[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1188670, member: 198"] You are assuming that conditions are like that everywhere in the country. They are not. And in most areas there are always jobs that people could do to supplement whatever they already have. If not..... moving to an area with a better job market is always an option. It's true that prices have gone up but there's always plenty of cheap alternatives. For food there's beans and rice (another Dave Ramsey suggestion). For clothing there's Walmart and second hand stores. Gas is unavoidable but riding a bus, bike, or car pooling is an option. One could also cut back on pleasures like buying DVDs, PS3 games and cut back on internet bandwidth or cancel it completely. Cable tv? Gone! As a driver I can definitely see that people are definitely not making these cuts. At least not in my area. If his advice was "common" sense then why is the average American swimming in debt? I guess the general public just loves crippling debt huh? And why would you have a problem with him marketing what he's has learned? I've heard people from every tax bracket call him for help and people from those same brackets call to tell him they are debt free thanks to his advice. What should they have done? Take financial advice from broke people? LOL! [/QUOTE]
