@daveramsey: What would your life look like if you didn’t have any payments? No car payment. No credit card payment. No student loan payment. You’d have choices again. You could change jobs. Build wealth. Give more. Breathe a little easier. That’s why getting out of debt matters. It’s not just about the math. It’s about getting your income back. Start by giving every dollar a name before the month begins with @EveryDollar, then follow the 7 Baby Steps and stop sending your paycheck to everybody else. Proverbs says the borrower is slave to the lender. It’s time to take back control of your life.
Single mother to a child with Autism and ADHD, limited to working only when she is in school(9-3:30), can’t find a job making more than $2000 a month, our rent is $1,000 plus utilities, and our car has 197,000 miles on it….so please tell me how to take control 😭🌹🙏

I can’t make enough to buy food. I have 40.00 a week for a food budget. Beans, rice, potatoes, cabbage for two years now. That 40.00 includes toilet paper and necessities. No money to put back, no car payment. Driving a 1999 Chevy with no air conditioning in Texas. So Dave how in the hell do you put back 770.00????

But Dave how can I be cool in my corvette at 70 when everyone else that would be my age would have one. But Dave what if you had a corvette in your 20s? I would rather be happy while I’m young and able to enjoy life than have money when I’m 70 and can no longer do the things I love

Became completely debt free in our late 40’s. It’s amazing. Planning on retiring at 57 and 56.

3 more car payments, student loans paid, haven't had a credit card for over 20 years, had no medical until cancer hit me 3 years ago and now have 50k that I am paying on, my only other bills are rent (includes electric, wifi, trash and water) cell phone, car insurance and a storage unit that I am slowly going thru and selling things I no longer need. Work a 40 hour a week job, and a part time catering job that is about 30 hours a month. Every extra cent goes towards medical right now. I have a 401k, IRA and money market that I have set up a certain amount direct deposited every paycheck so I never see it. I budget every penny and if I get a little over time it goes into my savings/fun money account which I use mostly for craft supplies that I will occasionally sell (most are gifts) I am hoping to retire in a year and half at 62. I live very frugally and think about every purchase, is it a need or a want. Saved all my change and $1 bills for year to buy my Harley and had $3800 as down payment on it, paid extra every month and paid a 5 year loan off in 2 years. It is 19 years old and still running like the day I got her.
