@@andrewsalazar98 Exactly. They are waiting for Joe to forgive their debt while they are out spending their stimulous checks on electronics and eating out. SMH
Even if I made cut backs I only make 30k salary in Ireland after taxes 😂 how people make 500k a year ??!!!!!!! I love to know - don’t have any debr by way
My brother who's also a nurse BANKED during these pandemic. Worked in Boston, navada and now California. He was making like 15k a week. His wife was like this is the only time I'm letting you leave me with the kids for months🤣 Mind blowing.
I am curious as to the hour rate normal and how many over time hours? When I was young, I did 70-80 hours/wk extended, perhaps more without the stress of a difficult commute. I was aware that a temp nurse can get a better rate than a permanent position, more so when there is a desperate demand
Yea so let's assume a nurse makes $60/hr. At regular wage for 40hrs, that is $2400/wk. Assuming 1.5x pay for 4hrs of OT (between work hrs 8-12), that is another $1800/wk. Assuming 2x pay for anything over 12hrs per day, working another 20hrs is another $2400. So that's $6,600/wk, assuming 80hrs a week worked over 5days... Those are 16hr days. Not saying impossible, just seems far fetched.
Most could not work in the environment this woman did. If she was pulling 10k contracts she was working in the crappiest most dangerous situations. As a fellow nurse I applaud her.
Tom Smith, I was not aware of that scripture in the Bible and didn't even know it was there. : ) Ok...Soooo...here's what I just did. I just wrote it down and posted it with a magnet on my refrigerator thanks to you. : ) This lady is a beast and she has let me know I need to "step up my game." Thank you very much for posting the scripture and Blessings to you my friend.
Aww, 2:21, Dave literally wiping away a tear after shaking his head with pride for this woman. That must be one of the highest honors. And this lady's a freaking BOSS! I'm inspired.
Exactly this!! Be in your feelings, you're entitled to that. But at least do something about it. Dave Ramsey will not lose a minute of sleep over your feelings, so you might as well prove him wrong.
I’m a nurse and working 36 hours is rough. The fact that she did 72 hours a week makes her a WARRIOR cause I could never do that for more than one week in a row but she did it for 52!!
I’m current RN and working crazy amount of OT. 17 12 hour shifts with CSP and OT. Just purchased my first home and is my only current debt, I thought buying a home would be awesome, but now I feel like I need to work 365 since this is my first time having debt. Good for her! Hopefully she takes a mental break.
Crazy I had to text my nurse friend she confirmed... No one wanted to do it die to the risk... People who travel especially to NY were being compensated generosly at the beginning. She a certified hustler... Dave statement at the end pretty much sum up life. Some people make things happen while others wonder what's happening...
If you’re wondering if this is fake, it definitely isn’t. A nurse practitioner is one of our customers here at a luxury dealership and told us the same thing. Depending on the role she was filling in, she was making 6-13k a week.
Oh for sure. My brother in law for awhile was working in his same hospital making multiples of whatever he normally earned. The money in travel nursing is wild
@@Raistlinsdragonclaw Highly improbable a nurse is going to change jobs every week to get $10-13. From what I can tell Ramsey often creates stories to fit his listeners narratives.
@@jeffsmith9420 definitely not fake. Working at the local dealership here, we personally know of a nurse practitioner who does travel nursing to this day and explained her income. Highly possible especially in areas that need health care workers.
I think I listened to her first call in clip a few days ago. December of 2019 a nurse called in and Dave said there's plenty of OT for nurses, I thought "man, y'all have no clue whats coming".
@@MrTurner999 couldn't find it on the clips channel, it may have been in a full episode. The most I can narrow it down is that it was December of 2019, sorry
DH and I are currently doing this, albeit in a different-ish situation. We are wanting to buy our first home but chose not to play the crazy game with cash offers that we don't want to compete with. We suspended our house search, tossed 50K into an index fund, and are just letting it sit.
While she was making $13k a week, doctors were asked to work for free or have their hours cut. Kudos to her. I wish I had that opportunity to make bank lol.
@@elliotjames1273 I would assume Spikers knows this & is either: A) Making a joke. OR B) has the qualifications and he is looking for a the job. If not, then what Elliot said.
Good for you Alexandria, you did what most people in the world don't have the balls to do. You worked hard and made sacrifices to achieve a goal and it paid off.
@who dat Possible troll job. There's also no proof it isn't real. People do lots of things others perceive as unbelievable. I'll add: Working at a hospital, nurses (she's a nurse practitioner, which pays more than the average nurse salary) were putting in some serious hours this past year.
In Portuguese we say “UMA INSPIRAÇÃO PARA TODOS NÓS.” translation: “An inspiration for all of us.” God bless you for all you have done for you and for us humanity in such challenging times! 🙏🏾🙌🏾❤️❤️
Dave you need to fly her out and get her on the show. What an amazing thing she was able to accomplish
Yup yup!
Dave: how many hours a week did you work?
Alexandria: all of them
🤣😂
Nailed it
LOL!
Winner not whiner
🤣😂🤣😂
Such Great Wisdom in these Videos! Thank you Dave for all your guidance.
Easily the most impressive caller. I am humbled by her effort.
Dave is even impressed.
Life: “Here, have some lemons”
Alexandria: *Opens a 5-star restaurant
This lady knows what to do. She worked hard and got rid of debt. She wins during the pandemic while others use it as an excuse to be lazy. Awesome!!
Others want their debts forgiven because they don’t want to cut back on wasteful spending and pay it off.
@@andrewsalazar98 Exactly. They are lazy and feel entitled.

