Long story short on my emergency fund. I had a 25k emergency fund in 2019. While driving to work (paid off car), I had a seizure and totaled my car. I never had a seizure in my life. The hospital found a brain tumor which had to be removed otherwise I had 5 years to live. The emergency fund covered a 2nd used car for 9k cash, and my 4k health insurance deductible. My health insurance covered the remaining 130k brain surgery. My out of pocket total was 13k in a matter of 3 months. Fast forward to 2024. I am thankful to be alive, my emergency fund is replenished back to 25k+, and no brain tumor re-growth found.
That’s amazing so glad you made it through. Keep living positively as such
Wow!😮. So happy it worked out. Blessed.
Congrats on your recovery and I hope you stay healthy. I collided with a deer last year. Sad to say the deer died, no injuries to myself... 2014 car needed 6k+ in repairs. Had 1k in emergency fund for insurance deductible - thank goodness I had full coverage - but I'm still jumpy/nervous when driving. Reminds me - I need to top-up my emergency fund.
So glad you're here to share that! Awesome!
Imagine if you lived in a country with Universal healthcare you would of kept more of your savings and still got the healthcare you needed
Investing is a real thing here, I feel investors should be focusing on under-the-radar stocks, and considering the current rollercoaster nature of the stock market, Because 35% of my $270k portfolio comprises of plummeting stocks which were once revered and i don't know where to go here out of devastation.
Safest approach i feel to tackle it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown. its important to seek the guidance of an expert.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850K.
Please can you leave the info of your lnvestment advsor here? I’m in dire need for one.
Her name is 'Mary Kaliope Braun’. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
Thanks for sharing. I curiously searched for her full name and her website popped up after scrolling a bit. I looked through her credentials and did my due diligence before contacting her. Once again many thanks
1. Get on the same page with your spouse.
2. Get on a budget.
3. Pay off your student loans.
4. Protect your emergency fund.
5. Try out a new side hustle and create more margin.
6. Prioritise contentment.
7. Be aware of lifestyle creep.
8. Buy a house only when you’re ready.
The hero we needed :)
Thanks
Getting a good side hustle going is the hardest thing I could have ever imagined.

2023 was a wild ride. I paid off my student loans, thank you 0% interest!!!, and then paid off my car!!! Down to two credit cards… by December 2024 I will be debt free!!! 💜
Well done! Than you can really be living the life in Texas.
Yayy! Praying that there are no barriers to keep you from your goal in 2024!!!

Just discovered your channel with this video -- I was able to think about my situation and I'm curious to know best how people split their pay, how much of it goes into savings, spendings or investments, I earn around $90K per year but nothing to show for it.
I got into stocks few years ago and my candid advice for a newbie like you is to seek help from market experts rather than RUclipsrs.
@@Aurierserge50 Right, a lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their emotions. I remember some years back, I needed a good boost to stay afloat, hence reached out for advisors and thankfully came across one with grit. As of today, my cash reserve has yielded from $350k to nearly $1m
@@Aurierserge50 Facing a similar situation, I sought advice from an invęstment advisęr. Through portfolio restructuring and diversification with good ETFs, S&P 500 and growth stocks, I've turned my portfolio around from $200k to over $800k in a few years.

I’m considering whether to retain $3 million in single-family rentals, we have $900,000 left on mortgages. What is the possibility of maintaining $70,000 annual income by selling and investing in stocks and bonds?
Real estate, while a solid investment, demands effort and lacks liquidity compared to stocks and bonds. Long-term market trends should guide decisions.

Real estate isn’t as liquid as cash or cash-equivalents, or even stocks and bonds. I rather the latter. Just as you’re experiencing, real estate can be a lot of work.
It is harder to convert real estate into cash than cash-like assets, or even stocks and bonds. I prefer the latter. Real estate can be very demanding, as you are finding out.
Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Instead of trying to predict and prognosticate the stability of the market and precisely when the change is going to happen, a better strategy is simply having a portfolio that’s well prepared for any eventually, that’s how some folks' been averaging 150K every 7week these past 4months according to Bloomberg.
The professionals presently control the market since they not only have the essential business strategy but also have access to inside information that the general public is not aware of.
You have a very valid point, I started investing on my own and for a long time, the market was really ripping me off. I decided to hire a CFA, even though I was skeptical at first, and I beat the market by more than 9%. I thought it was a fluke until it happened two years in a row, and so I’ve been sticking to investing via an analyst.

