Dave Ramsey didn’t hold back on this one. On The Ramsey Show, a 28-year-old Vegas caller making $200,000 a year admitted she and her husband always carry debt “because we can afford it.” The couple owned an $800,000 home, owed $70K on a HELOC, $70K on cars, $16K on a camper, and still had a $480K mortgage. Yet they’d only been making minimum payments. Ramsey’s response? “Quit being spoiled freaking brats. You make too much money to be this broke.” He urged them to cut all luxuries, keep the house, and throw $10,000 a month at debt to be free in 14 months. Was he too harsh — or exactly right? #DaveRamsey #DebtFree #PersonalFinance 🌐 Want more market-moving insights?