@@morgancornwall3254 they also have double overtime when facilities are desperate not just the normal time and a half or even double. It’s possible
This woman is a nurse practitioner and they tend to make more than a nurse. Still such an amazing accomplishment.
@@TuyetNguyen-pp2ew what's double OT? 4x pay?
Most could not work in the environment this woman did. If she was pulling 10k contracts she was working in the crappiest most dangerous situations. As a fellow nurse I applaud her.
100%. I did Boston and Texas and I can agree with you
Anyone CAN do it. They just don't want to.
@@dialac1 Thank you! ❤️
@El Jefe: Yeah, definitely something you don't want to do all the time. That could have been highly dangerous for her health, but she made it through.
It was intentional. I applaud as well.
2:20 Dave literally cried a little. What a story for everyone to live by. This woman is amazing.
nah... think he was just picking out something from his eye

Yea I'm sure 36 hours is pure torture 😂
From a wimp to Wonder woman. WOW! Wondeful!lol.
Don't know her, but I feel proud!
Dave: How many hours do you want to work?
Alex: yes
Watching Dave's face throughout this was the best. He was SO PROUD!!
I’m an NP from NY. God bless. Those days were hard mentally draining days and she worked like crazy. God bless. I’m proud of you girl.
Girl needs a vacation! She has earned it. Thank you so much for your service throughout the pandemic. You are incredible.
i did this for two years and ended up having cancer the next year. then i realized life is about quality , not always about money!
Link to when Dave called her a wimp would be an awesome full circle
Oh yeah! Before and after clip.
She didn't STAY SAFE people!!! She ran into the fire!! Fearless!!!!!!
In behalf of the people you saved and cared during the Pandemic, THANK YOU Alexandria! 🙌

This woman is amazing! Just shows anyone can do it if you apply yourself. Absolutely no excuses for people not to be successful.
Yes no excuse 🤗
I love her matter of fact tone of voice. Just, wow!
Congratulations to this young wise hardworking young lady and to all who are doing the same. God bless 🙌
Love the work ethic...its not common anymore. I'm stoked for this woman, she deserves the world. This is who I want in my circle.

She's a different!!! Much respect. I hope she takes a break now. That's insane. I hope she goes back to normal now
Nah, normal's broke. (wink)
But I do hope she goes back to enjoying balance.
This is so crazy that it should be a major news story.

What a MACHINE! Good job!
Dave thank you for changing family trees!
Alexandria! CONGRATULATIONS 🎈

What an awesome story. Thanks for sharing this one.
Wow, almost $500K. That’s amazing!

Man this woman is inspirational. Truly amazing.
I was thinking BEAST,and then Dave said it.She should take a great vacation,spa,massage,beach,dining,the works.
she should put a massage therapist on retainer !!

Wow ! Speechless
Congratulations!! So encouraged by this caller accomplishments. This let's us know hard work pays off. Well done keep going!!
From the sound of her voice she sounds exhausted. She deserves a break. Good for her. My question is, are they hiring? Lol
Nurse practitioners are basically doctors. That isn’t a job you apply for without extensive schooling.
She needs at least a 3 week vacation to Miami 👏🏽.
No just a winner.

Idk if she's "everyday" considering her monster income but still very impressive and inspirational indeed.
I love this call!
Working seven days a week! This woman is resilient! Good job!
