I dont think the pokemon cards are the problem here. It could be a solid investment. The problem is defo him giving it away and trying to build a platform based on fake followers
I advocate for men often on this channel, for all the young men out there this guy did one thing right, he owned his behavior. Normally there is some caveat some reason etc, not here. That's the only thing he did right. First, do not get married. Second do not treat women poorly, they don't deserve it. If you are unhappy, find someone else. Third and most importantly he lied and betrayed her. This is the most important because it reveals horrible character. If you chose to become legally bound to another person through marriage you owe them transparency, honesty and integrity. If you can't deliver that then don't get married. You should of course expect all of that in return as well but remember you do not have to be married to have a successful long term relationship with a woman.
You missed the most important advice that ALL human beings should hear and take heed. DO NOT bring children into this world if you are unable to care for them in every way to include financially. ---- There are so many things in life that are out of our control BUT your choice to lay together is 100% within your control! I have one child and then I proudly did the most responsible thing a man could do and that was, I had a vasectomy because I knew I only ever wanted to have one child!
He's very lucky she's willing to hear him out. Like he said, it's not just about this lie, it's just the final straw. He has been unpleasant to her for years by his own admission. How many people want to be with someone who drains the joy AND money from their life? He sounds like he wants to make the changes but the wife probably has heard it all before. She wants to see proof like Dave said, and not just a few weeks or even one year of good behavior, it's going to be a long road to healing and I wonder if he has what it takes to stick with it if he has a history of being selfish and neglectful.
Correct, he only called in to make her believe he's taking action and trying to change to prevent the divorce. I'm sure this has been going on for a very very long time
That intro was hilarious! "I messed up big...went behind my wife's back...pregnant wife, I should say. Now, she's filing for divorce." LMAO! He went straight to the point.
Trying to get rich off Pokemon cards is a sure fire way to end up in the poor house. Too many videos out there showing people how they can make all this money. Stop believing get rich quick schemes.
@@TheBlurr3dVision i was surprised by this call because generally sealed pokemon cards dont go below retail price. Selling it is a different story but i always thought it was a safe investment
Getting rich off pokemon? It’s possible but it’s very speculative. The day trading equivalent of trading cards is buying and flipping. Buying and holding the investment as 5% of your total portfolio and holding for profit is completely viable. Pokemon has over a 25 year history of growth and magic even longer. If you are wise and take it slow and play the long game it’s completely viable. Just be smart and don’t go heavy on it and it’s also a fun hobby to enjoy if you have kids.
Beanie babies was a quick dead fad, pokemon has a 25 track record of growth and it isn’t slowing down. Matter of fact it’s in a massive bull market right now and it’s sold out everywhere. I’m not saying go all in on this, but a small percent of portfolio like 5% can achieve some wonderful gains. This is a fun play investment and should not be part of your overall retirement goals or trying to get rich quick.
I agree with this 99%, in that while I agree that trust takes time to rebuild but I have to say that now his life is eggshells, anything he ever forgets to say he's done. Spend $4 to get a coffee at dunkin on his way to work and not tell her ahead of time? Done. Think I'm joking... rewatch the video and hear how the female host specifically corrects Dave when he says to the caller that "you have to tell your wife about all purchases going forward" and she adds "big and small" and Dave adjusts by specifically stating "even a freaking pack of gum." At some point the partner that has been wronged has to decide that either they are willing to trust again or not. The lording it over them forever isn't trust building, its blackmail. A marriage can't survive when one partner now has a knife to the throat of the other. If she isn't willing to trust him again with the little stuff (obviously I'm not talking about thousands of dollars) then she might as well pull the plug because her "need for reassurance" will lead to contempt on his part. Right now he can't imagine it because he knows he screwed up and he wants to fix it. But a decade down the line when she's still threatening to walk out the door because he bought a soda out of the vending machine at work without clearing it with her it will become hatred in his heart. Been there, done that.
