It’s like the entire world face palmed when this dude said he has 400k saved and his wife wants a house that costs 45k. Man you better buy that house and throw in extra for good measure
Yep maybe put in flooring to cover the dirt flooring, put up drywall to keep the elements out and new roofing to block out the sun and rain! All she desires is a SHACK and he moans and groans! Geeez 🤦🏻♀️
Not "he" has saved 400 k. _They_ did. They are married for 4 years, probably together for longer (oldest daughter is 6), 3 kids, and a part time job (maybe for a healthcare plan). And she is there when the help does not show up.
He really just said this is "a question on his wife's spending habits..." And then went on to explain that she doesn't want to live in a house that literally smells like a pigsty, and would rather buy the current home they are living in for $45,000. Dude. She doesn't have a spending problem. She just doesn't want to smell pig poop all day. And the house she is asking to buy is the cheapest house I've ever heard of. To reiterate: your wife does not have a spending problem. 🤦🏼♀️🤣
This is the kind of man who complains that there are no good women out there. He wouldn’t know one if he married one… case in point. If she had enough and divorced him, she’d take more than half with 3 kids in the mix. It’s also obvious that he doesn’t think what she does is work. That woman is taking care of 3 kids, 2 of which are twins and she still works part time plus helps with the farm, and she has a spending problem because she doesn’t want to live in a pig sty. What an immature child he is…
@@jg6693 literally basically taking credit for all the work , then complaining when his wife finally asks something from him(based on how he acts I bet she don’t ask for things often) he throws a temper tantrum. And it wasn’t even expensive at all, especially for a whole house , anyone would dream for a house that cheap , yet he’s complaining because it’s a change to “his life style” not even considering his wife and children are rotting in hog Oder , and honestly he probably don’t mind that smell cause he’s used to it or smells like it to, I feel so bad for those wife and kids 😭😭
This reminds me of a short story I read long ago, so I don't remember all the details. It was about a farmer who let his house fall apart but built a brand new barn for his animals. He came home one day to find his wife had moved the animals into the house and moved the family into the barn. Dude, buy your wife that house if that's the one she wants. It's affordable and it's so little to make her happy. Good luck.
He has 400k in savings and he thinks his wife has a spending problem because she wants a 45k house? She really loves him. I would have jumped ship with that sort of mentality.
The dude rightfully has his mind laser focused on business...to make money 💰 for his family. In this case, there has to be a little give and take for his wife.
At first I was ready to defend him when he said "spending habits"... but then she just doesn't want to smell like a pig farm, now I'm with her. Then he says the house is $45k..... dude? You are risking your marriage over $45k when you have $400k banked? BUY THE HOUSE, and don't complain about it.
To be fair for the guy, she did literally marry a pig farmer, of which he was living next to the pigs at the time. Kinda comes with the territory. That's about all the devis advocacy I can muster. All in all dude needs to just buy the dirt cheap house and be grateful she only wants a 45k house.

My husband would have a huge problem with this guy. My husband has an equipment rental business. Anytime I say this he corrects me with “we.” He refers to every piece of equipment as “ours” and insists that without the little computer work I did establishing the LLC and financial issues it wouldn’t be anything; plus, he wouldn’t be able to focus at all if I didn’t handle homeschooling our boys, taking care of most of the home chores, and being in charge of our personal budget. (FYI, I have no clue what the equipment names are or how to run them.) My husband gets pissed at family and friends who have separate bank accounts and view our sole income as just his.

I have a lot of farmers in my family. The smell of hog farm is nauseating. It gets in your clothes, if you have a well it probably seeps into the water, it's just NASTY.
This guy is incredibly selfish and stingy. He doesn't care about anything else. It is extremely important to have a clear boundary between home and work. He doesn't recognize it. He absolutely sucks at taking care of his wife.
