Rachel crews number one by selling author ramsay personality and my daughter is my co host today as we enter.
questions about building
doing work you love and amazing. Actual relationships, threats,
there's something I don't usually don't go straight to the mail bag,
usually pull up twenty thousand seven, but let us read those occasionally pull off something that we get into customer care, hate mail or
patrols or actual just funny stuff are really inspiring things that customers do and you used to read it, and I read it to the or to staff. Meetings are done that in awhile, and I feel I read- I read this one monday morning at our art and might never
It was better the other day, as so was James. Our producer says you gotta reduce the audience. Okay, so
thanks for your practical and entertaining advise you and the team put on the room she shut, were debt free,

I think the person ahead of us in line was covered in tattoos on her face. When we
The teller, the check they congratulated us and then my husband turned to me and said where the weirdest people in hollywood quickly.
The high bar is the point huge thanks to you and the entire ramsey team, for your guidance and inspiration. We couldn't have done it without you way to go. Guys,
that's a lot of fine words about a world where it is people in hollywood you're. So where do we say that all the time, but really not exactly in that context? What does that destroyed up funding? That's great open violence here, a triple eight, eight to five, five, two to five mats and albuquerque new mexico. I met our area
sean are allowed. Thank you very much do even rachel for taking my call. I appreciated for what's up
I feel really kinda bad asking this, because so many people are having a rough go of it and suffering and everything- and yet my question seems so you know your success- does not cause their problems.
Why does she back anyway? What I would like to know, if I can get area objection answered,
question whether I can afford
or surely per judge or get ensure golf club, golf club membership
absolutely. I should not like this
can we have issued by not really. I thought I had a better chance of larger drunk rapporteur you now. These are good with me, I'm good with all level so
I
getting aside.
This was not a moral question. It's just a ratios thing.
If it is a small percentage of your life, that it doesn't matter,
I've moderately, then
Obviously you should do it if you
spend your kids college tuition to join a golf club now being made
don't do that, each it's not that
membership,
in the initiation. Three plus you know getting the card itself would run thirty.
Dollars then, then, really are
three locally,
after that is
roughly five, fifty six hundred much it's pretty red
but for most golf clubs, hopefully today
yeah right,
it realize real nice and it's a real nice,
What do you make a year nude anyway? What he might get your help
hold your tongue.
around one sixty charge and what your net worth.
Who did property and also that in the neighbourhood of one point, five million and you're dead free
The train on mortgage credit card, nothing except monthly bills, map things, just doin,
country club. I think you're, fine
Your find you I ve seen the problem is you're still a taiwan, but you're only brown.
Show that cannot! You know,
you're trying to hide a little bit? You know that's a lot of money for a national outlay and there was a time you know section.
If you go, I canceled an empty street now purchase because they are in britain, the price from ninety nine cents to a dollar, twenty nine, so horrible. I can't believe they would do that to a man like you, but I'm I'm assuming too you're going to use the membership correct, like you enjoy golfing you're going to be using it. It's not like I'm going to sit there and it's a waste using yeah. I'm not going to
I hate look what I got. No absolutely I'm gonna be hacking away sour matt. That's that
Are you like throwing out golf terms that I have no idea what you mean some assuming that the gulf?
It means he's going to dig holes in the golf course that isn't what I would encourage Matt is that you know we talk about here on the show. Somebody often that you live like no one else, and that's what you hear a lot on the show is the sacrifice that people are taking currently to get out of debt.
Build up an emergency fund to get to a point where their heads above water
but then to later to living, give like no one else and so you're, just at the outset that other into the equation and a lot of people struggle in that
are part of the equation because they're, like oh gosh, like yeah,
money feels weirder. I fell wasteful as it's ok, they ask all the same question to ask, and so what I m always looking for trouble
a wise decision, and also to make an emotionally palatable is ratios hub
if a percentage of your world is this and thirty thousand dollars as a percentage of one point, five or as a percentage of one hundred and sixty five thousand or income, as am I completely debt free, it's like buying a biscuit dade.
It's not it's! Not your affect your life! If
take thirty thousand dollars and put in the miller form burn it.
Your life is not going to change you. Ok, that's me
and showed. That means you can afford this
cause? You don't even notice it doesn't affect your giving it doesn't figure. Investing
picture enjoyment alive in its first reading.
You can do with money. You can enjoy it, you can give it and you can invest it and you should always be doing all three
Look at the ratios
An ratios set you free, because I used to be that guy I was at guys had now. I need to drive a car that clean cave
I'm like manage and other people's lives or someone, and that's just a bunch of crap that just poor
I think, is what we call it. Not just you.
in a neighborhood where you run down rich people, you know, and it's like knowing he every guy can hang a caravan can't go. I can tell you who doesn't need it, somebody can't pay for it and
they notice when they buy, but our friend
Fifty million dollars- I surely drove up from my house and three thousand dollar lamborghini. So, but you know,
that's a smaller percentage! He spent on his car of his income than you spend on your car. All of you listening so shut up. It's none yeah, none your business! What he drowned!
and it's not affecting emits a zoo. It's me three or die.