Thanks for bringing that up. I would be miserable in a marriage where I was scared to forget to mention a $2 for the rest of my life. They should just go over the finances and bank statements together at least once a month and he should tell her about every purchase above $50 or $100 depending on their finances.
One of the HARDEST things for us men to do is admit to a wife that we are losing in life..... The shame, loss of value and possible disrespect that comes is almost unbearable.... so sometimes we slip into deception. First by saying nothing, then by outright lying. There are men who have lost their jobs going out to "work" every day! I agree with his doing everything to be honest going forward, but he cannot become her slave. He has to still lead, make decisions and risk losing. That is life. What she needs to understand that she will still have to cut him some wiggle room as time goes on. its not her opportunity o now get him to do all he was reluctant to do.
Nope - we no longer live in a world where "men lead" - that is mythological nonsense. Women are perfectly capable of living without a man anymore, on their own terms, and so many do. Men need to pop their silly puffed up empty egos. If a man wants a wife now, she is at least equal, but he has to acknowledge that she (and almost every woman) is the leader of the household, the CEO, CFO, and board of directors, since women do everything anyway, while men just go to work, come home, and never do much to actually participate in the care of their children, the work the household needs done (not just mowing a lawn once a week during warm weather, or taking out garbage once a week, but all the items she is stuck with - appointments, school, child care, food, clothes everything. Men need to bow to women as the leader and take their marching orders right away.
If what he was reluctant to do, which was the case, was the stuff he, as a man, is responsible for doing ( eg providing for his family) then it IS her business. If she and the kids are dependent on him to step up as provider then its very much their business. You can't have it both ways.
Women aren’t rehab centres for dysfunctional men. If he can’t handle his responsibilities and is lying and disrespectful to his family, he needs to face the consequences. Why stay with a man who brings nothing to the table.
People need to stop using other’s misfortune and idiocy to feel better about themselves. These videos are posted so that we learn and don’t make the same mistakes. They’re not here for you to gain happiness out of other’s suffering. We’ve all done some pretty stupid crap unintentionally or intentionally.
My wife and I had an agreement since we got married 33 years ago that we discuss anything costing more than $100. Over the 33 years, we have upped that limit but have trust in each other.

Dude didn’t realize those guys you see on RUclips selling cards are making more money on RUclips then they are on the sell of the cards and in some cases have an online store built up over years.
I know a couple who does this full time and has a staff working under them. Pokemon on Whatnot, if done correctly, makes millions per year. But you need to have high knowledge on it just as you do with any other career.
You must be stuck in that corner of WN. There's SOOO much more to the app. It started with Funkos and trading cards, then it opened up to more categories from there. Along with clothing other big categories are shoes, storage unit auctions, Amazon pulls, beauty products, luxury bags, and trading cards (still one of the platforms biggest selling categories). It does all very from pre-loved to NWT though I've found more often than not things that are NWT. The algorithm will show you more of what you like so that's why you think it's mostly pre owned luxury.
I’ll be praying for you, sir. We all must live a lifetime of repentance with hope in Christ’s love. It seems you’re trying. Keep it up. Lord have mercy on you.
Why is it when it is the other way around, people would say the husband should've man up and forgive the wife and don't put accountability on the wife. The husband should have the right to divorce his wife if she placed them in financial infidelity. Majority of the time when I hear ramsey talks to a woman he is always bias towards men when the woman caused it.
Furthermore, people like this don't change until they actually lose something they care about. I was a terrible drunk and a manipulator for years, and I recognize what this guy is doing every time I see it. 😂 He's using brutal honesty as just another manipulation tactic, but he's not really sorry for any of the stuff. He'll most likely act right for a few months and do something else shady the first chance he sees.

@Yogastrong908 For richer or poorer. Nowhere in the bible is financial infidelity. Most women have escape accounts and drain savings before they file which is definitely financial infidelity. Not saying what he did was right but people expect marriage to have to be perfect and their husbands to not mess up from time to time. Again any dude that marries nowadays is asking to get ruined.
