F the insurance company. She has 4 kids, 2 of which will still need to be supported for a long time. If this were a single person, it wouldn’t be that big of a deal because she’s still young enough to be working. But there’s 4 kids, a lot of expenses, and they just cut out the payments…they should be ashamed
@@Gianni117 pay attention!!! She lived the good life because us men put our life and limb on the line for a paycheck. Now she's 40 and has to work l. I can count 3 able bodies that could make a $600 mortgage. I was orphaned, life goes on
Interesting how y'all can actually have SYMPATHY when you HEAR people's actual stories.. Typically y'all make sweeping statements by telling people to bootstrap themselves and stop being lazy.... If only this same grace is given to everyone you don't know/hear about
I wish they would too. She's so overwhelmed. I think the husband must have done a lot of money budgeting because she started to say she wasn't good at it but he cut her off because that isn't the point right now. One step at a time
I’ve listened to maybe hundreds and hundreds of these call and none made me cry until this one. Sometimes we need to lean on our community. Thank you Dave for helping. I would love to donate something small to assist her on rebuilding her life. Dave, I don’t know if you can pass this forward but please see if you can? Love your show, debt free because of your teachings.
A testament to her husband for getting them in a spot where they have nearly 300k in equity in their 30s.....this lady doesnt realize how good of a position he left her in.... she's gonna get a crash course in finances and be just fine......good luck to her and the kiddos
this is her retirement right there and her own social or his and any job she can keep, plus the older kids will probably help too or at least start a life of their own.
She owes 65k on the house, have a 600 monthly payment, is behind $3600 and wants to foreclosure the house?! Man..The mortgage company could’ve sort something out. Glad she called Dave.
@@wahinepaddler4 Mortgage co wants the house since they'd get to profit! She's 5 mos behind so $3K + fees etc. They see a $200K+ profit if they get to foreclose.
The low balance on the loan is exactly why they targeted her. With the house worth over $300K and only $65K owed, that's over $200K of equity available for them to steal. They could sell it dirt cheap to a real estate company owned by one of their friends, and give the woman little or nothing from the sale.
@megalodon1726 the #1 Flaw I Capitalism........GREED.....Make a buck at all costs (moral/ethical/legal). Capitalism has a few e great factors, but the Flaws outweigh those substantially. The greedy can never have enough money.....their soul is a bottomless pit for money and power.
@@megalodon1726 They can't actually steal the $200K other equity, but they can certainly steal a chunk of it as part of the foreclosure proceedings. Additional fees and additional interest and a whole slew of additional costs tacked on.
I cried so much for this lady, I lost my 39yr old husband a year after I lost my dad. I can feel her pain and the children left behind. Thanks Dave for being there for her!
@@elefantrisingdid you listen to the call? He’s having his team take over communication with the bank to make sure she isn’t foreclosed on. She’s getting free financial coaching sessions so she can invest. She’s getting free mental health counseling. Dave said he would “take care” of her not having a car. I’m sure they got her one. Listen to the whole call first. And I hate to judge but I bet I could guess how much you’ve done to help people vs how much the Ramsey org has….
The scriptures command us to take care of widows and orphans. I love that Dave leads us all as an example. This is why I watch every Dave Ramsey video.
This call made me cry. The way Dave spoke to her was amazing. He is so good at talking through situations like this with people. It’s so inspirational!
Dave made an update on his show recently. He said there was a lot of outpouring from the Ramsey community for this caller. His company and workers are going to help her out of this mess and said she will NOT lose her house. When Dave says that you know he means business!
I feel for her. No life insurance. Workman's comp refusing to pay a death benefit. It sucks. So many ways she can save that house. The mortgage company is trying to steal her equity. She needs financial guidance and a good but low cost attorney. Some shady doings going on here. As a minimum she should be able to do a refinance on the loan. She has a ton of equity. First she needs to get everything in her name, then she can get financial help. Her job will be sufficient to get her thru. Her 20 yr old also needs to step up.if possible. Every little bit will help keep a roof over their heads.