Percent fifteen million? So if you make a hundred fifty thousand that they like mine,
three thousand dollar com
percent of same exact ratios.
so
we need new way. He back shut up. You got.
full time job! Imagine your life geez, this a great job, Matt touchdown, I'm proud of you, go get the dad gum! Golf membership! You're awesome! This is the ramsey shift. The over the there's. The risk of becoming a victim of iD theft has skyrocketed
these steal your info for not only financial fraud but for tax refund in social security, fraud, medical, I D, theft, criminal acts and even home tidal fraud, how did they get your info data breaches? Internet hacks fishing scams malware. The list goes on and on cleaning
the mass is a huge nightmare. So having a protection plan, in my opinion, is just a necessity but spending hundreds of dollar.
Here, where these hyped up protection plans, is just a waste? That's why
Only plan I have ever recommended is through zander insurance. Zander has bundled the cyber tools you need to protect your data with top notch. I d theft, recovery services. If you become a victim, it's the most thorough and cost effective protection on the market, plus they
cover your kids for free call them at eight hundred three five, six, forty two, eighty two or visit zander dot com, the fragile, bruce ramsey personality is my co host today, Kate's in ontario highgate welcome to the ramsey show
hey rachel! Thank you so much for taking my call back. He put you in george back in december, my grandmother passed away and of bringing about a hundred fifty thousand
maybe dollars the public.
ending I'm probably going to receive the money at the end of the month, I'm having a disagreement with my choice without but I'll
with money versus what they would like me to do, but the money I really like to honour both my grandparents.
my parents,
to learn just how? How are you
Oh, I'm thirty! What are your parents
a vote in this.
While they gave me a thousand dollars, my husband, fifty thousand dollars very generously when we bought her daughter hall.
Give it to you, or did they alone it to you and say they get to tell you how to run your life after that no further,
That too, is a very general sweeping swayed until eight until they use. That is the guilt triptych it. So he did patton
continue to fully fund our emergency fund, which is about halfway there and then put the rest towards our mortgage should pay about. Eighty percent of it now there's two different things going on here: okay, you're asking me what to do with it and
we're discussing your parents wanting to tell you what to do with it. Those are two different subjects: okay, okay
it was a while. I'm here is what are your parents wants you to do, because I just heard what you want to do. What are they want you to do my hair,
want me to put it in retirement accounts by canadian equivalence of raw than irae as well as do some.
Repairs. So what's the word of what is
for you keto that that kind of back to
the question of that need to really feel that
of what they're saying or they making you feel so guilty like what why why? Why? Don't you just going there Xanadu learn
making me feel guilty there, really wonderful people who have done a lot on their own and they have really one with money and been great examples to me
I feel I should. But what's your signature is to know you want to do with money is not dumb. Why didn't think so when all its not
I mean it's exactly. We teach. Obviously that is not done, but also
you didn't suggested you go.
You know that somehow you blow the money or your irresponsible with money.
ok, gimme run a parallel for you. Ok,
This is my mind works. I can't help it, but you know wretches low
other Daniels, thirty one right,
dont know how my brother sounds about right, so if, if he and his wife Alison gotta
and fifty thousand dollars- I am very loud- I am
ray opinionated
when it comes to this particular subject on very right. Ok
but I still the chances of me and rachel
me up on this
chances are me, call
Daniel and alison up out of the blue and saying here's what you should do with money that you got from.
Alison's paris or got from whatever other source is zero. Now
They ask.
I'll tell them what I think they should do, but I
I'm going to withhold love if they dont do it.
I'm not gonna role my eyes if they dont do it there, like
people and stuff
If he is, I mean that's how we would function. One hundred percent, yes for sure, but but can't I have for you- do you feel like you're, going to get that
at the role of the eye, the oh, my gosh. I can't believe you did that kate, that that feeling for your appearance or do you think they're going to say? Oh, we
This was a better idea, but you go do like it. Is there that starting point I think
might be disappointed that I baby didn't take their advice and I took Abraham these advised. Instead,
I don't think they would
I don't think it would be a thanksgiving
dinner. Long ears is over you that you're just struggling between our they write, or is this right sorry
where exactly exactly I want you. If I go ahead and make like big dave, ramses stream decision, I wanted to do it in a way and explain it to them in a way that in our country, but I would like to do and I'd like to honor you and honour my grandparents isabel absolutely absolutely so. Let's go
here. She's like dying over here
Pritchett. You want them to be happy with your decision, but your needs.