“Leila Simoes Pinto’’ You can easily look her up, she has years of financiaI market experience.
Thank you for this Pointer. It was easy to find your handler, She seems very proficient and flexible. I booked a call session with her.
I have $800k in a high yield savings account, yes I’m making gains but to what extent with inflation eating away at the dollar? Am I better off investing in the stock market or buying a house?
Knowledgeable Investors know where and how to put money in order to reduce risk and maximize returns. See a market strategist with experience if you are unable to manage these market conditions
Gold is a great investment and a good bet against the devaluating dollar, been holding some for awhile now. I’m grateful for this tip from my advisr. My portfolio is well-matched for every season of the market and recently hit 100% rise fromm early last year. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, tho this could take till Q3 this year
Major challenge for me is to employ the service of one this year. I've seen some off LinkedIn but wasn't able to get a response. Could you recommend who it is you work with?
She goes by '‘Heather Ann Christensen’ I suggest you look her up online. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did.
I would by a house in a good location.
Rachel's first point: "Getting on the same page with your spouse"...Is what made my husband and I be successful in our marriage, parenting, and life overall. 33 years together doing this routine we are beyond happy 😊 and blessed 🙏.
This is number 1 for couples...period!
My husband and I did the roommates things for about the first year of our marriage. We put just enough to cover monthly bills and such in a joint account but then I started getting wise about the debt we were in. I finally talked to him about paying it off around our first anniversary and when I say we were spending a good 800$ more than needed every month, I'm not exaggerating. Being on the same page and truly combining finances was the best thing for us, we paid an extra 600$ towards debt last month even with Christmas shopping.
Don't feel too bad, that's not uncommon I think for a lot of us couples.@@ashleyterry6424
Well said, Helen. My wife and I did the same thing and it works! :-)
There is potential for considerable wealth increase with the correct strategy. I want to know; How can one take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings/net-worth to about $3M over time?
By stop scamming people on the internet and actually do the job
In 2022 we had to buy my wife a new used car when her car become undrivable.
In 2023 my $4,000 car got totaled in a car accident.
We had saved up some cash for a kitchen remodel (above our emergency fund) and used that money to buy 2 good used cars.
The kitchen remodel will be delayed 1-2 years but that's OK we have lived with the same kitchen for 35 years.
It is amazing how much money you can save when you have no debts.
I will be retiring in June 2024 and my wife will retire in 2025.
Looking forward to a great retirement
That new kitchen will be a nice retirement gift to yourselves!
Congratulations on retirement!
Just tagged this video my best for today. Enjoyed the whole interview. Really need Dave's help, I’m 52 and disabled since 2009 with $600K net worth. Already have shares in Real estate (properties for rent). But I'd still love to spread my investments across the fin- markets ahead of retirement. Can you help me?
The government has let us down; just buy gold.
This is why having the right plan is invaluable, my $510k portfolio is well-matched for every season of the market and recently hit 100% rise fromm early last year. I and my CFP are working on a more figures ballpark goal this 2024
@josephbush Could you be kind enough with details of your advsor please?
She goes by 'Heather Lee Larioni'. I choose to delegate my excesses to her because of her great expertise. I suggest you look her up. To be honest, almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finances, but so glad I did!!!
I appreciate this share. I set up a call with her and I am keen on getting to talk to her particularly.
Several of the biggest market experts have been voicing their opinions on exactly how awful they think the next downturn would be, and how far equities may have to go, as recession draws closer and inflation continues.. well above the Fed's 2% objective. I'm trying to build a portfolio of at least $850k by the time I'm 60. I need suggestions on what investments to make..
I'll suggest you find a mentor or someone with experience guide you especially in this recession. especially for your 401K, IRA and portfolio diversification.
I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day invt decisions being guided by a init-coach, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using a init-coach for over 2years+ and I've netted over 2.8million.
That's fascinating. How can I contact your Asset-coach as my portfolio is dwindling?
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran an online search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
We are retired. My 78-year-old husband has a three day a week part-time job. This extra income goes toward medical needs, extra, property taxes and extra payments on our condo mortgage principal. We use your budgeting system and have found this to be very successful for us. We never made more than $50,000 a year, were both divorced and started over at age 46 and 50. Without strict budgeting we would never have dug out of the hole we were in.
Dave is like the uncle we all need lol 😂
I agree. He should write a book called ‘rich uncle, poor uncle’ 😆
I just sold a property in Portland and I'm thinking to put the cash in stocks, I know everyone is saying its ripe enough, but Is this a good time to buy stocks? How long until a full recovery? How are other people in the same market raking in over $450k gains with months, I'm really just confused at this point.
Yes, a good number of folks are raking in huge 6 figure gains in this downtrend, but such strategies are mostly successfully executed by folks with in depth market knowledge