Who else should he blame? And he said himself he was an angry jerk with her before any of this happened. He doesn’t deserve her loyalty, he’s behaving like a child and not a husband.
@hilaryb8807 He sounds gaslit and desperate. The way you talk is why men don't want to commit. Nothing but rules for thee not for me. Nothing but high risk with minimal payoffs.
The right Pokémon cards can be very valuable, this guy is not crazy at all & at least is owning his situation. The most expensive single card sold in last 10 days sales on ebay was 28th Dec 2024 Pokémon Rayquaza Gold Star 107/107 EX Deoxys Holo ITA PSA9 (POP 1) sold for US$51,000 for one card & that is not unusual at all, many single Pokémon cards have sold for a lot more than that in the past & multiple times every day single cards are selling for $10,000 +++ so absolutely not as crazy as it sounds.
Why did she get pregnant so many times with him? She is making poor decisions as well. I’m sure she knew there were issues well before she had her last 3 pregnancies. Both are contributing to this mess.
Want a cautionary tale in how social media can ruin your life? Listen to this call. "Being an influencer" is not a viable career path for the vast majority of people who try it.
Someone I know,wasted his family hundred k wife left she’s married now having a 7th kid with her new husband,while the loser lives with his mom not paying anything because he’s depressed and drinking a lot .
She should stay no matter what because he was trying to provide for his family. First thing she did is divorcing him. Good Luck and everything will be ok .
My wife and I sell on whatnot pretty much full-time and it works well for us, but I can totally see how new sellers can get carried away trying to grow. Dude made a mistake but he seems genuinely sorry. I have high hopes for their marriage.
He might be better to get divorced. Not because he is a bad guy or the fact he made a bad decision. The fact his wife cannot trust him right now is probably a good reason to leave.
As a woman, I wouldn’t take this guy back. It would be fine for a little while, but then he’s going to lie about or conceal something. At that point when he knows that he’s really going to lose his family , he may do something desperate like a M/S.
If the caller was a woman, Dave and company would not call it financial infidelity. Weird how that happens isn't it. Hey dude, keep trying to be a top tier guy, you screwed up on this card deal, but keep working. Don't let this call turn you into a bigger simp.
Dave Ramsey made a realtor's decision when he was young and foolish. Everyone makes mistakes. So keep living life. Budget and saving may not make your life easier or happier. I made makes, but suffered very little money losses. I don't keep my money in other people's pockets! 😂😂 Also buy a house as quickly as you can.😂😂 Rent free for over 50 years!❤🇺🇸❤
Coming from the perspective of someone who is married to an addict, I’m suspicious that he’s saying all the right things. Addicts lie like they breathe. I would bet he’s got other issues going on and is hoping he can put on a front until the wife’s guard s down and he can carry on with his addiction.
How is financial infidelity for Pokémon cards and IG account the same as if u slept with someone??? If a woman racked up debt on shoes and clothes she has a problem, but bc he’s a man it’s the same as if he slept with someone???
Its called financial infidelity because you betrayed a persons trust regarding money. It has similarities to sexual infidelity but it isn't exactly the same. It also goes both ways. If a man or woman does it it's the same.
This man spent over 5 figures to try and build a platform to sell cards and lied about it. This guy has real issues and hope he gets his act together. I really hope he doesn’t try to sell his cards to a hobby shop. He’ll be lucky to get 50cents on the dollar versus maybe getting 75cents privately selling.
He sucks at business. That's all. Doesn't seem like a bad guy, he just got sucked into a bad business. Nothing wrong from that, he was looking to make a better life for his family and took a big risk that didn't pay off. He knew that she wouldn't support it and he felt like he was making the right moves. Show him some grace. He messed up and it sounds like he learned from it. I took many cracks at it and lost a lot of money before I found one that stuck and my wife was by my side the entire time. Now we benefit from it and can afford many things we otherwise couldn't have because of the risks I took.
He also had anger issues. A woman with small kids and pregnant with another has to think of their safety first. No one needs a dude like this in their life.
