  • The topic of money is always a charged one. That’s because everyone wants to build wealth in their lives but don’t always know exactly how or have their own internal dialogues keeping them from doing so. But done the right way, money and wealth can be powerful tools for good in your own life and in the world.
    Today, I am joined by one of the most notable people in the world when it comes to the topic of building wealth, Dave Ramsey. And, whether you love or hate him, there is no denying that his message of financial empowerment has reached hundreds of millions of people. Today, Dave and I discuss how money magnifies who you are - good or bad, how to best get a hesitant wife on board with tightening up the finances, where building businesses falls into the wealth equation, how cultural perspectives shape our money decisions, and the step-by-step guide to building your way to wealth.
    SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:
    * The point of wealth
    * Vilifying success and blaming others
    * Common sense and building wealth
    * Are you anger-based or fear-based
    * Building a business
    * Behavior is the most important element of personal finance
    * Addressing finances as a couple
    * There is a reason that its unusual for people to be wealthy
    * Mistakes that people make on their way to wealth
    * You need a bigger why than “more stuff”

Still got a mortgage but putting extra on it to pay it off 10 years early hows that Michler! BAM so I got about 18 years left but hey Ramsey said in like the first quarter of the video it takes that amount with the snowball but its like a guarantee probably can't put 15% in my 401 until that happens.

    This podcast could go either way pretty quick. Dave is great when it comes to getting people who are awful at personal finance out of debt. However, he gives terrible advice after that. Not using credit cards and paying cash for everything, buying expensive mutual funds etc.
    I've listened to Dave's show many times and there was one episode that really stood out so much that I could no longer listen or take him seriously anymore. A gentlemen called in and said he felt so strongly that god was telling him to sell his house and use the money to help the less fortunate. The gentlemen mentioned he has 1 child who wasn't yet in high school. Dave eventually said if you feel that strongly about it that you should go ahead and sell the house. I nearly tripped over my jaw because it was on the floor. Couldn't believe he said that. Haven't listened to him since that.

    Great interview but it's just that -- an interview. While he touches on some of the steps this was not a step by step guide to building wealth. Yet another misleading title to capture views. This was a good introduction to a wealth building mindset and principles. Would like to see this a continuing series to truly be a step by step guide to building wealth.

    Americans are good at vilifying those who stick out?! What?! You have not been to literally any other country in the world? Why do think we immigrants come here, man? It’s precisely the opposite. While there’s some of that jealousy, which is part of our human communitarian nature, America is the place where successful people are celebrated.

    No the economy categorically is cake not candles. Fact. The shifting of huge amounts of wealth to the 1% or 0.1% categorically leaves less cake, not fewer candles, for the rest of us. Read your Piketty (Capital in the 21st century) before using the candle metaphor. On baby steps, great, more power to you. On whole economies, categorically wrong. Look in the data.

    Man he was reading my mail! 80% behavior. I guess I actually DO have to be accountable, responsible, and consistent.
    I wish he would’ve expounded more on his comment about trust fund babies toward the end of the video. Did he mean that they all get a trust fund so no choice in that or that there is not trust fund so earn it yourself (and again, no choice)? I doubt he would not pass on the accumulated wealth but I would’ve liked more of an explanation of that comment.

    Baby steps based on largest survey of self made millionares and biblical principles. Many so called "experts" today love to play with debt rather than not having debt. Whereas in reality, "borrower is servant to the lender".

    Ah the beauty of ignoring externalities and praising those who are wealthy without question. He states there are good and bad in both the wealthy and the poor categories and then lambastes anyone who would question how SOME people acquired wealth. His lack of appreciation for how unregulated and immoral the current form capitalism has taken is galling.
    There is a balance…and Dave is a good guide to helping people create financial freedom, but I don’t want him making financial regulations when he says a criminal can’t prosper over 30 years…

      @Prey R There needs to be more nuance when any speaker makes two generalizations that are contradictory and in fact lead to the biggest problem I see with people who say “stop attacking the wealthy”.
      I am on my own way to building wealth, but I have dealt with many scoundrels on the way up including entire businesses predicated on producing wealth through deceit and taking advantage of our fellow man. I have not yet seen the hate he claims there is for the wealthy, but appropriate hate for people who hide from wealth gotten by doing bad things. A truly godly and honest business I have never seen fail “because people hated the wealth”.

    • @JamesDecker7

      @Prey R please re-read Deuteronomy 23, Leviticus 25, ……and plenty of other places that warn of usury and other behaviors that IMHO are allowed and seen as viable by the crooked. Just because the law allows you to pay people less money than it takes to pay for a place to sleep does NOT make it righteous. If you can’t run a business by taking care of people so they don’t need government assistance then you are a blight.
      I would agree businesses do tend to move away from overly onerous taxes. But some of that movement has severe downsides (supply chain?). And the tax dodges that the wealthy have are INSANE. Others in my area of expertise are already advising me about using Tax dodges I need at least 200k to attempt but that reap huge “benefits” legally.
      I truly believe we need a simplified tax on exchanged money and a total removal of donations from politics (a candidate can spend for their campaign communications the average salary of a worker in that state for 1 year maybe) with abolition of all other advertising for politicians. Let their deeds speak for them. It would allow laws that focus on taxes going to support the things important for what you describe (for me it is better transportation routes so products can be delivered in a timely manner).

    Love Dave Ramsey but his definition of socialism is incorrect. Socialism pertains to who owns the means of production, and extracts the wealth from those means. It doesn't mean absolute equality regardless of effort and endeavor, which is how he portrays it.

Dead wrong as the little man if I want to start an excavation company I need a truck trailer backhoe/skid steer commercial insurance ect that’s over $100,000 dollars just to start and nobody can pull that out of nowhere only way is take out a loan and Dave preaches against that

      No, Caleb, you are wrong! You don't start an excavation company by digging yourself a $100,000.00 hole before ever beginning your business. First, you fill in all of the holes in your life, get the bills paid, get an emergency fund, and then you eat beans and rice, rice and beans, while you build your company all the way from a hand shovel on up. In the process, you will learn how to run that company; what works and what doesn't. You will grow as your business grows.
      I own 15 rental properties in working class neighborhoods. Nice 3 or 4 bedroom houses. All rented at top end of the market. All were bought for cash. Today, the rents go into a savings fund until there is enough cash in there to buy another house. I started with $50,000.00 in student debt and have baby-stepped my way to being a multi-millionaire. Dave Ramsey is right on!! Thank you, Dave.

    The real question about peddling a poverty mentality is this: who is benefitting from it?

  • @keithbales8242
    @keithbales8242 Před rokem

    Why are approximately 42 million Americans, or 13% of the population living below the poverty line if times have never been better for the little man to get ahead? Is it possible that (currently worsening) poverty is built in to the current form of capitalism?