This call is why I started a term life insurance worth half a million before 25. I climb ladders for my business I own. If I fell and died, I'll know the last thing I did was take care of my family. Bless this woman. I thought of my wife in her shoes and it broke my heart.
I was in tears for this woman! Number 1 she needs God in her life. I seen so much compassion from Dave! She got guidance and direction and help with leaving her pride aside. Lord bless her and bless the Ramsey Show!
This is why we all need to get our financial act together. What if more of us were able to just make these problems go away for widows in our towns and cities? Change happens when we change.
I can relate, lost my husband in 2021 and it's the scariest feeling. The entire well being of your household rest on your shoulders alone. Praying for her.
I'm glad Dave was the one to get this call. George or Ken would have told her to get on a detailed budget and cut up her credit cards. Great call. Hang in there Sarah! 🙏
Dave thank you so so much for helping this lady. When she said she only owes $64,000 on a house with $311,000 of equity I immediately thought how devastating for her to lose that much equity. She could sale quickly and buy another house cash plus have enough to buy another car.
@@redmanfreeman3391 ? Why would the bank give you the equity of your home? Does the bank actually sell the house and cut you a check for the difference?
@@redmanfreeman3391When a bank forecloses on a home, it’s becomes a REO on its balance sheet, and those are highly scrutinized by its Regulators. Therefore banks seek to unload the property as fast as possible and at whatever price they can find. They have no obligation or fiduciary responsibility to find the best price, so long as they are made whole* on the loan. So, long story short, the bank doesn’t give two iotas about your equity once they foreclose.
Love the community at RS can wrap their arms around and not only provide financial but the emotional support this widowed mother desperately needed 💕 Would LOVE to see the outcome, better yet how they went after the mortgage company, that grin was dangerous!
I watched the video once, and then I kept watching it over and over again. IMO, the best video out there that gives hope. Dear Mr. Ramsey Sir - just so you know, I have followed you as I would have followed my dad if he was still alive. I have witnessed you helping many over the years, but this one takes the crown. It makes my teeth hurt when a bank threatens a widow, mother of 4 kiddos with foreclosure for being late on payment by 6 months?! She should thank her lucky star that she had the courage to call you, even better since she is a resident of the Nashville area. I saw in Dave the protective dad - fierce & gentle at the same time. You made my day Sir, you truly made my day...
I like to watch these videos while I'm working and I did not expect to be crying at my desk today. What a rollercoaster of emotions this whole call and response was. Wow.
Life happens. When my brother died of cancer my other brother was living with him helping him. He had no where else to live and was becoming disabled. It took me a lot of time to unravel the situation because my dead brother had never updated his Will. The house had slipped into foreclosure. My self and our sister got it out of foreclosure and paid it off. Really important to have family and friends. Honestly 3000 is not that much money. I have helped widows before in similar situations. There are Godly people everywhere. If you need help ask God to send one to you. Thanks Dave for helping this lady and her children. Our Father is pleased.
I just wanted to say thank you to Dave and his entire crew. I love all the advice and the way you help people. Well done. As far as this particular story, it's so heartbreaking. Many people can relate.
This is where you see the gift of Dave’s experience in these calls. We have seen him 1,000 times just crack down on people but in this he comforts her and helps her finally have one semblance of peace that she is not alone. He knew precisely where to meet her and how to help her in ways that many of the others simply wouldn’t be prepared for yet. And that’s his mastery in this is having the right touch and the experience and wisdom of how to handle these varying calls. And as much as people want to rag on some others, and I get that becsuse some of the others can really be brash, we also have to remember Dave has built this ability over 30 years of these calls which absolutely needs to always be remembered when comparing any of these things. The way Dave handled calls 20 years ago I can guarantee differs a lot from now. Even from around 10 years ago when I listened to him much more consistently his touch has evolved a ton.
