I love seeing Black men and women on the debt-free stage! It makes me cry a little bit as I find it so inspiring and amazing to have folks to relate to!
first, you are commenting on this page which means you are smart and curious. You are also aware that debt can be dangerous and third you are not listening to the other 98% of the population that has been conditioned to be harnessed to the debt sled the rest of their lives. For these reasons, I'll say you've got a darned good shot at getting yourself in reallty good shape. Get inspired, get fired up and set yourself truly free. You can do this. It won't be easy, but you can do it. My gut says you will...
@@saralee8459 We didn't always make $300,000 during our debt-free journey. And we had our first child during our journey so all of our income wasn't going towards debt. It required us to work extra hours and start a side hustle to finish in 4 years.
@@saralee8459 when you make that much money. It takes extreme discipline to use the money to pay back debt. Their hard work should not be diminished because they have a high income.
It’s part of your story. You made it your own, and what a story it is! I love how you went against convention to do what turned out to be best for you! That’s a rare and equally special story!
Just crossed the $1.5M mark in my portfolio, and I can't help but think of Taylor's lyrics, “The best people in life are free.” Investing wisely has given me such freedom. It's incredible how aligning with the right mindset and guidance can fast-track financial goals. I'm living proof that expert advice works wonders!
congrats on the milestone! I'm struggling to see even a fraction of that growth. Feels like I'm missing a key element. Who's giving you these golden tips?
She doesn't manage my investments; instead, I mirror her trades, which has been a great learning experience. Her knack for timing and understanding market trends is uncanny. Honestly, without her, I'd still be stumbling in the dark.
She does seem proficient with solid credentials. It’s always beneficial to have an experienced professional guiding through the investment landscape. Thanks for the recommendation!
Linda Allman? That name rings a bell. Saw her featured in 'Financial Success Today.' If she's the one guiding you, no wonder you're hitting those numbers!
I've attended a few weddings over the past few years and they seemed extremely expensive. So proud of them for realizing an event isn't greater than getting out of debt. Imagine if they'd gone into even more debt. . . they may not have made it to 5 years of marriage. Now, they look so happy and are likely very close. So happy for them!!!!
Sounds like they had good income it is not like they made baby money incomes!! Not to take anything away from people but it’s more like making 15k while making 20k.
@@neikojohnson God bless you two. Bless your marriage, your love, your proposed family and most of all your relationship with God. God’s rich blessings. Always put God 1st. Sending you love from Barbados 🇧🇧
Makes such a huge difference having the right people in your life ( partner & friends). Congratulations to this beautiful couple it's only up from here.. God bless 🙌
You guys are absolutely incredible. To come back from half a million dollars of debt in less than 4 years… I’m out of words… You know everything is only going up from now on. Have all the fun in the world in Dubai!
Did you look at their final income? Now what would have been super surprising if they made 60k and did this. Getting rich is not easy but high incomes are commonly associated with high overall wealth.
How many people can make this kind of money and not be up to their eyeballs in debt trying to compete with the Joneses. This beautiful couple is making bank and can spend a large portion of it on savings and investments which will make them multi-millionaires in no time...and they are very young to boot!!
@@ToOpen6seven what you mean you don’t know how many people make this kind of money? You already know percentage wise it can’t be very many!!! People making money and being in debt still allows them the option to be able to buy.
I remember the orthodontist that called in a while back that had $1,000,000 in debt. Amazing how different approaches can yield different results. I know orthodontia requires a longer residency/fellowship or whatever, but still
For all those people saying that they weren’t given enough advantages in this life, look at this couple. $300k in student loans and she crushed it. Good for them.
@@neikojohnson exactly my thoughts! the hold off on wedding was just epic .... i would encourage my son and daughter to do their wedding in a city hall and thats about it!
Grew up in Ethiopia, this was engrained in us from childhood. We did baby steps not knowing about it :) It should be taught, common sense, from childhood, and be part of the American culture.
This is so encouraging to watch, very happy for this young yet wise couple for their persistence and dedication. What a huge debt to pay off, this is so admirable!
#inspirational #powercouple #blkexcellence I love this. Congratulations on sticking to the plan & finishing the goal. Cheers to the next steps and your journey toward being millionaires.
@@lexalee5795 When this nice couple moves into their dream home, do you suppose that they would like their neighbors to refer to them as that “the dentist and the IT professional” or would they prefer “that black couple”? Because as long as people feel the need to label everything they do as “black” then that’s the way it will be. How would you react if they had been a white couple and somebody posted about “White Excellence”? You would think that’s pretty unnecessary…right? 🤷🏾♂️
@@edhcb9359 here you go… the “woke mob”, “cancel culture” taking offense to something so small and meaningless… would you like this dear person to write a sincere apology Mr. Offended? Should we call his job and get him fired? Are our feelings hurt over “black excellence”… Ok you win “Pink Excellence at its finest”… feel better now?
Live like noone else so you can live and give like noone else! This is the start of generational change, huge congrats to neiko and Alexis on your guys journey. Hoping my wife and i will be at the Dave Ramsey stage in a few years (80k left on our home)
This makes me so excited!!! As a general dentist myself, thanks for being willing to go onto Dave Ramsey's show to share your story. I appreciate it so much! It's encouraging. Blessings You Two! And 🎉 Congrats!
This is amazing accomplishment! Wish you both many blessings in the future. I see a lot of the comments trying to undermine the accomplishment by stating the amount of money the both of you make, and while that is helpful, it still takes a ton of sacrifice and discipline. Congratulations!
Why would you say they are trying to undermine their accomplishment? Noting people are making hood incomes is not bad. Normally paying off debt requires an income higher than expenses which they are also implying. I just think they are not super impressed considering the income was also high!!! They made good incomes and could afford to pay their debts so it is not a surprise.