Great advice Dave and Rachael. My wife and I have been married 47 years. I listened to your show for many years. You have to be in it for the long haul. We have always had a joint checking account, and lived on less than we made. Now, we are living comfortably as debt free retired millionaires. Young people listen to him. This stuff works.
The emergency fund is the best advice I’ve ever gotten from Dave. I have 6 months of expenses (including unforeseen expenses!) saved up and even though I am super stable in my job, it’s given me so much peace! I’ve had to touch it once but prioritized replenishing.
#1 - combine incomes - is so on point. My husband and I paid off our house in 9.5 years. We could not have done that driving in separate lanes. The Baby Steps work!!! Thank you so much.
I want to invest roughly $7,000 in stocks since I've heard that even in challenging times, investors may turn a profit. Any excellent ideas for stocks?.
It's crucial to have a well-thought-out strategy and not make impulsive moves based on short-term market fluctuations. Patience and a long-term perspective are key. You should consider a market expert to guide you.

With world markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest rate hikes, the treasury yields rising rapidly, markets manipulations, and many other factors makes me wonder if people still make profits from all these investing BS.
I don't fully agree with you... With the right steps & predictions, one can make so much profit from the market in a day, do your own research.... Believe me or not as an inexperienced person who knows next to nothing, my net-profit is about +65% just in a couple of months... I'm retired and I am using this extra funds to help pay for odds and ends that I want.
Hi Mike, your profit margin is quite inspiring and stunning for a starter; do you make use of spreadsheet, what is your biggest holding
@ Kentucky....Spreadsheets have always seemed incredibly time-consuming, stressful, and of no relevance to me. I mirror Kelly Marie Matwick's positions in real-time and I prefer it because it's very very transparent and everything is automated I don't have to be actively involved...You can give it a try.
it's pretty easy when you understand the market pattern. Buy the dip of good companies. lol.
It's important to know what you're investing in, otherwise people shouldn't invest at all. If your goal is to make 20% return in 6 months that ain't happening heck even 5% isn't happening. It takes time.
Yearly average on the s&p is 7.8% since the year 2000, and this includes every market crash and dip. That's a heck of a lot better than sitting on cash that's losing value day by day due to inflation. 1 down year (which has happened only once in the last 5 years, and 3 times in the last 15) doesn't negate the net profit from investing in products that are safe
My husband and I agreed on finances. That was a great thing for 53 years. I'm so thankful that my husband is good with money. There were lean years but we worked through them. We did beans and rice before I ever heard of Dave Ramsey.
16 years ago, I took on a extra duties at work and volunteered to work at least 82 hours a week. I made bank for a 19 months. It was what I needed to pay off my truck and my home.
Since then, I have been mortgage free and every year I had been getting further ahead of the curve. Every raise that I have ever received…I put it directly into my retirement. Now, I’m retired and living essentially debt free…sans taxes, medical copayments and essentials.
We had an emergency, actually quite a few last year. Part of the roof fell in, car broke down, family bereavement etc etc. we had to use our emergency fund. But came out of 2023 with out the need to take out a loan. 2024 goal is to re build the fund.
My wife & I combined our money when we got married. We have rarely had any issues with money. Just paid off our 3rd home in CA. & sent 2 of 4 kids to college. 😁
I'm considering investing around $700,000 in stocks as I've learned that savvy investors can still profit during challenging times. Do you have any solid stock market strategies for this year?

