He’s still relatively recent since he joined in 2020. But I hadn’t tuned into Dave for awhile so John is a recent discovery for me and definitely a great add compared to the old days.
She's not in love with the area and the multiple trips a day she has to drive to drop off kids to school, then shuttle kids backs and forth to activities, groceries, errands, friends, and church. All eat up her day behind the wheel. But she doesn't feel she has a say because her husband is the breadwinner and he has the real estate development dream. Therefore, she is the one who has to make that daily sacrifice.
That time each way taking multiple trips a day would eat a ton of your day away and definitely be a grind after some time. She’s speaking about math because if she simply told her husband about hating the drive he wouldn’t sign off on it because he doesn’t want to move. So she is hoping that a math argument could work because the time spent in her car either hasn’t worked or won’t work.
They didn't make the basic suggestion that seem obvious; sell some of the land to get in a better financial place and live with the drive. They also didn't ask if they could even get a house for less money if they moved close to town, typically as you move closer to town the prices go up. They may end up with less land, less house and still owe more.
They don't want to sell plots yet which is the problem. They are waiting for the town to build schools, grocery stores and a church so they can sell when the value goes up. The problem is they have no idea how far away that is and the husband isn't doing the school run.
As they mention it isn’t a math thing for her she doesn’t like having to spend hours in her car every day ferrying her kids around. Hence why they didn’t make those suggestions because the math isn’t what her issue actually is. Part of answering calls is giving people the advice that pertains to their actual questions.
Well that was a frustrating call. She stressed me out. She made it sound really confusing as far as where the houses were at. Obviously she has her desire and the husband has his. But the husband has the leverage of making all the money lol. It seems like they're on different sides so until they can come to something they agree on they need to not do anything. If they move the husband is going to resent her for making him give up his dream, just for her preferences.
If he’s paying all the bills an she doesn’t work she has no say boo hoo I have to drive 30min but I’m on 13 acres that will be worth tons down the road
@@Dreambig62 it's not that she can't have any say at all but it's that they are a marriage. It would also be equally unhealthy for them to keep score and decide that he gets to make every decision just because he makes the money. The key is that they need to be in agreement on these types of decisions. If they are in disagreement on this decision then clearly they need to remedy that before moving forward
Marriage is hard and all about compromise. You both can get what you want, one can get what they want, and sometimes neither of you get what you want. It’s worth it even during the days of “I love you but that doesn’t mean I have to like you right now”. 😂 When it comes down to what matters, it’s really worth it.
Do they not care? I think it's obvious. We want to be better than others and houses are a way to show how successful you are. It's sad but it's natural.
She kept going back and forth making it sound like there's also back and forth between the land where the property is in and the house they bought. 🤦♂️
She definitely didn't make out like house was on the land 🙄 such a frustrating call ....my cousin got a house in the country then hated it all money went to house and development and she couldn't have her hair and nails done at will it broke her marriage sadly. Some people's like the ides of being a Jones (owning 13 acres) more than they actually like the reality of living it.
@@euenfheiejrj He was very confused about a very simple set of circumstances. Most of us easily understood what she was trying to say and it's not even our jobs!
30 minutes away in a town that's just developing. She's just trying to come up with reasons because everywhere around Denver, Colorado is studded with Walmarts (all around) and have decent restaurants, groceries, and retail all over. She's just using the kids and the church as an excuse. They could move churches and school but she doesn't want to for obvious reasons. They definitely could afford the house as she's not even stressed out and just looking for math for wrong reasons.
So glad you caught that!! I live in Denver, CO and I was thinking "where is this little town 30 minutes from Denver? Aurora? Littleton? Highlands? All dotted with retail stores and decent public school
I couldn’t imagine driving 30 mins to anything. That’s way too far. I live in a big city and don’t know anyone moving. Not everyone wants to live in the middle of nowhere. I like to walk everywhere.
Try living in the Seattle area at 2am its a twenty minute drive from Lynnwood to Seattle but during the day its a hour or longer for the same trip put a nice audio book on and enjoy the drive.
Move to another city. My kid’s school is five min for me, as is grocery store. Have over half an acre, big house, cheap. Don’t get why people put up with HCOL lifestyle.