My heart goes out to her. I lost my husband as well, and it is tough. I'm so glad Dave took this call and they're going to help her. I pray God blesses this Mom and her kids greatly and blesses Dave and his people for helping her. Just goes to show there is good in the world ❤
This is what we are supposed to do!! Help each other!!! Especially in this sad situation!! 🙏🙏 Life is going to get better, Sarah! One day at a time!! 🌞
My mom lost my dad to gun violence in 1999 , 4 months later lost her mom to a stroke , it was four of us , 11,9,5,3. There were days she would lock herself in the restroom and cry and I would hear it. She managed , I know this lady can too but she has to step it up.
This was the best call ever on the Ramsey show. If there's ever anyone who called in who deserves a break, its that woman & I'm sure the team will help her fix this.
I am so glad I tuned in to this. I had a ton of help that I reached out for about 20 years ago. It was so tough to leave my ex with three kids and no money but it was so worth it. Thanks for helping this lady out, whoever she is I hope she gets through and has positive days ahead. An amazing call !!
I feel for her. I lost my husband and not only had to raise our children , but had to take care of everything on my own. Thankfully we were good with our money, planned well for the future and we have doing well. I hope she will be ok.
Can we have a follow up video on what Dave’s smile is all about? Meanwhile, I am so sorry to hear all the loss she suffered. Hoping Dave’s team will be able to shoulder all the problems for a while so that she can recovers from these.
I think we all know what Dave's smile is about, he's going to make them wish they'd never placed Sarah's home in foreclosure, my God with only $64k left!! Really??!! She made the right call today, I pray she gets the help she so needs both financial and a community around her to not let her or her children walk through grief on their own! God Bless her and her family!!
I think they are kind of going thru standard operating procedures for a foreclosure. BAM! She's not on the mortgage? But shes on the deed. So they have no paperwork saying she owes them but she has paperwork saying she owns it. Complicated.
This one had me in tears. When I lost my hubby nine years ago, one of the few things for which I was grateful is that we both got to see our children grown. There are times I grumble aloud, but a story like this humbles me. When Dave said, "You will NOT lose your home," he became one of the heroes this caller truly needs.
Thanks Ramsey show for being the hands and feet of Jesus! Your empathy and compassion towards this woman can literally be felt. I believe we can do so much more for our communities when we as individuals stay out of debt, for then we can give and live like no one else just as the Ramsey Show is doing. Thanks again Dave and Dr. John for your kind and comforting words.
Such a heartbreaking call ..so sorry for what has happened..very sensitively and skilfully handled by Dave and John 👏👏 I am praying for this lady and her kids 🙏🙏🙏
Roofing is such a brutal job. Not only is it tough to do on a good but hot day. But when accidents occur they are always devastating. I know a guy who was a roofer who fell and hurt his head in his 50s or late 40s and he's pretty much done as an adult and under the care of his own mom.
Shit safety is usually the problem, no harness on when you’re working at 30ft is just dumb & his company should be held liable. They all just want the job done fast and who cares if someone dies as long as profits are made!
Just saw this and it made me cry my heart goes out to Sara and hope that she is doing better. So sorry for her loss and pray that she gets through this with the Lord's help.
This right here is what it feels like to “give outrageously generous”. ❤️ I wish I could help this sweet lady. I hope things turn around for her and her family. God bless her and her family.
I have a feeling that Dave wrote the $3,000 check. This mortgage company is taking advantage of a bad situation! Get her refinanced Dave and on her feet. I was crying! And I'm sure Dave will set her up with a lawyer. Crazy that she's using a lawyer that is with WORKMAN COMP!
PRAISE GOD! Im so glad God used Ramsey to help this woman and the two children in the house! Do we have an update on this woman? Its been a year. Thanks!
Dave, Thank you, thank you, thank you! I can’t thank you enough on behalf of the caller. That’s the heart of Christ we’ve all been called to emulate. Thanks again Dave! @Sarah, God bless you.