Most of u gals go on and on about his wife looking after 3 kids. How times have changed. My mother had 7 and her grandmother gave birth to 16. I'm same age as Dave. I don't recall a single comment from any of you about how much work might be involved in raising hundreds of hogs. He's 31, he'll figure it out. Sounds like he found an awesome wife. Also sounds like he was taught to think twice before jumping into his savings and start throwing money around like an idiot. The more comments I read the more I appreciate my wife. Seems like there's not as many around anymore that don't come with a bunch of snark and attitude.
And that’s how you know she’s a good woman. She’s just asking to live in another piece of 💩 house but just one that doesn’t smell like 🐷. So sad. He obviously controls the fk out of her.
@@megalodon1726 He's in Davenport IA it's a small city, part of the Quad City's so altogether it's about 120,000 people. Not a small town but not a big city. It's probably a dump though, even in Davenport that's a good price.
There are fewer, if any, farming or industrial processes that smell worse than pigs. Fifty years ago my ex and I did some serious cross country driving and we discovered that we could smell a hog farm several miles still down the road. I don't blame the wife, and I'm very grateful for men like Michael feeding me.
I'm the first person to say that expensive things that don't bring in money is just a shiny bauble but some baubles you really can't live without. A wife that's not losing her mental health because she's got to raise 3 young kids amidst the smell of hogs is a pretty worthwhile bauble.
@@MrMustangrickyou can say a lot about Rachel and her upbringing, but you can’t fault her for not wanting to live in pig shit stench. Most people would agree with her disgust
I think he's just useless at being a husband, but even greater at being a businessman. To me it sounded like he listened to what Dave had to say.. I sure hope so, for his wife's sake 😂
Dave is so wonderful at imparting wisdom to young men. I live in central North Carolina and the eastern parts have massive hog farms. Just driving thru on the way to the beach, the smell is unbearable! Keeping car windows closed doesn't help because the stench seeps in and permeates EVERYTHING. This young man's wife is more precious than rubies - to quote the Bible
I have several a few miles away from my house. When the air is dry and the wind shifts I can smell them way over here. It's faint, but it's definitely there.
He's 31 and on his way to becoming a multimillionaire. I'm certain he drives an inexpensive vehicle and wears clothes from Walmart or Target. This is the way.
Woah for real? I'm so excited. Sonia silvia strategy has normalised winning trades for me also. and it's a huge milestone for me looking back to how it all started
Love your wife. Nope. Buy the house. If you want your marriage to stay together buy her the house. You married a good woman. She’s willing to put up with the business and you’re most likely a good business men but your wife deserves to live a life of what brings her joy. Buy the house. Do it for her and your marriage
Michael needs to buy the house for his family and then give his wife $5k or $10k to fix up the house how she wants it. Curtains, new bedroom set, laundry room whatever. Michael sounds like a guy that could convince himself his wife doesn't need a washer/dryer in the house. Michael, not everyone gets satisfaction from looking at a spread sheet! She might need to do something more creative, or have a party or give some away.
@TopShot501st we didn't say it was trashy. There are a vast array of types of homes across America. We face palmed because it's only 45 freaking thousand. Buy the darn house.
There are actually a remarkable number of houses for sale for under $50K in Davenport, some of which look livable in the real estate ads I gather it's not an economic powerhouse, but if you like quiet and simple or are looking for somewhere to hide. . .
Reading these comments shows me how most of the listeners are not from farm country. I grew up in Iowa, this dude is 1000% exactly what every single farmer there is like.
@@pneron2032 that, and agriculture is their whole livelihood and extremely unpredictable. You get one virus or really bad blizzard and bam, all your hogs are gone and you have to start over.
Yes she must love him a lot to marry a hog farmer. Now he needs to love her in return and not only buy the house, but schedule a home improvement budget so she can decorate it a bit. Women need a nest.
Hope the caller reads these comments. I gotta tell him he better not only buy that 45k house but surprise her with a little upgrade right after. Fix up the kitchen, bathroom or something. Cuz she might sound like she's on board at the moment, but if he continues to not value her she'll be gone before the oldest is even 18 and take the kids with her.