There's a direct correlation to married people who are not on the same page financially and divorce. Period. Don't marry someone who you cannot trust with your money. That's a really good test to picking a spouse.
Contentment, what a great one! I’m doing a Low Buy in 2024, bc it is exhausting always wanting more more more. I’m gonna invest this time in myself!
My husband and I are about to start FPU for the second time with our church this month. Praying it sticks this time!! Your videos are always so inspirational and helpful. Thank you!!
It will 100% "stick" when You decide to actually Do the program and not allow yourselves "exceptions". I did it as an older single person. - Create And Follow a budget.
- Cook at home. No takeout/restaurants
- Take leftovers to work for lunch. I Hated the concept of eating leftovers- now they are a regular plan.
I could go on, but it's everything Dave Ramsey has already spelled out.
- Understand and adjust to being uncomfortable for a season. It's temporary.
- Imagine how much money you would have if you didn't have debt.
Seriously, count up how much you pay monthly on debt alone- then imagine/dream about how you could save and invest that money to work for you.
Don't wait for it to stick. Stick. to. it. You can do this. It is worth it. You and your marriage are worth it.
It amazes me how people are stuck paying off student loans. I can’t imagine what it would feel like to be in my 30’s or 40’s and still be paying student loans. I’m glad I’m cash flowing college. Cash is King! 💵👑
If you don"t mind me asking, how are you able to cash flow college?
@@sstrongman1667 I take it a semester at a time. Sometimes I only take one class a semester. I pay about $280 per class per semester and for the books I use the Electronic version. I also attend a community college that’s affordable.
You are so special.
I know a couple whose children are borrowing money while in college because Mom and Dad are still paying on their own student loans! CRAZY!!!
I know people retired with student loans. They are in their 60s and 70s. They got Masters and PhD unnecessary degrees. They didn't make the money they thought was going to happen. The company said " you are already doing the work. It doesn't require that degree. We are not paying anymore".
They were forced to take early retirement because the company sold and new company gave the option of a lower salary or a package. They took the latter but unable to find work due to age and health issues.
Thanks much you two! Happy New Year and God Bless!!!
I am so shocked at how many couples have separate money. Talk about inviting resentment and division! You'll share your body but not your bank account?? How crazy is that??
I hope and pray that people listen to the benefits of "becoming one" in every aspect.
I was too shocked but MORE shocked when I friend who has been re-married and he (hides) a separate bank acct that the spouse does not know. That's terrible!!
@@Non_Of_U_business A lot of people do this unfortunately but the reason for it is because of divorce when people get divorced it makes a huge mess my mom would often combine her finances with X husband then they got divorced and it was a huge mess same with a woman changing her name anywhere else like her social security my sister did that with her only husband she divorced him and now she has so many issues ect. Sometimes is better to absolutely keep things separated however have open communication ect
My husband and I did have separate accounts but sat down and paid them together. Each was assigned a part of the total budget but occasionally I would have to ask for him to pay for something because I was running a little over😢🤔. Each of us had a savings account for emergencies connected with our two checking accounts
Yes, surprised but when divorce came into the picture - game changer. To place the responsible spouse to pay the prior spouse's half because they wont!!?? Bad system
Happy New Year! I look forward to this episode EVERY YEAR!
i have spent years fighting overdraft and credit card payments. last month i decided to get out of my overdraft and start the debt snowball. i am from UK but following your steps and it took me a month to get out of overdraft and now i am double in credit what i was overdrawn, i have been able to go out for coffee with friends and help people out which has been a massive help in the mood, love following your path and long may it continue. now to get my credit cards gone and my husbands debt gone and we will be free. Thank you to you all
My wife and I are millionaires. No debt. We have separate finances. We are happily married for almost 20 years.
And if you listen to dave ramsey, you wont be much longer.
I love my stuff, even more so because everything I own is fully paid for and usually thrifted.
Number 3 is definitely on my list! The overtime is helping tremendously!
Budget... it seems people treat it as a dirty word.
But I finally created one and it helped get rid of one bad habit “Impulse buying”.
Plus , I am using cash ... no money... can’t impulse buying.
happy new year Rachel and Dave. Here's to another year of great videos helping people.
Great to see Mr. Ramsey! Keep it up!🎉
Love Dave! He's so blunt and has a heart of gold! 😂
Love this yearly video. My goal for 2024 is to not dip into my emergency fund and stay on budget using the Ramsey app.
My husband and I just have $7,000 left in his student loans and we're DONE with our debt (except the house)! Woohoo! Planning to pay $1k/month to pay it off or more if possible.
Absolutely yes for the first one. I have been trying for a few months to “get things under control” and my husband was not onboard. He finally decided last month that he needed to change too and the one month progress is incredible. You both have to be all in, walking the same direction for it to work.
I loveeee how Mr Dave says it how it absolutely is. He’s so point-blank… I love it
Rachel for every eye roll there are hundreds of thousands of us PRAISING GOD!! for the wisdom, compassion, and feeling like family that comes from yours 🎉 Much love
You could invest in stocks, start a side business, or focus on advancing your career. It's important to set goals and make a plan. Remember, wealth can mean different things to different people, One thing i can say that helped me in life to reach my first million was starting early, i got curious and informed i became open to passive income, investments in equities , etfs and the likes. also sought help to handle my portfolio which was my foundation. i'm ever grateful to Anna Rounds Fay my FA
That’s some good values. sounds like you got something going for you
The aim is always to find stocks with market-beating yields and shares that at least keep pace with the market for a long term.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I did a search on her name and came across her web, thank you for sharing
Thanks for. the info. So good.