Did you miss the part where he admitted he was angry and miserable to be around before any of this happened? This guy was a jerk to begin with, then racked up a huge debt behind his wife’s back.
he doesnt have the right to risk that much when he has a wife and 4 kids counting on him and he destroys their future and basic needs...... wanna be stupid like that do it when single or before kids ...once kids comes you never ever risk their food and housing being stupid

Oh? But I want to get 82K every two weeks
He’s self aware and taking accountability. That’s more than most.
He's very lucky she's willing to hear him out. Like he said, it's not just about this lie, it's just the final straw. He has been unpleasant to her for years by his own admission. How many people want to be with someone who drains the joy AND money from their life? He sounds like he wants to make the changes but the wife probably has heard it all before. She wants to see proof like Dave said, and not just a few weeks or even one year of good behavior, it's going to be a long road to healing and I wonder if he has what it takes to stick with it if he has a history of being selfish and neglectful.
Correct, he only called in to make her believe he's taking action and trying to change to prevent the divorce. I'm sure this has been going on for a very very long time
That intro was hilarious! "I messed up big...went behind my wife's back...pregnant wife, I should say. Now, she's filing for divorce." LMAO! He went straight to the point.
Trying to get rich off Pokemon cards is a sure fire way to end up in the poor house. Too many videos out there showing people how they can make all this money. Stop believing get rich quick schemes.
Local card shops have razor thin margins. Only way to be profitable long term is to sell thousands of dollars a day.
@@TheBlurr3dVision i was surprised by this call because generally sealed pokemon cards dont go below retail price. Selling it is a different story but i always thought it was a safe investment
Getting rich off pokemon? It’s possible but it’s very speculative. The day trading equivalent of trading cards is buying and flipping. Buying and holding the investment as 5% of your total portfolio and holding for profit is completely viable. Pokemon has over a 25 year history of growth and magic even longer. If you are wise and take it slow and play the long game it’s completely viable. Just be smart and don’t go heavy on it and it’s also a fun hobby to enjoy if you have kids.
Don't blame the internet for your neediness. ~Brian
Love your content Uncle Dave!!
Don't even get me started on my "long game Bennie Baby" scheme.
Beanie babies was a quick dead fad, pokemon has a 25 track record of growth and it isn’t slowing down. Matter of fact it’s in a massive bull market right now and it’s sold out everywhere. I’m not saying go all in on this, but a small percent of portfolio like 5% can achieve some wonderful gains. This is a fun play investment and should not be part of your overall retirement goals or trying to get rich quick.
Wish this guy the best!
I agree with this 99%, in that while I agree that trust takes time to rebuild but I have to say that now his life is eggshells, anything he ever forgets to say he's done. Spend $4 to get a coffee at dunkin on his way to work and not tell her ahead of time? Done. Think I'm joking... rewatch the video and hear how the female host specifically corrects Dave when he says to the caller that "you have to tell your wife about all purchases going forward" and she adds "big and small" and Dave adjusts by specifically stating "even a freaking pack of gum."
At some point the partner that has been wronged has to decide that either they are willing to trust again or not. The lording it over them forever isn't trust building, its blackmail. A marriage can't survive when one partner now has a knife to the throat of the other. If she isn't willing to trust him again with the little stuff (obviously I'm not talking about thousands of dollars) then she might as well pull the plug because her "need for reassurance" will lead to contempt on his part. Right now he can't imagine it because he knows he screwed up and he wants to fix it. But a decade down the line when she's still threatening to walk out the door because he bought a soda out of the vending machine at work without clearing it with her it will become hatred in his heart.
Been there, done that.
Thanks for bringing that up. I would be miserable in a marriage where I was scared to forget to mention a $2 for the rest of my life. They should just go over the finances and bank statements together at least once a month and he should tell her about every purchase above $50 or $100 depending on their finances.