I live in Iowa and know a little bit about residential real estate. Believe me when I tell you, a $45k house is going to be lacking some amenities. Like indoor plumbing. Also, that hog farm smell doesn’t wash off. They always said “it’s the smell of money”, but if money smelled like that, I’d take a vow of poverty.
The money is pretty good, but there's substantial risk. It's also backbreaking horrible smelling work. Takes quite a bit of investment, too. But, hey, check it out. May work for you.
The whole "you keep saying I, their is no I, it's we" statement reminds me of my father. Their is no love in their relationship and he recently made the claim "I will not be buying her another car, she can pay for it herself". He literally does not understand how dumb of a statement that is. It's not like he is even the "breadwinner" with her as a stay at home parent. Both worked their whole life, and at the time of that comment, my father was retired while my mother still worked >_
I have personally never been around hogs but I have a friend who has and he said pig poop is a whole different ball game. He said it smell way worse than other animals and if you get it on anything the amell never comes out.

I don't recall a single comment from any of you about how much work might be involved in raising hundreds of hogs. He's 31, he'll figure it out. Sounds like he found an awesome wife. Also sounds like he was taught to think twice before jumping into his savings and start throwing money around like an idiot. The more comments I read the more I appreciate my wife. Seems like there's not as many around anymore that don't come with a bunch of snark and attitude.
Buy your wife a nicer house than a 45k house. The house must be a dump for that price.
He's probably paying $300 in rent
And that’s how you know she’s a good woman. She’s just asking to live in another piece of 💩 house but just one that doesn’t smell like 🐷. So sad. He obviously controls the fk out of her.
It might be a special low price because the landlord liked them. And probably in a very rural area.
@@megalodon1726 He's in Davenport IA it's a small city, part of the Quad City's so altogether it's about 120,000 people. Not a small town but not a big city. It's probably a dump though, even in Davenport that's a good price.
Come to ca My home worth 1.2 million Bought in 1999 for $271,000 Parents passed paid off balance Seems like this caller inherited is parents house
There are fewer, if any, farming or industrial processes that smell worse than pigs. Fifty years ago my ex and I did some serious cross country driving and we discovered that we could smell a hog farm several miles still down the road. I don't blame the wife, and I'm very grateful for men like Michael feeding me.
I'm the first person to say that expensive things that don't bring in money is just a shiny bauble but some baubles you really can't live without. A wife that's not losing her mental health because she's got to raise 3 young kids amidst the smell of hogs is a pretty worthwhile bauble.
Look at Rachel’s face when the caller is talking about the smell of the hog farm at the house at the beginning of the call! 😂
Yes Nepo baby is grossed out.
@@MrMustangrickyou can say a lot about Rachel and her upbringing, but you can’t fault her for not wanting to live in pig shit stench. Most people would agree with her disgust
@@MrMustangrick Pretty much anyone would be grossed out.
@@MrMustangrickShe works & always has. Hate somewhere else
@@MrMustangrick The house is too close to the hogs and it smells. I bet the callers wife makes the same face every day of her life.
BOY IF YOU DON'T BUY THAT DADGUM HOUSE RIGHT TF NOW
Hahaha period
I love u
Rachel recognizing the me, myself, and I was very important. You are a team. And everything you have is hers. And vice versa.
Lmao I was totally ready for him to say the house she wanted was $2 million
🚨Racheal is laughing cause she knew papa Dave was about to bring the hammer on this hog lover. Loves his hogs more than his wife 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I think he's just useless at being a husband, but even greater at being a businessman. To me it sounded like he listened to what Dave had to say.. I sure hope so, for his wife's sake 😂
Buy that poor woman a house❤🎉
He sounds like someone who could sell propane and propane accessories.
I tell you what
Hank Hill for president!