Dave, you are incredible. I wish you the best Sarah and trust me you’re already doing it the right way and your kids are witnessing strength and hard work despite the circumstances. That’s the best lesson my mom taught me when she raised my brother and I all on her own. Stay strong and remember to smile. ❤
As soon as you know you can't afford your home any longer or a bank starts to threaten you then it's best to find a realtor, ibuyer, or investor and sell your house as soon as possible before they forclose on it. You're going to get less than what the house is worth, but you'll at least have $80k to $100k in your hand as either reserves and a down payment down the line for a home or another down payment and in her case she could qualify for FHA. Fighting a big lender on a foreclosure is a nightmare.
To any roofers out there, the OSHA fall harnesses suck but they’ll save your life. They’re $120 or so at Home Depot. If you fall with harness on and the harness is bolted to the roof, you never hit the ground.
I heard this call on the day it aired. I was so happy that Dave gave her wrap around services. Today, August 7th, he gave an update. Thank you, Dave for helping her. You have helped countless people over the last 30 years.
@@indianatime In my response, I said, "Today, August 7th." It was today's show. If I am remembering correctly, it was discussed at or near the beginning of the show. Many people wanted to donate to the woman's cause. Dave suggested they look to help someone in or near their own communities. Dave knew he had nice listeners!
This is someone who truly deserves a hand up. I feel for her so much.
I agree. Hugs to her.
F the insurance company. She has 4 kids, 2 of which will still need to be supported for a long time. If this were a single person, it wouldn’t be that big of a deal because she’s still young enough to be working.

This is an amazing call. I'm so happy that Dave took this call. Dave sounded like he was going to cry with her. Dave, this is why you do what you do.
I almost cried with her, this was a tough call.
This was the saddest call I’ve heard.
God bless you and your family. Thank you, David, for helping her, Thank you ❤
She's way too close to having the house paid off to lose it.

Back on her feet? Why hasn’t she tried in the last 4 years? She should have a job.
When Dave told her to breath, I teared up. If Dave tells you it's not going to happen, it's not going to happen! So touching.
This is the first video of Dave Ramsey that I've cried. He truly has a compassionate heart for widows. True man of God.
This is the “why” for Dave Ramsey. There is nothing more rewarding than to be able to help people in these types of crises!! God Bless Dave!!!🙏🏻
That closing statement from Dave "they think they're in control of this, they're not" with a big smile was awesome 😂
that was Dave's way of saying "I'm gonna have some fun with some F&%$ing bank managers"
That's Dave going "the bullies are about to get bullied today and I can't wait to hear the wind come out of their sails"
The scriptures command us to take care of widows and orphans. I love that Dave leads us all as an example. This is why I watch every Dave Ramsey video.
Facing everything alone is so heartbreaking with small children. I will keep her and her family in my prayers. Thank you Dave for helping her ❤

This was one of my favorite stories last week. A foreclosure over $3,000? Not happening if Dave gets involved.
It’s nonsense, it’s less than she makes in a month on her job alone, plus all this other income she’s got. This is a trivial problem to fix up.
I was in tears for this woman! Number 1 she needs God in her life. I seen so much compassion from Dave! She got guidance and direction and help with leaving her pride aside. Lord bless her and bless the Ramsey Show!

Ugh this call broke my heart. I m so happy Dave and Dr. D took this call . Prayers to her and her family.
My heart goes out to her. I lost my husband as well, and it is tough. I'm so glad Dave took this call and they're going to help her. I pray God blesses this Mom and her kids greatly and blesses Dave and his people for helping her. Just goes to show there is good in the world ❤
All the years listening to DR and this is the first time I've heard him actually offer a handout to some. "It's taken care of" really hit home
He just proves he's better than even he thinks he deserves.
This is my favorite call, thank you Dave for the work you are doing all to the glory of God!
This was really hard. Poor lady. Gosh darn this got me. Couldn’t imagine losing my spouse with 4 KIDS.