I doubt even a decade
One of the HARDEST things for us men to do is admit to a wife that we are losing in life..... The shame, loss of value and possible disrespect that comes is almost unbearable.... so sometimes we slip into deception. First by saying nothing, then by outright lying. There are men who have lost their jobs going out to "work" every day! I agree with his doing everything to be honest going forward, but he cannot become her slave. He has to still lead, make decisions and risk losing. That is life. What she needs to understand that she will still have to cut him some wiggle room as time goes on. its not her opportunity o now get him to do all he was reluctant to do.
Nope - we no longer live in a world where "men lead" - that is mythological nonsense. Women are perfectly capable of living without a man anymore, on their own terms, and so many do. Men need to pop their silly puffed up empty egos. If a man wants a wife now, she is at least equal, but he has to acknowledge that she (and almost every woman) is the leader of the household, the CEO, CFO, and board of directors, since women do everything anyway, while men just go to work, come home, and never do much to actually participate in the care of their children, the work the household needs done (not just mowing a lawn once a week during warm weather, or taking out garbage once a week, but all the items she is stuck with - appointments, school, child care, food, clothes everything. Men need to bow to women as the leader and take their marching orders right away.
If what he was reluctant to do, which was the case, was the stuff he, as a man, is responsible for doing ( eg providing for his family) then it IS her business. If she and the kids are dependent on him to step up as provider then its very much their business. You can't have it both ways.
Women aren’t rehab centres for dysfunctional men. If he can’t handle his responsibilities and is lying and disrespectful to his family, he needs to face the consequences. Why stay with a man who brings nothing to the table.
I hope he works everything out. 😮
People need to stop using other’s misfortune and idiocy to feel better about themselves. These videos are posted so that we learn and don’t make the same mistakes. They’re not here for you to gain happiness out of other’s suffering. We’ve all done some pretty stupid crap unintentionally or intentionally.
Congratulations to his wife! Cut your losses with this guy!
She’s almost 4 kids too late now 🤷🏾♂️
@@stefanossmitty3318it's never too late. She needs to leave and put him on child support or shared custody.
Divorce is the work of the devil and sin in almost all cases.
And yet she opened up her womb again to him......she doesn't sound too smart either. Yup congratulations for stupidity.
And good luck to her finding another male with 3 kids yikes
My wife and I had an agreement since we got married 33 years ago that we discuss anything costing more than $100. Over the 33 years, we have upped that limit but have trust in each other.
Damn this guy has more accountability than 10,000 women combined.
Should have thought about that before it's too late. And how long until the next get rich quick?
Another woman hater in the chat . . .
Accountability after 26k in credit card debt?
So true 😊 truth is high but higher still is truthful living..super advice from Jade and Dave as ever ..👍👍 so real and based on life experiences ..we all make mistakes otherwise we wouldn’t be human..admittedly the caller is up the creek with a tiny paddle but hats off to him for owning up to his misdemeanours and wanting to change which is the first stage of transformation and full marks to his Mrs for showing she’s serious about future and putting the breaks on 😮 ..she has young kids to consider in all of this crazy that she didn’t create 😢 intensive counselling and a real commitment to change will see him through the strong tides…😊 hopefully he will see Dave’s journey as a model to follow for him to build trust 🙏 we all have to be friggin aware of the lure and power of social media and advertising otherwise it will swallow you up and spit you back out again😮 please let’s get back to real, authentic living 🙏🙏
I'd divorce him too lol
Who'd marry you?
Divorce is a sin. He's not dead and he didn't commit adultery. Be careful who you choose to marry.
@@strangeroamer3219 Amen. Men will sacrifice their happiness for a family women will sacrifice their family for their happiness. Especially nowadays it's crazy. Do not marry.
@strangeroamer3219 not everyone follows your belief system, as you know. It's perfectly OK for the caller's wife to put her and her kids first, and ditch this guy who seems to be a real liability.
@alladreamwedreamed Exactly modern women's view on marriage in a nutshell. That's why any sane man wouldn't marry. No loyalty no forgiveness just trapdoor and onto the next walking wallet.