Dave is so wonderful at imparting wisdom to young men. I live in central North Carolina and the eastern parts have massive hog farms. Just driving thru on the way to the beach, the smell is unbearable! Keeping car windows closed doesn't help because the stench seeps in and permeates EVERYTHING. This young man's wife is more precious than rubies - to quote the Bible
It is a horrible stench. She wants a place in town? Get it!
Buy the house AND fix it up for her.
Our main interstate goes by a hog farm and it is TERRIBLE. I couldn’t imagine living there. Nope
I live in mid NC and when we drive east to the beach the smell is unbearable.
I have several a few miles away from my house. When the air is dry and the wind shifts I can smell them way over here. It's faint, but it's definitely there.
Rachel’s facial expressions tell everything 😂😂😂
She's the mother of your heirs, man. She's your queen.
Big energy
Rachel trying to keep a straight face 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rachel’s grimace through the hog farm description. 😂
He's 31 and on his way to becoming a multimillionaire. I'm certain he drives an inexpensive vehicle and wears clothes from Walmart or Target. This is the way.
Couple 90 models ford pick ups
Rachel face too funny, Dave was enjoying the call
Some wives are wanting to buy a car that's twice as much as this house. in 5 years the house could be worth $90,000 the car, $15,000
Over $900k for a shed??? Talk about living high on the hog 🤷🏾♂️✊🏾
45000 is a trailer in a mobile home park dont call it a house
It's in Iowa, and the previous owner may have written a discount into his will
The hogs get to live in in a 900k house while to hog owners struggle to decide if a $45k house is too much house for them.
This one bit of advice probably really helped to bolster (dare I say “save?”) this guy’s marriage.
Synchronized eyebrow raisage going on @0:20
We grew up on a hog farm. Mom was always happy when the wind was from the south 😂
Gotta agree with Dave on this. This guy has got to take better care of his wife.
Hit 200k today. Thank you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started with 14k in last month 2024

Wow that's huge, how do you make that much monthly?
I'm 37 and have been looking for ways to be successful, please how??
Sincerely speaking.... I will continue to trade / and stick to expert so nia Si l via / daily signals and guides as long as it works well for me.....
Woah for real? I'm so excited. Sonia silvia strategy has normalised winning trades for me also. and it's a huge milestone for me looking back to how it all started
I'm new at this, please how can I reach her?"
Rachel’s face is priceless ❤
Rachel’s facial expressions are priceless! Her face clearly says, “no way am I living in a house that smells like hogs.”
45k. Buy it. Who want that smell in their house?
He’s a hillbilly, they don’t mind the smell of raw sewage. Matter of fact, he probably prefers it 😂
Love your wife. Nope. Buy the house. If you want your marriage to stay together buy her the house. You married a good woman. She’s willing to put up with the business and you’re most likely a good business men but your wife deserves to live a life of what brings her joy. Buy the house. Do it for her and your marriage
This was so southern and so funny. I love it. God bless Michael
Happy spouse, happy house! It's a partnership, not a one sided venture.
I hope u mean both should be happy in the house, not all about her
@@jamalj8660 Obviously. I said spouse, not wife, and, not a one sided venture.
Rachel’s facial expressions in the first few minutes are priceless.
Rachel saying “Oh, Michael…” pretty much sums it all up 😂 Take care of your wife, dude
Michael needs to buy the house for his family and then give his wife $5k or $10k to fix up the house how she wants it. Curtains, new bedroom set, laundry room whatever. Michael sounds like a guy that could convince himself his wife doesn't need a washer/dryer in the house. Michael, not everyone gets satisfaction from looking at a spread sheet! She might need to do something more creative, or have a party or give some away.
Yep
This is the greatest call in the history of the show.
Nothing can ever rival the tuba degree for $300,000

The moment he said the house was only $45k I was on his wife’s side.
TBH $45k for probably a 100 year old house in a rural Iowa town isn't as trashy as it sounds.
@TopShot501st we didn't say it was trashy. There are a vast array of types of homes across America. We face palmed because it's only 45 freaking thousand. Buy the darn house.