Dave Ramsey - THANK YOU & God bless you
I can totally relate to her pain and frustration, may god bless her and thank you Dave Ramsey for all you do.❤
Dave is amazing; he has so much compassion for people and really goes above and beyond.
This is what we are supposed to do!! Help each other!!! Especially in this sad situation!! 🙏🙏 Life is going to get better, Sarah! One day at a time!! 🌞
I feel so sad for this woman, and I'm glad Dave did everything he could for her! That is awesome
My mom lost my dad to gun violence in 1999 , 4 months later lost her mom to a stroke , it was four of us , 11,9,5,3. There were days she would lock herself in the restroom and cry and I would hear it. She managed , I know this lady can too but she has to step it up.
I’m sorry that just sad
This was the best call ever on the Ramsey show. If there's ever anyone who called in who deserves a break, its that woman & I'm sure the team will help her fix this.
I am so glad I tuned in to this. I had a ton of help that I reached out for about 20 years ago. It was so tough to leave my ex with three kids and no money but it was so worth it.
Thanks for helping this lady out, whoever she is I hope she gets through and has positive days ahead. An amazing call !!
It was amazing to see how Dave took this call...you just know this lady's situation will be taken care of just by the look on his face.
I feel for her. I lost my husband and not only had to raise our children , but had to take care of everything on my own. Thankfully we were good with our money, planned well for the future and we have doing well. I hope she will be ok.
Can we have a follow up video on what Dave’s smile is all about? Meanwhile, I am so sorry to hear all the loss she suffered. Hoping Dave’s team will be able to shoulder all the problems for a while so that she can recovers from these.
I think we all know what Dave's smile is about, he's going to make them wish they'd never placed Sarah's home in foreclosure, my God with only $64k left!! Really??!!
She made the right call today, I pray she gets the help she so needs both financial and a community around her to not let her or her children walk through grief on their own! God Bless her and her family!!
It’s clear what it’s about.
I think it has something to do with the lender trying to foreclose on a deceased person.
I think they are kind of going thru standard operating procedures for a foreclosure. BAM! She's not on the mortgage? But shes on the deed. So they have no paperwork saying she owes them but she has paperwork saying she owns it. Complicated.
This one had me in tears. When I lost my hubby nine years ago, one of the few things for which I was grateful is that we both got to see our children grown. There are times I grumble aloud, but a story like this humbles me. When Dave said, "You will NOT lose your home," he became one of the heroes this caller truly needs.
Thanks Ramsey show for being the hands and feet of Jesus! Your empathy and compassion towards this woman can literally be felt.
I believe we can do so much more for our communities when we as individuals stay out of debt, for then we can give and live like no one else just as the Ramsey Show is doing. Thanks again Dave and Dr. John for your kind and comforting words.
What a strong and beautiful lady. Like others, I cried along with her. So glad she called in so that fast help is coming her way.
Hello, let's help you on your debt and we give ideas of earning income.
Such a heartbreaking call ..so sorry for what has happened..very sensitively and skilfully handled by Dave and John 👏👏 I am praying for this lady and her kids 🙏🙏🙏
I’m glad she had this strength to reach out.
Roofing is such a brutal job. Not only is it tough to do on a good but hot day. But when accidents occur they are always devastating. I know a guy who was a roofer who fell and hurt his head in his 50s or late 40s and he's pretty much done as an adult and under the care of his own mom.
Shit safety is usually the problem, no harness on when you’re working at 30ft is just dumb & his company should be held liable. They all just want the job done fast and who cares if someone dies as long as profits are made!
Uncle Dave does what Uncle Dave does best! Kudos to Dave and the team!
Just saw this and it made me cry my heart goes out to Sara and hope that she is doing better. So sorry for her loss and pray that she gets through this with the Lord's help.
This right here is what it feels like to “give outrageously generous”. ❤️ I wish I could help this sweet lady. I hope things turn around for her and her family. God bless her and her family.