Dude didn’t realize those guys you see on RUclips selling cards are making more money on RUclips then they are on the sell of the cards and in some cases have an online store built up over years.
Get rich quick, rarely if ever works. Buying and selling Pokeman cards, what the blank. He found this out the hard way.
There's some cards that can be worth thousands. They have to be the right ones.
I know a couple who does this full time and has a staff working under them. Pokemon on Whatnot, if done correctly, makes millions per year. But you need to have high knowledge on it just as you do with any other career.
its in a major boom fight now i bet he could resell his product itself and make over double his money
Gotta catch em all
Whatnot is like an auction for all types of items, mostly pre owned luxury. All mostly authentic. I know what he’s talking about with the giveaways.
You must be stuck in that corner of WN. There's SOOO much more to the app. It started with Funkos and trading cards, then it opened up to more categories from there. Along with clothing other big categories are shoes, storage unit auctions, Amazon pulls, beauty products, luxury bags, and trading cards (still one of the platforms biggest selling categories). It does all very from pre-loved to NWT though I've found more often than not things that are NWT.
The algorithm will show you more of what you like so that's why you think it's mostly pre owned luxury.
I’ll be praying for you, sir. We all must live a lifetime of repentance with hope in Christ’s love. It seems you’re trying. Keep it up. Lord have mercy on you.
Why is it when it is the other way around, people would say the husband should've man up and forgive the wife and don't put accountability on the wife. The husband should have the right to divorce his wife if she placed them in financial infidelity. Majority of the time when I hear ramsey talks to a woman he is always bias towards men when the woman caused it.
Furthermore, people like this don't change until they actually lose something they care about. I was a terrible drunk and a manipulator for years, and I recognize what this guy is doing every time I see it. 😂
He's using brutal honesty as just another manipulation tactic, but he's not really sorry for any of the stuff. He'll most likely act right for a few months and do something else shady the first chance he sees.
America has an issue with grown men that are obsessed with things like Pokémon cards, funko pops and whatever other rieiculous childish crap that’s going viral on social medias. It’s embarrassing as hell
America has an issue with grown men that are obsessed with putting down other men about their hobbies if they aren't deemed "manly" enough. It's embarrassing as hell.
@@korean_bagel bro, collecting funkos is special needs levels of embarrassing
@ grow up man
This isn’t a man. This is a little boy.
The caller was irresponsible yes. But for people like myself that are not foolish, I earn a high income $200k, and have no debt to include house is paid off, I buy whatever I want and don't give a flying EFF what you or others think what the EFF I buy. It's people like YOU that have an obsession with NOT minding your own business.
Id love to hear daves opinion and perspective on the national debt and what the government is doing about it. Also what he thinks should be done about it.
Nice talk.
She found a chad somewhere
Exactly he needs to paternity test all the kids
Or she found out he has another child instead of a partner, one that burns their money. How long until the next get rich quick scheme? Let me take this stick trading course, I will win everything back...
If she bought Evolving Skies she'd be in a huge profit right now 😂😂😂
he could've bought anything and profited 2x-5x
"'Till death do us part!" Really means nothing anymore, it wasn't even mentioned once!
My roommate made 50k with his old Pokemon cards.
He just didn’t know what he was doing.
Wish him the best.
Hope it works out for this guy
I like jade and daves combo
"Do these jeans make me look fat?" 🤐 LOL
I'm retired at 47. Went from Grass to Grace. This video here reminds me of my transformation from a nobody to good home, honest wife, $75k biweekly and a good daughter full of love God bless America 🇺🇸 ❤️
Excuse me for real? How is that possible I have struggling financially, how was that possible?
Thanks to KATE ELIZABETH BECHERE.
She's a licensed U. S. broker and finance advisor, and her insights into the digital market have made all the difference for me.
I have heard a lot of wonderful things about Kate Elizabeth Becherer on the news but didn't believe it until now. I'm definitely trying her out
YES!! That's exactly her name (Kate Elizabeth Becherer) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her from Ottawa Canada🇨🇦
Im retiring and collecting cans. Nickle per can.😂😂😂
I pray for him and his family.. That is good he has taken extreme ownership.
