I took a $25,000 paycut this year & still stayed within a budget. I've also continued paying down my debt, and only have $25k left except for my mortgage! THANK YOU, DAVE!
And as an adult with too much crap in my home as it is, I also don’t need to receive gifts. I don’t need more stuff to store away for years and not use or even be able to display.
As a baby boomer (65 female) if I choose cash gift my choice. I like giving a gift. Plan wedding, reception, and honeymoon on your budget. Do not expect guests to pay for you.
I totally agree on gifts for adults. Last couple years we did an exchange where all 6 adults were in a hat and you buy for one. This year we just decided not to do adult gifts at all cause everyone is tight on cash. We are still making a meal and getting kids one gift per person. Enjoy the REASON for the Season ✝️
A wedding shouldn't be turned into a fundraiser. It's less expensive to have a mid-morning wedding with a brunch reception, than a late afternoon or evening wedding reception with a sit-down multi course dinner, bar, etc.
I had a widow in our free tax office. One thing you can do if you know zero. Is get the last year's tax return you can see the stocks listed. And all his retirement...so it is a good start
I agree with Jade. Most of the time adults don't buy each other spectacular gifts. Save your money for debt. I can't remember the last time an adult or parent (not including spouse) bought me something better than I could've bought myself.
I’m exhausted listening to Allison 🤦🏾♀️ ma’am sometimes you just gotta say NO. she’s taking care of her entire family and her extended family. Geesh 😢
Regarding I think caller five whose husband hasn't been paid since September, do you 100% trust your husband? Could he be getting the pay and using it for something else? Girlfriend on the side, debt he's ashamed of? Just throwing that out there. I had a friend with a similar story and her husband was actually cheating on her. If I were you, I would call the payroll company and inquire myself about the issue. They may say, what issue?
I really don't like to wrap presents. When my kids were younger, I would do what I like to do - bake christmas cookies and make Peanut brittle (or pecan brittle). I would let the kids have sleepvers, and my kids and friends would wrap the presents. The other moms loved the idea and invited my kids over for sleepvers / wrapping parties too. The friends would wrap anything that I didn't want my kids to see. I sent them home with cookies / candy. Everybody was a winner.
Let's just go over the numbers. If the caller contributes 10k to their employer plan and receives a 50 percent match in any given year, that's 15k total contributions. 15k at a 4% return (which is what the caller says it will return) over 10 years is $22k. Alternatively, if they contribute that same 10k to an investment account in growth stocks, if they earn 9% average return over that same 10 years now they have $23k. Just saying maybe they are right.
@@_ELIASThe assumption you make is for a one time investment that you hold just long enough to make your math work. 😂 That’s not how retirement investing works. You do it every year. You get 50% matches on your investment each year plus 4% (I think the caller actually said 5%) on the total investment. You can’t beat that with growth stock mutual funds annually without getting the 50% match. It’s why Dave always says, “Match beats Roth beats traditional”. He’s right! Having said that, I wouldn’t put a penny over the amount needed to max out the match. After he maxes out the match, he should immediately switch to backdoor Roth IRA and max that out in growth stock mutual funds. Then I would go back to the 401(k) and max it out, because one thing you didn’t mention is the tax benefit of the retirement account. The tax savings of having the money grow tax deferred is very significant as opposed to growth stocks in a taxable brokerage. 1) Max out the match. 2) Max out a backdoor Roth IRA in growth stock mutual funds. 3) Max out all other available tax deferred retirement accounts (Roth preferred where available). 4) Taxable brokerage investments in low turnover growth stock funds sensitive to tax considerations.
When not buying gifts for adults and you know they will be at a decent inner I think it is best to discuss it in advance. Like to let them now why and that they don't have to buy you anything as well
First caller is getting over50% return straight off the bat with his employers contribution. He should continue investing up to 6% of his income with his employer and invest whatever is left equity funds.
These two are very repetitive. They should listen to and critique their own performance. They say the same thing several times, particularly Rachel, and then parrot what the other has said. Say it once, say it strongly and straight, and then MOVE ON to other calls!
Did they tell the second caller not to take a 50% match because of suboptimal investment options? If Dave isn’t on, I think I’ll watch “The Money Guys” instead. These ladies offer some questionable financial advice.
Agreed. I do not need gift, my kids would love it. So true. Every year my mother in law give us expensive gift. I am grateful, but oh boy I feel like I can find a better deal of some of the gifts. Or at least be frugal a about it.
My husband was just in a wedding and the bride and groom were only asking for cash. I'm not a fan because I know when I get cash for a gift, a lot of the time it's used to pay bills or something like that. Well, a week after their wedding, they bought a puppy. One of those "designer" breeds that cost thousands. I'm aware that it's theirs to do with as they please but if I'm giving money for a honeymoon, I would like it spent on the honeymoon.
We got half of the honey moon trip to Africa paid by our parents here in Finland. Also our 10 000 $ wedding is probably in a top 20% most expensive in Finland. I don't understand the 50 000 $ weddings in US 😮
1) Don't overlook the match. A 50% bump in basis on day 1 will make up for a ton of yield 2) There's zero chance that any firm has a policy of only bonds. It's probably like a retirement 2050 blend with 8% in bonds. Who cares. You can move it to 100% equities later if youre concerned. 3) Dave throws the baby out with the bathwater on his dislike of bonds. There are many scenarios where they can make sense. Certainly no need to runaway 4) It's very likely that the tax benefits are greater than the minor yield difference
Totally agree. They also missed the main crux of the question. They should have pushed back on the caller when he said his new compensation package no longer allows him to contribute to a 401k. This is strictly against ERISA guidelines for a company to discriminate which employees are allowed to participate in qualified retirement plans based on salary. Secondly, ERISA Section 404(c) rules require a 401k plan to offer a broad range of investment alternatives, usually interpreted as at least three core investment options that vary in risk and return characteristics. Which doesn’t make sense that the caller said they only have 1 bond fund to choose from.
@@bradleyphillips601well, since these two (actually all of the personalities) aren't financial advisors, how could anyone possibly expect them to give accurate, knowledgeable advice regarding retirement benefits? It's crazy to me the number of people who call in thinking these people are experts. In fact, so many will do what RS says to do instead of their own financial advisor.
I don’t like these hosts the way they lead. Dave is best. He should host every show. These two ask callers same questions, it’s like aren’t you listening? They’re so distracted.
Btw, in our household we always give our kids budget for gift. Teaches them how to manage money. We gave chores with points, so things they buy I will remind them it's coming up from their points. It works, they realize the more useless things they bought the more they spend their hard earn money. 😂😂
Thanks for sharing such valuable information! I have a quick question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
Other than Dave or John, Jade just takes over every host and call??????? Every time I see she is on, I laugh and think here we go this will be interesting 🤷
@@nowthatsurban technically none of them are qualified to give financial advice. They just understand the Ramsey plan and can parrot the steps. Dave, Jade and George can talk the talk and have walked the walk 🤷♀️
Hit 240k today. Appreciate you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started with 24k in October 2024
I would really love to know how much work you did put in to get to this stage

