right. I understand I understand what, whereas the other job so that another job would be in west virginia. ok. So how long have you learned in Cleveland you've in cleveland for two years by our house last september, when did before that move from warehouse on this year, german. Yet the taliban would be going back to I'll. Show you oh, I'm, so to speak, correct, yes and- Is that what you want to do forget the money right?
a site where you can make eighty eight thousand error you could make eighty eight thousand in cleveland. Where would you live? I would be with family. I was off, didn't say as as well, we don't have any relative equipment. It was mostly to move. So you get to move where you want to move back home near Emily and make more money. What is the question felicia. I know- and I know- and I I guess I I'm probably the one that sounds dumb on my end but there's like there's so much emotional attachment. I should at my place I'd like to welcome a baby girl I'll be six months in two weeks. I'm saying so many first, in our first home? You know bringing her home finding out. You know that she's going to be a girl, all those things dude, it's it's a box of sticks with a roof on it. Man go be with your family like for real and it'll it'll be hard for a year. It will be hard for
the home in sure sure- and I guess- okay- so I guess tat portion answered my levin portion would be and with the money that we were profiting from our house. Luckily, I'm pretty handy as well as my father in law. We did some work on our house, I'm be bought, or one sixty eight currently pay off is one fifty five we did had praised for two thirty, with the improvements that we made, hopefully felony, for more than that, with the market currently dough? getting around fifty thousand. So my question is I, with that man, me. How much should I swore towards that? If not all of it How much should I save how much debt do you have so I currently have on fourteen thousand dollars in credit card tat. I have run six thousand. And medical bills that's really it besides the house
one is not a cunning or ended. You actually clothes on the home to own it september. Twenty seconds of nice of twenty. Only about year of twenty enter yesterday, you, not allowed before september twenty second of twenty three, because you will be tough, that ordinary encumbers long term capital gains if a house one night or if you one year you get taxed on one time when your cap of long term capital gains of Yonah two years, you have no taxes at all. Ok so you don't close even if we put on the market yet tomorrow you dont closed before september. Twenty second, yet What, if I wouldn't anyway, just make sure ok, then you're gonna have a tie. of fifty percent of your gain, your game, Is this what you sell it for two thirty minus what you paid for it minus shales expenses
minus any big capital improvements that you and your father in law did to the house, namely something big. You did the house, we replace the back How can one over the deck cost labour and why we are not so we could have somebody come out just give us it was gonna, be around nine thousand dollar. A nine thousand dollars comes off of this guy yeah yeah yeah pay labour to fix the deck and show stuff like that. You're not gonna, have much gain because you got it benches minor thirty thousand or gain, but you ve got expenses come show. Expenses coming off that you're gonna from real her face from other stuff. That's easily. Ten fifteen thousand bucks you're gonna beside the ten thousand hours for the deck so you're not gonna have a very big gain, but you, whatever the gain, is you're gonna be taxed at fifteen percent of the game. So if the gain is
one thousand dollars, that's three thousand dollars. Taxes understood! Ok, ok, I guess at that aside, then we'll pay. All of these points twenty thousand dollars worth of dead. and then when you move your problem, we're gonna rent for a little while, and so up some money and buy a house? That's what I would be right and you go back to an area that you know really well. Why do you? Why have you locked yourself in your mother in law's house for six months on the nose We don't want to make any type of very quick decisions as to look kind of next month. So don't worry. We're just gonna go get your rental house for six months. and then parliament, on occasion you know, have your baby in your own home, with your own wife and your Independent little nuclear family there and let your mother in law come visit. You yeah that's what they're supposed to do and then they can go home, and then you can let them go home and all of that-
I can take your baby with you, so you they can actually babysit at their home. That's very nice! Okay, I'm liking this even better. Now, grandparents, like it too, by the way I'll be and I'll be taking care on a monday night. So there you go the grandkid that is so yeah that that none I'm living with me, though, under st aren't so anyway, yeah that that's what I would do man, I also don't think, there's any. The only negative side of the equation was memories image lived in for less than one year. Was that the only negative yeah I think again, it is a similar competition we have within earlier collar. I think there is something about I'm an hourly guy, that's gonna, who I am a fixed stuff Hey here's, a salary job for eighty thousand dollars and those are jobs and other guys get I'm gonna be a suit. or guy it's a different. That's that's a different mental. In addition, I am your in our and your cousin who isn't is going be living near. You could remove moving back near him. That's right and you can
I have more money than your parents. You're going to it's just gonna be a different ballgame and it's it's. It's it's wise to to get in front starting line in say, is this the right, the right trajectory and that's what you call people say I can see this clearly. What do you think in David are telling you in virginia, have enjoy your time kind of a no brainer yeah go for it. Man we're proud of you yeah at some, but let's, let's keep this family stuff real, clean, clear, clear, launch, clear, launch, it's just good for everybody! It's good for relationships is good for money. So you're dead, free, you're living in a rental for six months you ve got some money, not a bunch, but you get some money in an account, be adding to that end. Next spring you're looking for a place. I remember when she and I moved from our first house than we ever bought a member is so nostalgic and I drove by. a couple of years ago, just to like, as a
drive down memory lane and I just remember going and I finally had gotten PAC man, it's just a bog you're such a snob. It's a box or snob nah man, you're just too good for that neighborhood. Now, We know that neighbours way way better than an eye. Well, that's what I bag and I went into this place, went down or my tastes changed, Probably the actual, in this case elbow there has gone down and monterrey surging psalms, not straight up snap, I have adjusted. My expectations well and social media? You know I worry about that. I lay awake. Were twitter, bother of wonder about I worry about what twitter thinks about me and my biggest, It will now that you're a tiktok sensation, others say there. So that's why I don't care about twitter. This was the
our scripture sure that collection, three twenty three and whatever you do, do it hardly as to the law. and not to men? peter peterson's as pursue.

No we're gonna do this, the hall she bang and we sold our home in california, moved out here to tennessee and be paid off. Our mortgage bought a home out here. So where is the key completely that free thankful? You know to you and of course, my home who had to get me, I'm bored by or very black now you pay cash for a house when you moved yeah yeah. How is that We have no doubt whatsoever as a view: I still think about it, it's very, very rewarding and I'm very blast, because we have a loving you're all than an eight year old, and we really do with the word, the wisdom in the wine you know, and all that is, though I were able to get real, but it was good it with its night. it'd be here now in this place, I'm, but we did move our family we've. I was with my husband and I were born and raised in California. I'm it's not a place his children any more as though we came there that the promised land of tennessee, but my question to you.
You and I'm glad I also have on Mr Dorani there as well by my husband, was in the same we value the physical parapet, but a practice for fourteen years, I'm in an aesthetic, failed industry and though we did the move- and I think, he's kind of into a right.

You know I went through that really early because I went broke and because I started this, that I moved immediately.