thx a loooot, Happy New Year!!
Always feel encouraged after your talks. Thanks!
All really good tips. Plan to implement them. Always shared finances with hubby from day one. Been married 28;years. Good advice Rachel. Not understanding why people give you a hard time about it
Muchas gracias por los consejos Rachel y Papá.
Thanks Dave and Rachel xx
I was waiting for this ❤
Thanks Rachel and Mr Ramsey your a God send! The majority of Americans (and the world) need you so much more in these trying times! God Bless You!
This is wisdom. Every single point is spot on! I have learnt these things the hard way (I am 54). Thank you for helping millions of people.
Thank you to the Ramsey team for giving such good advice ❤. We are so close to being debt-free, only a few months away🎉🎉🎉
We paid off our mortgage early by paying an extra $100 towards the principle every month from the beginning. In our minds it was as binding as the regular monthly mortgage payments, and we never considered it as an amount that could be deflected to another purpose. Budgeting, emergency fund, early loan payoffs... whatever it is, it's a mental commitment that becomes a habit.
Congrats. Just curious how much time did you cut off by doing this?
@@tylersouthcott3359 I honestly don't remember as that was many decades ago. (I'm 79 and my memory is NOT improving with age!) The extra towards principle does make a considerable difference, especially since the early mortgage payments are going nearly all to interest, so you're just lining the bankers' pockets. The amount that goes towards the principle very slowly increases over time.
Thank you very much I learned a lot especially on owning a house vs renting. You're both good❤
Thank you for the inspiration ❤
👋Thank You Sooo Much for this Segment!
Great advice!
I look forward to this video every year 🎆
Thank you for a great video!😁
Love watching you two together. Thanks for the motivation 😊
Love this! Thank you
Lifestyle creep is the hardest. When I picked up a part time job I thought the only thing we’d change was the thermostat. Then we decided to get braces for the kids and get them in sports. I mean thankfully we don’t go wild on clothes or out to eat, but we have added to our expenses.
Every parent should expect braces at some point for at least one child
Happy New Year ❤ god blessed ❤
I’m Ubering and instacart part time plus I’m meeting new people to add new customers and partners to my business! This year I’m starting my coaching business.
1. YES!!!! Always be on the same page with your spouse.
2. Budget, Budget, Budget. Love it
3. Student loans - debt gone
4. Emergency fund - YES. We had a water leak and I am so glad we have an emergency
5. Side Hustle = New Business!!
6. Contentment….Yes!
7. Lifestyle Creep ….. Yes!!! Learn to learn in your budget.
8. House …. Yes. Money Pit. Already in that.
Enjoyed the video. Good info. Thanks for sharing
I LOVE Every Dollar. It makes budgeting so easy. It just puts it out there in front of you what you’re spending. It’s great.
Rachel, your wardrobe, I LOVE IT! 😻 Can we get the make of those? 😊😊
Same here really liked her outfit today
2024 is our year to get back on track, and 🤞🏻 transition to one income family. We are in stork mode, but started budgeting again and ready to see what 2024 holds! Took almost a year to combine accts after marriage, but it has been life having the last 6 years.
Happy new year!
Great pieces of advice! I used to live check by check and also had credit card debt for years, but two years ago I started practising minimalism, and this summer I got introduced to Dave Ramsey and started doing baby steps: I cut my credit card this week! I attacked my car debt and will be done in March and then I am planning to pay of my mortgage in 2026 instead in 2031. Just thanks to the change of perspective. I manage to save a half of my salary to attack my debts!!! Thank you so much!!! ❤❤
Congrats!! Im still working on somethings. Im also a minimalist
Love it when Dave come on your show!
Awesome 👏 😊
Love it thanks
Makes sense. Thanks Ramsey.
Contentment is my focus this Year and I made my first budget.