Thank you so much
I totally agree with Jade on the buying of gifts for adults. Adults can buy their own stuff.
Me too. This Christmas is out of control. Broke people racking up debt and making you feel bad for not doing the same.
Me too, don’t understand why she’d get hate for that, not like she can make people do it just because she presents it as an idea. 💜
And what a lot of adults want is TIME together, especially parents and grandparents - not more stuff!
And as an adult with too much crap in my home as it is, I also don’t need to receive gifts. I don’t need more stuff to store away for years and not use or even be able to display.
“Any guest showing up to celebrate you is the gift” - so very true. It is a very hard no show for me!
Let's just admit we love Dave Ramsey cos he is brutally honest, sarcastic guy. 😂😂 These 2 are too nice.
Yes I love Dave he gets straight to the point no emotions no time for your feeeeeeeelings
I agree, but after listening for 2 weeks daily (found this show then), it's a nice one breath of fresh air after diving back tomorrow 😅
Aye dont be sleeping on Jade she be going off sometimes when the day is right 😂 she have a couple times and she always keep it straight
Fair be fair to everyone Dave can be unprofessional and rude as hell too many times many many times!!

2nd caller is proof this show is screwed once Dave is gone.
What advice would you have given?
💯 It sounds like they told him not to take a 50% match because of suboptimal investment options. Dumb.

My favorite 2 hosts 🎉
Did someone turn the heat down on the set? It looks like they're freezing.
50:04 her husband was making $11k per month but hadn’t paid the mortgage for almost a year?🥴
We do the kids in our family tree and the rest of the people we play a gift game 1 per person and that is fun.

Maybe the money for the puppy came from another source entirely. Or maybe it's not even your business at all.
In Japan, they are giving money in an envelope!🤢
At weddings, funerals, etc
We got half of the honey moon trip to Africa paid by our parents here in Finland. Also our 10 000 $ wedding is probably in a top 20% most expensive in Finland. I don't understand the 50 000 $ weddings in US 😮
Austin go to the local garages and ask if you can do some work experience if you really want to be a mechanic.
I believe even in a bankruptcy you are allowed nessessities.
Why is Jade wearing a life preserver?
What life preserver?
They blew the 401k question
What would you have said?
1) Don't overlook the match. A 50% bump in basis on day 1 will make up for a ton of yield