This poor lady. Heartbreaking story.
My heart is breaking for this woman!!!
wow this really puts life in perspective. Could never imagine having to do with a situation like this, god speed Sarah.
I’m praying for this caller! This is an awful situation.
I have a feeling that Dave wrote the $3,000 check. This mortgage company is taking advantage of a bad situation! Get her refinanced Dave and on her feet. I was crying! And I'm sure Dave will set her up with a lawyer. Crazy that she's using a lawyer that is with WORKMAN COMP!
Lol no
I thought the same. And the fact that her mortgage is only $600.00. She'll be just fine.
Yep, I'm sure they reached out to her making her believe they were there to help her. In all her grief you can't blame her for not questioning it!
Hahaha, Ramsey wouldn't write a check for his own kids if they were ransomed. Not a chance.
@@jmorris023 It looks good. I think 3000 isn't much for him. Good publicity and good for soul
God bless the Ramsay team for helping her!! She will prevail.
PRAISE GOD! Im so glad God used Ramsey to help this woman and the two children in the house! Do we have an update on this woman? Its been a year. Thanks!
Dave, Thank you, thank you, thank you! I can’t thank you enough on behalf of the caller. That’s the heart of Christ we’ve all been called to emulate. Thanks again Dave! @Sarah, God bless you.
I scanned through hundreds of comments on this video and landed on yours. It’s a message for me from Jesus. I’m crying as I type this. Wow! ❤
Best call I’ve watched so far, it had me in tears. Well done Dave you were great. I hope the lady is okay now
Dave, you are incredible.
I wish you the best Sarah and trust me you’re already doing it the right way and your kids are witnessing strength and hard work despite the circumstances. That’s the best lesson my mom taught me when she raised my brother and I all on her own. Stay strong and remember to smile. ❤
Dave God Bless you! You SAVED this poor woman and her children. Thank you!!
As soon as you know you can't afford your home any longer or a bank starts to threaten you then it's best to find a realtor, ibuyer, or investor and sell your house as soon as possible before they forclose on it. You're going to get less than what the house is worth, but you'll at least have $80k to $100k in your hand as either reserves and a down payment down the line for a home or another down payment and in her case she could qualify for FHA. Fighting a big lender on a foreclosure is a nightmare.
Thank goodness for Dave Ramsey! Praying for her and her family. Thank you for helping this family.
This was so sad. Dave and team you guys are awesome. Live like no one else so you can live like no one else. Practicing what he preaches
I love listening to your show on my way to work but this episode has got me almost to tears. My heart reaches out to this poor lady so bad
To any roofers out there, the OSHA fall harnesses suck but they’ll save your life. They’re $120 or so at Home Depot. If you fall with harness on and the harness is bolted to the roof, you never hit the ground.
Harness saved my life at 17!! I don’t know why people just use it
As a new dad this hits me hard. Life can change so quickly. Always tell your family you love them.
Please make sure you have life insurance for just in case. Hugs!
I went thru something like this. Couldn't breath. Got thru it. I feel her pain.
So glad that Dave was hosting the show when she called. Dave, you are one top shelf guy! Thank you for helping her and her kids!
Oh my heart hurts for this lady. So glad she has the Ramsey family nearby to help her figure it out. Good bless this woman and her family.
Prayers up for her family. That accident is just sad.
Everyone can feel her pain! Don't know you, sister Sarah, but we love ya, and you and your family will be in our prayers
I heard this call on the day it aired. I was so happy that Dave gave her wrap around services. Today, August 7th, he gave an update. Thank you, Dave for helping her. You have helped countless people over the last 30 years.
What was the update / do you have a link to it?
@@indianatime In my response, I said, "Today, August 7th." It was today's show. If I am remembering correctly, it was discussed at or near the beginning of the show. Many people wanted to donate to the woman's cause. Dave suggested they look to help someone in or near their own communities. Dave knew he had nice listeners!