Christ! Where can you buy a $45k house here in California. You can't even get a one car parking space for this amount.
There are actually a remarkable number of houses for sale for under $50K in Davenport,
some of which look livable in the real estate ads
I gather it's not an economic powerhouse, but if you like quiet and simple or are looking for somewhere to hide. . .
This is the first time I’ve ever heard Dave tell someone to buy a house and it’s definitely warranted 😂
Buy the house!!!😂😂😂😂😂 and throw in another $55k for updates😂😂😂
Love Dave talking on the show. He's not afraid of saying "Honey, or you suck" to the caller
Reading these comments shows me how most of the listeners are not from farm country. I grew up in Iowa, this dude is 1000% exactly what every single farmer there is like.
Do you mean they focus on work all the time?
@@pneron2032 that, and agriculture is their whole livelihood and extremely unpredictable. You get one virus or really bad blizzard and bam, all your hogs are gone and you have to start over.
So wots the divorce rate in davenport? 😊
YOU MUST BE A PRIZE 😂😂😂😂😂 LIVING NEXT TO A HOG SHED
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes she must love him a lot to marry a hog farmer. Now he needs to love her in return and not only buy the house, but schedule a home improvement budget so she can decorate it a bit. Women need a nest.
Daves face at 1:50!!!!!! I literally can't
The camera change dead on was hilarious
Hope the caller reads these comments. I gotta tell him he better not only buy that 45k house but surprise her with a little upgrade right after. Fix up the kitchen, bathroom or something. Cuz she might sound like she's on board at the moment, but if he continues to not value her she'll be gone before the oldest is even 18 and take the kids with her.
I live in Iowa and know a little bit about residential real estate. Believe me when I tell you, a $45k house is going to be lacking some amenities. Like indoor plumbing. Also, that hog farm smell doesn’t wash off. They always said “it’s the smell of money”, but if money smelled like that, I’d take a vow of poverty.
i understood that it's not the rental that has the smell, they rented to be away from the house that smells
How much are the companies paying him to take care of the pigs ??? Lmao maybe I need to get out there 🤭😭
The money is pretty good, but there's substantial risk. It's also backbreaking horrible smelling work. Takes quite a bit of investment, too.
But, hey, check it out. May work for you.
@@EmpressMermaid I hate stepping in the mud lol trust me I know for a fact I couldnt raise farm animals 😭
@@here2laff397You would be stepping in more than just mud taking care of a bunch of farm animals.
I love how Rachel was nodding her head! BUY THE HOUSE!!!
The husband is good he actually listened! Happy for them!
@3:00 you can hear the wife laughing at Dave’s response 😂
That shed he’s saving up for will literally be over 20 times the value of where he & family will live 🤦🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️✊🏾
Honestly I believe it housing is really only dumb in large areas middle of nowhere land and housing is cheap, but no jobs
Lmao this part 2:19 took me out 😂😂, all you think about is HOGS 😂😂😂.
Buy the house thr wife needs something
Typical Midwest farmer, thinking of the business over family. Like he said, the same family who shows up to help when no one else does.
Rachel’s face this entire time is priceless. 😅
Rachel's face the whole time is hilarious!
The hog shed is 9 times as expensive as the house…
The whole "you keep saying I, their is no I, it's we" statement reminds me of my father.
Their is no love in their relationship and he recently made the claim "I will not be buying her another car, she can pay for it herself".
He literally does not understand how dumb of a statement that is. It's not like he is even the "breadwinner" with her as a stay at home parent. Both worked their whole life, and at the time of that comment, my father was retired while my mother still worked >_
I'm gonna push back on one thing: he said "not a Cinderella" and by god that was one hard working virtous woman
Rachel’s facial expressions on this episode are awesome! This guy is a donkey 😂
I have personally never been around hogs but I have a friend who has and he said pig poop is a whole different ball game. He said it smell way worse than other animals and if you get it on anything the amell never comes out.