Their approval just needs to stop
The boundaries registered their walk in all in your yard, with money boots, they need to get back in their yard
when we came across a france that is came across a fence.
you don't be mean about it and I'm not suggestion you be caustic,
Is it really about their adviser? They ramses advice. This is about, like you mean a grown up and stuff, and you get
make your decisions in unison,
you were going to? U gathered up information from several different sources, and then you made the decision on what you wanted to do with your money. It's not like
pick dave ramsay over. I pick my parents know young and you're not doing that. That's not what's goin on! Here!
What's really going on here, as you gathered information for assurances from places, you think that this
Tick method is the vast, ok right.
gathered several pieces.
information from different places and bought a freaking tests.
How in the world, but she did and
we're making in always make fun of her all the time. But and we
joke about it. But the point is I even in a week joke about
as she she did not follow her parental guide when she purchased a car.
That it runs on a battery. Her father would never do that,
again silent, but I do know all we have done is solid
that she loves the car and joke about it
that's all we don't even know me walking over in your boundary, saying you shouldn't, do that. That's a dumb idea! Stop me
stupid. I know I never did any of that now. What now but Kate, I would say when you explain it to your parents, cause you're like yeah. They're, probably gonna, be disappointed, so, yes, the boundaries as a whole issue that shouldn't be disappointed.
Guess appointment, you bought a tesla, make fun of our nobody k. I think too, to accept.
In it to them, though, like that, like that you're quickest way,
to honour
them honour your grandparents, all the language you are using and to help you.
you in your family when you and you your husband when with money the fastest way to get from
at a point b of what you see, is the have what's wise as an emergency fund in a bank or having an emergency fund in the bank paying off any.
debt that you have being able to take some of that and pay off your mortgage. That way, you guys don't have a mortgage payment so that so that you can invest in all that
advice is not necessarily it's not the order. We would do it, but investing that money. It's not like they're, giving you bad advice. You could invest that money and be totally great kate, but but the steps were
or that in explaining to them like hey here's. What I hear time seeing it to be wise to
to that point, and then I will then I will be able to invest and have the margin to invest the wide by John below who disagree with. You really
explaining to him. I think he would just shape
listen appreciate your input, you don't get about! Ok, but if tat
I am thinking of I'm in her shoes, though, and I feel like a oh gosh. You know you,
again this isn't you guys, but unlike if, if my I had saying that to me, she she's
the point, though, that she's,
king there
opinion with such wait for her to just eliminate that. Then
overnight so for her to make this decision, though, in the next three small item assure you honey, you don't get abode.
I will not let you can be nicer about and that honey you're you
Tell your mother, and I were the name of your children before there were born, because you were afraid your mother would roller ok, she's,
because we don't get a vote. It's your freaking kid! You get to name the kid. We hope you don't name a moonbeam, my weight, but but you get to name the kid my mom goes. Oh god,
don't name on anything weird. I tell you the baby names exactly you do you all all you said was a nice way. You don't get a vote, my kid in my body, I name it. You know and that's it
healthy boundary know. But what do you say to Kate who doesn't she's really support of healthy boundaries? She does, but I think
Have you information explaining why she's making this decision is not wrong? It's
I don't I don't get a vote, they don't get a vote is on. They don't need to be provided only us now
making our decision to do the emergency fund and pay off the mortgage, but I think it's too,
really fine relation willing to go into her appearance and say: hey here's why I have chosen to do it. You don't get a vote, but here
Why unexplained that's wrong? You wanted
okay but dialect alone. You didn't explain to your kid that you didn't explain to me why you bought a tesla and I still want to get gas anymore. I know, but I didn't you didn't offer you didn't, owe me an explanation now I don't. But if I was worried about it, I probably wouldn't give you an explanation, but I'm not worried about the care bear. It is Israel's boundaries. That's it you got, it was wonderful. I love it now. The bottom line is that what you want with your money, I would recommend, but we always recommend. We hope you do that and we love you anyway.

the power just north knoxville, very well, rachel's husbands from march will osborne and marvel shoe were from often over that direction.
Welcome to nashville good to have you how much doubt if you paid twenty three thousand very good for you and how long did it take a year one year
and your range of income during that time start out. Seventy six thousand and then was up to eighty one thousand who worked out. That was the twenty three.
My car you're out of our level, the one that you drive, that I'll show you all been married fifteen years next month. Ok,
What was the odd thing that happened a year ago that you should ok
So I started relief about five years ago. My work had a lunch and learn about being financially fit and I'd never considered financial fit as just always physical, so I went to it and I was kind of intrigue and that kind of started the snowball from their so over
next course of couple years? We cannot talk about like we were
to be able to retire. I had put anything in retirement and probably ten to twelve years he was only put in and five percent and just like that, we needed to get our act together.