Just swapped all of my last ETH and swapped it into XAI301F. Already up a little bit. Unfortunately I have some other junk staked which won’t free up for a while. Still now I am on the train!
scam
Don't marry. Daily reminder. For richer for poorer in sickness and in health. Nonsense. This guy's so defeated he's blaming himself.
Don't marry the wrong person...
He shouldn’t have committed financial infidelity again.
@Yogastrong908 For richer or poorer. Nowhere in the bible is financial infidelity. Most women have escape accounts and drain savings before they file which is definitely financial infidelity. Not saying what he did was right but people expect marriage to have to be perfect and their husbands to not mess up from time to time. Again any dude that marries nowadays is asking to get ruined.
Who else should he blame? And he said himself he was an angry jerk with her before any of this happened. He doesn’t deserve her loyalty, he’s behaving like a child and not a husband.
@hilaryb8807 He sounds gaslit and desperate. The way you talk is why men don't want to commit. Nothing but rules for thee not for me. Nothing but high risk with minimal payoffs.
Guys his age either buy Pokemon cards because they got divorced or their wives divorce them because they bought Pokemon cards.
When you withdraw 8% but it was a down year for the market
The right Pokémon cards can be very valuable, this guy is not crazy at all & at least is owning his situation. The most expensive single card sold in last 10 days sales on ebay was 28th Dec 2024 Pokémon Rayquaza Gold Star 107/107 EX Deoxys Holo ITA PSA9 (POP 1) sold for US$51,000 for one card & that is not unusual at all, many single Pokémon cards have sold for a lot more than that in the past & multiple times every day single cards are selling for $10,000 +++ so absolutely not as crazy as it sounds.
I have a bag of magic beans for sale.😅😅
Sounds like dude needs to grow the hell up.
Didn't grow up 20 years ago, it's too late.
Growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional.
Why? Because he has interests and hobbies? You sound like a judgemental boomer.
@@patrickklippen3540found the grown man who’s obsessed with Pokémon and funko pops. Pathetic
@@patrickklippen3540 Seriously? A man doesn’t prioritize his “hobbies” over the well-being of his own children and wife.
Why did she get pregnant so many times with him? She is making poor decisions as well. I’m sure she knew there were issues well before she had her last 3 pregnancies. Both are contributing to this mess.
I think the same about my aunt. 5 babies with a cheating husband. Truth is, she loves kids and doesn’t want more than 1 baby daddy.
What a great investment! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
He has to do all of that whether he can save the marriage or not. There are still three children.
Guy was trying to trade $0.02 cards buying them at $50 each.
Want a cautionary tale in how social media can ruin your life? Listen to this call. "Being an influencer" is not a viable career path for the vast majority of people who try it.
Someone I know,wasted his family hundred k wife left she’s married now having a 7th kid with her new husband,while the loser lives with his mom not paying anything because he’s depressed and drinking a lot .
She should stay no matter what because he was trying to provide for his family. First thing she did is divorcing him. Good Luck and everything will be ok .
Dave: You need to sell the car Pokemon car
Collect all the pokemon cards you want, but dont go into debt for it.
My wife and I sell on whatnot pretty much full-time and it works well for us, but I can totally see how new sellers can get carried away trying to grow. Dude made a mistake but he seems genuinely sorry. I have high hopes for their marriage.
HAHAHAHA $26k on Pokemon cards HAHAHA. Edit: he was running a scam on Instagram, even worse.
He might be better to get divorced. Not because he is a bad guy or the fact he made a bad decision. The fact his wife cannot trust him right now is probably a good reason to leave.
Thanks for the XAI301F update! I am loving my XAI301F!
As a woman, I wouldn’t take this guy back. It would be fine for a little while, but then he’s going to lie about or conceal something. At that point when he knows that he’s really going to lose his family , he may do something desperate like a M/S.