You guys are awesome!
Dave keep it real...you're more realistic and down to earth comparing to guys like Grant Cardone or Robert Kiyosaki
Wow, Dave, good job, no sarcasm here... You're team of host are getting well polished. as presenters, speakers, professionals, and specially they've internalized the information and are able to teach using there own words, and experiences. Good job. Thank you LORD for reteaching us your truths, to make life in this realm less of a burden.

Enjoyed video !

Love it!
I love your videos in general and always learn a lot. As a volunteer DV advocate though I disagree with completely combining finances as that's often how people get stuck in abusive relationships. I try to advocate for having one joint account and two separate.
Do you have any suggestions for us since my husband was denied 2x for life insurance? Should we just save that premium in a hysa? Anything else? Love your show and both you & Dave. ❤
love this video and Ramsey advice in general, but the housing market varies wildly from city to city. I'm in Toronto Canada and it's one of the most expensive housing markets in the world. My condo (only 697 sq ft) was $460k preconstruction.... and that was about $40k cheaper than all the others in the area. Luckily I have no debt and am below the 30% of take home pay going to my mortgage. But I'm not sure I'll ever be able to afford something larger. (Although I am saving up!!)
Suzee Orman also talks about a 6 to 8 emergency fund. That helped my daughter when she was job searching.
We are just starting our journey to get out of debt. (We are glad our home is paid off)
I wish you had the every dollar app available in Canada. I found a different one, but would have liked to try yours.
Great video! I really do have a question. For someone with less than $40K to invest, how would you recommend we enter the stock market?
Because they are used to bull markets, most people find it difficult to handle a decline, but if you know where to search and how to get around, you can make a sizable profit. It depends on how you plan to enter and leave.
I took charge of my portfolio but faced losses in 2022. Realizing the need for a change, I sought advice from a fiduciary advsor. Through restructuring and diversification with dividend stocks, ETFS, Mutual funds, and REITs,my $1.2m portfolio surged, yielding an annulized gain of 28%
How do we determine a set number for emergency fund ?
