  • My hi water mark for credit cards was $27,000. It took me years to pay off. It was a war. Now it’s zero and cut up. Now I have $40k in savings and zero debt and my house paid off. Dave has helped me sooo much.

    • You motivate me. I have 25k in student loans, 1,600 of credit card debt (still in the intro period 0% APR), and owe about 3,800 on my car still which I would’ve paid off 2 months ago if I didn’t have a car accident that cost me 2,000 out of nowhere

Most people are just victims of situations they had no control over and had nowhere else to turn to put food on the table. It’s not all black and white like Ramsey wants his listeners to believe. And no, you don’t have to give up going out to eat…..just learn what resteraunts you can afford. Ruth Chris steak on a Burger King budget is not going to work. But denying yourself everything because you think getting out of credit card debt is going to make you happy is a joke. It’s not the credit card debt that’s the problem, it’s deeper.

I had my daughter when I was 20 and in college so I racked up a good amount of cc debt in school cuz I couldn’t work with my daughter and then came out with 40k in student loans. I’ve had a job for 5 years now and my income has steadily risen but where I live rent is ridiculous, gas is insane, I didn’t have a down payment for a car but I needed it to work so I leased which is expensive. I don’t buy make up or jewelry rarely get my nails and hair done or anything like that but it seems like every month there’s some bill to be paid or something that needs to be bought. My parents had to move across the country for work so there’s less help from them and they’re in their 60s and unable to retire. The cycle of poverty is real and very hard to get out of it. Doesn’t help the more you make the more the government just takes from you smh.

  • This is where I was at the end of 2020. It is now January 2024 and it's now down to $6,300! It all started with preparing a spreadsheet, and then looking for ways to tighten it. I created a budget to pay a round figure each month, plus any interest accrued on the balance of the previous month, as well as purchases made during it. The key was staying the course. As long as I continue to stay the course, my magic number of monthly payments to being credit card debt free is down to a maximum of 9!

I'm 30 years old, my boyfriend and I are both completely debt free, got our 6 month emergency funds in place. We are both working 2 jobs so we can build our wealth, get married and buy a house CASH! We are investing aggressively to build our retirement fund. It's been an incredible journey and I'm so excited for our future. I'm never going back to the debt trap again.

  • It's a whole mental thing, to pay off debt. To not use cc's unless its dire. Something is on sale and too good to be true purchase and you buy it, thinking how much you have saved. BUT training the mind to think that that purchase is just going to put you that much more into debt. To imagine the numbers in your bank account going up and the numbers of your cc balances going down...every single time you want to buy something. Its really nice when you change like that, when you look at things as a financial burden rather than a must have.