If the caller was a woman, Dave and company would not call it financial infidelity. Weird how that happens isn't it. Hey dude, keep trying to be a top tier guy, you screwed up on this card deal, but keep working. Don't let this call turn you into a bigger simp.
If he thought he was making a legitimate investment, he would have told her about it.
Dave Ramsey made a realtor's decision when he was young and foolish. Everyone makes mistakes. So keep living life.
Budget and saving may not make your life easier or happier.
I made makes, but suffered very little money losses. I don't keep my money in other people's pockets! 😂😂
Also buy a house as quickly as you can.😂😂
Rent free for over 50 years!❤🇺🇸❤
Why keep having kids when your marriage is in trouble? That trouble didn't happen overnight. Poor children.
If I come home late from work (to pay the mortgage) no way my wife lets me put it in the wet spot
Happy wife happy life, right DAVE?!
No wife , happy life!
I think the Pokemon cards were a symptom of his unhappiness. It was going to end regardless. Just a matter of time.
Ive stared buying XAI301F ,and staked them.
scam
Bro paid for bot account followers then hosts a raffle. What are the odds a raffle winner ends up being a fake account?
Coming from the perspective of someone who is married to an addict, I’m suspicious that he’s saying all the right things. Addicts lie like they breathe. I would bet he’s got other issues going on and is hoping he can put on a front until the wife’s guard s down and he can carry on with his addiction.
Just 26k and shes going for divorse? what a weak marriage, or they have way bigger problem
26K of wasted money behind his pregnant wife's back? Forget this guy. He is setting them back. She needs a mature father for all these kids.
She picked him!
How is financial infidelity for Pokémon cards and IG account the same as if u slept with someone???
If a woman racked up debt on shoes and clothes she has a problem, but bc he’s a man it’s the same as if he slept with someone???
Women do not care a man's problems. They hang out at the finish line and pick the winners - Richard Cooper.
The broken trust is the same regardless of which partner does it.
It's broken trust. If a woman f's her finances without your knowledge, you can feel betrayed as well.
Because breaking trust destroys relationships regardless
Its called financial infidelity because you betrayed a persons trust regarding money. It has similarities to sexual infidelity but it isn't exactly the same. It also goes both ways. If a man or woman does it it's the same.
First Elon bought X and now he launched the XAI301F token this year is crazy
Dear caller's wife - you were right to file for divorce from this selfish, immature, thoughtless man. Don't look back!!
Yup, the court allows women to walk away with cash and prizes.
26k isn’t a lot of money
I'm seeing Pokemon cards on eBay that are priced at a million dollars and a higher? Do people really pay this much money for those cards?
This man spent over 5 figures to try and build a platform to sell cards and lied about it. This guy has real issues and hope he gets his act together. I really hope he doesn’t try to sell his cards to a hobby shop. He’ll be lucky to get 50cents on the dollar versus maybe getting 75cents privately selling.
In your opinion, XAI301F for $10? 1 year or so?
$0 when its rugpulled the first week
He sucks at business. That's all. Doesn't seem like a bad guy, he just got sucked into a bad business. Nothing wrong from that, he was looking to make a better life for his family and took a big risk that didn't pay off. He knew that she wouldn't support it and he felt like he was making the right moves. Show him some grace. He messed up and it sounds like he learned from it. I took many cracks at it and lost a lot of money before I found one that stuck and my wife was by my side the entire time. Now we benefit from it and can afford many things we otherwise couldn't have because of the risks I took.
He also had anger issues. A woman with small kids and pregnant with another has to think of their safety first. No one needs a dude like this in their life.
Did you miss the part where he admitted he was angry and miserable to be around before any of this happened? This guy was a jerk to begin with, then racked up a huge debt behind his wife’s back.
he doesnt have the right to risk that much when he has a wife and 4 kids counting on him and he destroys their future and basic needs......
wanna be stupid like that do it when single or before kids ...once kids comes you never ever risk their food and housing being stupid
What is price prediction of XAI301F