So I ve been prognosis, nervous and scared and covert came along and then
Providentially, founder radio show started, listen and it took me a while to get to work as we used or credit cards and got her cash back and all that kind of stuff, and so the n rachel's boat notion,
your money was coming out and the wallet, and so I had never use a debit card. I think I had wanted so that was my first debit carpet.
And then, from that moment I was like we can't. I can't put credit cards in that wallet that are so proud of you, the motivation being done inside of it, and it distinguishes whether you have better credit than it destroys the radio bulletin. I love it. That's awesome, yep,
that's amazing, okay, so you're! Not! Then you come back to cannes and yolo. Okay, I'm about to get us weird and what ginza
well
was all gung ho, and this was a little
it's kind of weird ass, it it and just canada. He was like we, we we, you have to have credit cards, everybody has credit cards, we we can't live without him.
a little while before we got turn down a car company, because we didn't have a credit card with us,
ride around this time. So I had to go home, get a credit card to put a deposit,
get the car I'll knock. You gonna need a credit card for emergencies, but in all

paid off with like a year or two in we just
kept doing that and I knew really like inside, like that's, not how I want to live, that's not where I want to be, but we would keep going back to it. So, we'll, like you, work for the bank, yeah
yeah, and I had been listening when I would pick my girls up here.
From school ever lesson from two to four. We would hear the debt free screams, and so I heard one that was almost exactly the same amount that we owed same amount of money, and I was just thinking- there's no excuse that we can do this. That's me,
Amazing and then you guys did it- I mean you said
Ok, we're gonna, do this so
curious can well
you say to the wife listening right now, who wants her husband on board?

It will be forgiven if you have a federal stood alone. So I have to cycles.
once technically little about from corinthian yeah squandered.
Plus large. I promised to pay in bonds,
admire your mouse gone there both gone so one subject
They are non daily statue enough. I want you gotta
the process and we need to get
government and work through it, but please standard
ok Biden came out said I forgave five billion dollars worth of stern loanga. Both crappy did not. The stand.
The procedure with a department of education is if a private college like corinthian college, goes broke the fairy
Government has always cancelled. All
student loans associated with that college live
we ve done that that's a standard
barton didn't do that it was gonna have
or the bible and offers your troubles, an officer errors in office. It's it's the way the
program works in so he wants
like political credit forbidden under squat, so that by the debt is forget,
the stupid college went broke, they ripped you off and you get your dad completely forget,
now you have to go through that process. So yeah mathematically,
not paying any more on these debts and you're going to walk out of this completely but you're going to go through the paperwork and you have to deal with the department of education and the law,
forms and do all the staff so that it goes away because it doesn't just poof disappear, as does do it.
It's a process like a series of paper paper and fill out their series of forms you fill out just like if you become disabled, your federal student loans are forgiven, but you have to go, prove the disability to fill out the paperwork. They don't just automatically. Call you up and go hey. I heard you're disabled forgiven. Now you gotta go you gotta, go make the thing happen: yep yep! This is the ramsay chef. The

If the question comes from Kate and Oregon, my husband and I are on baby step two and are getting closer. We sept three. He has recently started selling things he owns in order to upgrade
to something more expensive. For example, a new
both for hunting. He sold his
bow, but
the new one was over a thousand dollars more than he got from the sale of his old one he's an avid hunter, and I want to support- and I wanna be supportive, but the
we have spent. He has spent the last year on hunting gear alone,
Ex my palms sweaty. He argues that here.
within the rules, since he is selling something he's already had, but the new purchases always implore than what he gets
from the sale, am I over reacting to this
no you're, not overreacting, kate, you, as our still debt, ridden close to babies
three, but until you guys are out of baby step three, you are selling things in order to get the cash from the sale to put towards debt not to go, buy new stuff, so
no, I don't think you're overreacting. I think he's wrong in this. He can still here
the things he has
I still enjoy the hobby, but you don't have to go in and purchase new stuff right now, where you guys are at I wouldn't. I would wait till after baby step three. Then he can upgrades himself if he wants,
He needs to sell stuff in order, but that money towards debt or towards the emergency fund not to buy,
something new. That's the exact correct,
de gaulle answer on what he should be doing. The problem with this
If not what he should be doing. The problem with this is why
acting like a little boy and you're, acting like his mommy.
he needs to man up.
And decide that you and that the two of you as a couple like two freakin adults, are trying to occur
should all together and then
doesn't have to run whining for permission to buy a bow to go. Hunting.
he needs to be participating in the vision of the household.
Once he decides that the two
view- are trying to accomplish a goal. That's worth it then,
It turns around the other way and we start selling guns and hunting gear and