"We" sounds like it was her idea, he just went along. Using the kids and driving as a excuse. She want amenities I bet she doesn't work. She wants big city life without the cash. Always the man's fault. Stay single.
Does “stay single” include refraining from dating, flirting, or doing anything that might raise a woman’s hopes that you’re interested in her, as well as tactfully and immediately stopping any woman who demonstrates interest? Also not partaking of cruder mechanical employment of the female anatomy, because invariably the woman’s feelings and pride are aroused, regardless.
Sounds like they definitely have no idea or money to develop that land. Dave is right, I am working on a tiny piece of land development and it is astronomical- way less than an acre and big dollars to level and prep for a house. AND the dah dah dah machine (rock buster) is definitely $$$$ like he said, we call it the $15 machine - as in, every thump is $15.
Also Dave and Rachel know what happens if you do that. They had to start over from bankruptcy because they bought too much house. If you listen to their story it will tell you why this is a bad idea.
That caller needs to deal with whatever emotional hang-up she has over saying what she wants. Also, 30 minutes away doesn’t seem very far. There’s other stuff going on here.
30 mins away actually is a lot depending on where you live and what you’re looking for. I know because I grew up in a small town in Delaware and most of everything besides Walmart and big lots was at the very least 30 mins away. Not fun 🙃
What's wrong ? It's an incredibly dangerous & stressful job and very tough to get accepted into the academy. Moving up the ranks, working OT, can easily get you to $120k. You think LEOs make minimum wage $ 9/hour ???
My husband was a real estate developer after years as a builder and before that a rental owner...if he had it to do it all over again he would have stuck with rental owner. He was a millioniare when that was real money in the 60s in his 20s..lost it all during the Carter admin oil embargo when we got double digit interest rates...was newly divorced in '81 when we met...he was the best thing that ever happened to me in a very full life.
If Dave would listen instead of cutting in so much, he would have understood how far from town she is living. Hard to listen to him not understanding what she was stating fairly clearly. SMH
Can this caller explain anything at all? I do not think so, even Dave was 'wtaf' on this one. I still don't even know which place was 30 minutes from anywhere. Frankly, I'd keep the 13 acres, rather than being a princess about driving. My driving to work was usually 30-40 minutes. City princess.
Sorry Ramsey, you're wrong on this one. He's making the money, he's paying the bills and they're doing fine financially. She should get a job and help contribute in order to preserve the amazing piece of land that they have. 30 minutes of driving is nothing.
Why can’t Dave ever shut up and let his cohosts speak? If you don’t want to ever let them talk then why have them on the show. Also 13 acres in an up and coming town isn’t something to sneeze at. They don’t have to develop it themselves. Just sell it when the time is right. Dave talks a big game about real estate but there is no record of him owning any type of rental property or being involved in real estate development aside from building his office. This guy makes all his money from Ramsey and books, not from real estate holdings.
Don’t have kids with a person that shows interest in living in the city. It shows that they are not going to be focused on the home front and their childrens’ and spouse’s needs.
We moved closer to town. We should have done it so much sooner. But I bet your cop hubby wants his land, so enjoy your driving. It gets much worse as the kids get older. You will increasingly just hate it.
This is broke people problem. A rich couple problem in this situation would be a debt free married couple with paid off home and paid off land with this issue. Only ones rich with this couple is the banks that own them.
No she made it sound confusing. I thought she also meant that they had land elsewhere. Although I understood what she was saying and I thought she meant it was the same thing I can see how Dave took it to mean that the land was separate

What? He's been on here for years.
He’s still relatively recent since he joined in 2020. But I hadn’t tuned into Dave for awhile so John is a recent discovery for me and definitely a great add compared to the old days.
She's going to make him move to the city, then complain because the yard isn't big enough for the kids.
Big houses with land are great . IF YOU CAN AFFORD IT .
He picked the wrong one🤷🏾♂️
If having to drive 30 minutes is enough of a reason to sell 13 acres of land, then this isn't a math issue.
She's not in love with the area and the multiple trips a day she has to drive to drop off kids to school, then shuttle kids backs and forth to activities, groceries, errands, friends, and church. All eat up her day behind the wheel. But she doesn't feel she has a say because her husband is the breadwinner and he has the real estate development dream.

A house with land is by far the best . Having a house in town or the city can be good but land and a house is far by the best in the long haul .
With today's gas prices, that 30-min drive is a killer.

Great discussion to have before buying a house.
