      Seriously if his world was operating so well, he wouldn't need to ask anyone for advice lol. He needs to understand his lady isn't making real money and he's buying too much shit, he'll keep going into debt if he doesn't change his poor financial habits and patterns. They know he's not ready to change too with his argumentative tone, as if his wife being an Olympic level athlete bends reality like Thanos using the reality gem lmao.

    As someone in the horse world, here is something that was always taught to me. "To become a millionaire with horses you have to start out as a billionaire." It's NOT an industry with high value EXCEPT for the 1% and even then it's expensive and barely any margin. At ANY moment your horse could colic or you could fall and it's your last ride. This industry is majority hobbyist and as much as I love how passionate he is about his wife's athletic abilities, he needs to understand that even if she's covering her "expenses" she's not and they are going to bleed money from some part of the sport.

    • @TheSoulCrisis

      Exactly she's living a lifestyle they can't afford given that she clearly isn't making enough money from whatever sports competitions she takes part in and her "business" is only a hobby in profit terms. He needs to make a lot more money to fund this lifestyle or they need to strategically work as a team.

      If the guy can get his finances in order and is willing to float his wife's business, so be it.

    This isn’t a normal Ramsey call. George is used to calling out the bad decisions. This guy already knows he made bad decisions. He’s on track and getting it cleaned up. He’s scared he’s going to screw it up again and doesn’t trust himself. He’s afraid as soon as he gets the debt paid off he won’t be able to handle future emergencies and be right back where he started again.
    My advice to him is: Try changing the perspective. Right now you’re looking back at all the debt as you clean it up. Next, look forward and set yourself and your family up to handle the next big hurdle. You don’t know when it’s going to rain, but you do know it will rain. So build up an emergency fund and keep it there so you can the truck blowing up or HVAC going out without going back into debt. Then you can look ahead and save for your kids college, save for retirement, and get yourself a a paid for house. That’s the perspective I’d like you to have and it’s awesome! You’ve got this man!

    B: Their sell their skills and lease off their horses, they're trainers and offer rides.
    C: They're "professional athletes" (that means they get paid for it! being of that level is *amazing!* but she's not being paid to ride according to him), they are sponsored, they work for a local or national team.

And I get that John and George thought that was pertinent...but you know what was very pertinent? The actual advice he wanted! "Put barriers in place to make it harder to spend your emergency fund," is a fine start to that advice, but it certainly shouldn't have been the whole thing!

    Nathan, in the vanishingly unlikely case you see this: create a budget that covers all of your living expenses and desired saving/investing goals. Then have the money earmarked for saving and investing automatically transferred to a separate institution that'll keep that money out of sight and out of mind on a day-to-day basis and make it harder/slower to access. You can keep a much smaller savings account on hand at your primary bank that you can use and rapidly replenish if necessary.
