“It’s actually hard to keep my millions,” is never going to get an ounce of sympathy from me, man.
People out here every single day choosing between gas in the car and milk in the fridge, I can’t stand seeing this cry me a river bit from pro athletes every single offseason.
“When people hear 5 years/$50mil they think you got $50 million sitting in the bank”
It’ll never not be funny to me hearing black athletes talk about their contracts. Literally no one thinks they just get given the contract amount up front; that’s what HE thought lmao
How pro athletes look at you when you tell them that if they don't buy 6 super cars, 10k square foot houses in multiple cities and have multiple kids with women they don't care about they can be rich for eternity
American family bought a home for $138,000.
After the first year they had sent the bank $9,286.
After interest, taxes, and insurance, ONLY $952 went toward the loan.
Sad how many Americans don’t know anything about interest or how it works until it’s too late.
The dumbest pro athlete: yea man alot of people don't know how easy it is to run out of money even on a 100 million dollar contract, the 2 houses, 12 cars and 600,000 dollars worth of clothes I buy every year just ain't enough
Dave Ramsey says: “I don’t borrow money, you heard the rumor, yeah.”
“We made $300 million at Ramsey this year.”
“I do everything backwards. And so I met him [God] on the way up, got to know him on the way down.”
“God’s been good to me.”
“Are you a millionaire or a billionaire? Probably a billionaire, yeah.”
Caller: “I’ve been with my now-wife for 10 years and we just got married. She’s going to graduate dental school in May and she’s going to be bringing in about $750,000 in student loans. We also have about $40,000 in consumer debt, and I’m just struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel.”
Dave Ramsey: “You have no idea what you just said. That is a devastating situation you’re in.”
“This isn’t just a little bit of debt; this is a massive, life-altering mistake. She paid double what she should have for that degree.. she got screwed.”
“You are in a real mess. If you will live like absolute poor people and lean into your combined high income, you can pay this off in about three years. If you try to live like a ‘normal’ dentist, you will be in this hole for the next two decades.”
Dave Ramsey and John Delony got pretty frustrated when they found out that a caller's family is taking advantage of him.
John Delony: What do they make?
Caller: Oh gosh, I don't know.
Dave Ramsey: Um, you have a business degree? Yes, you do. Yeah. You know.
Caller: I would say over a million a year.
John Delony: So, I'm going to say this. Um, and it's not going to be pretty, but I'm getting frustrated. Your parents are taking advantage of you. This is strange. It's not cool. It's disrespectful.
Caller: Yeah. Y'all sound like my wife.
Speaker 1: It's disrespectful. And what's happening is it's pitting a relationship. If they can just cut you a $45,000 check to wipe your, it’s a power play, man. That's a move. And you smelled the move.
