Married for 3 years, she got a free lexus, motorcycle, half a 401k, half a house, all her debt paid off, and probably a xmas bonus on top. All from a trucker's salary. All enforced by "the law". What a disgusting institution marriage has become in the US.
… and people look at others weird when they talk poorly about marriage and not wanting it.
This is disgusting. There are days I wish I was in a relationship. Then I see this and realize that im better off single. Men lose in divorce.
No, marriage is great. The problem is that he shouldn't have married her. They obviously didn't talk about finances before they decided to hook up.
My wife and I were on the same page BEFORE marriage, and we've been happily married for 41 years with a paid-off house and no debt.
Don't blame marriage. Blame the people.

@@getinthespace7715 I highly doubt this guy will follow your advice, but that's exactly what he needs to do. There are people who are destined to be poor their entire lives, and there is nothing you can tell them or teach them, they have it all figured out. Unfortunately these type of people make up the majority of this country.
They marry you for 3 years and take half your shit. What hurts the most is they knew they will leave you before they said yes I do.
He's lucky, if you watch Forensic Files a lot of women literally marry a guy just to poison him and collect insurance.
@@robloxvids2233 😳 never thought of that.
I used to live by a lady with 4 kids by 4 different guys….never worked a day in her life. I asked another neighbor that knew her what she did for a living. His answer? She’s a professional divorce’ and breeder. Her alimony and child support was more than I made with a doctorate in engineering. And she paid zero taxes.
This is why the trend against marriage is growing with so many younger men. Divorces are no fault anymore so all these women have to do is be nice enough to get you to marry them and then like you said, take half. I'm union and my buddy went through this a couple of years ago. He married a woman, took care of her kids as his own and their biological dad never paid a dime, treated the woman like a queen. At the 10 year mark everything changed. She moved out with zero warning, filed for divorce and ended up with half his 401k, half his pension and half the savings. She had been a part time server at a little restaurant during their marriage so she made maybe 10% of the household income. He found out during the divorce she had been cheating on him for a couple of years. Why work your ass off, do the right thing and then just hand half of it over to some woman who was only in it for the money anyway?
@@robloxvids2233 Scary but true!!!
Why anyone would get a brand new truck with almost $1K monthly payment plus insurance while having $35K in CC debt and no savings? Talk irresponsible. I feel sorry for him going thru divorce but he also needs to reconsider his life priorities.
because in their mind they deserve a nice vehicle
This guy has a "poor person's mindset." This guy will never get ahead. He will be digging himself new holes as fast as he can dig himself out of other holes for the rest of his life. There are many like him.
Yes, it literally boggles my mind. I make significantly more than him and I drive a 30 year old Jeep.
Because somebody approved the loan, so why not?
This guy is not "financially smart". Anyone who pays nearly a grand in monthly truck payments was suckered. Suckered by dealership salesman, suckered by his wife, suckered by other debtors... stop being the sucker, dude.
This sounds like what happened to a guy I went to school with. He dated a girl for a little over a month when she told him she was pregnant and he had to marry her. Friends told him to call her bluff and make her prove it, we even gave him the name of clinics to take her to.
He married her. They rented a nice apartment and he filled it with financed goodies. He financed car for them. Obviously, she was not pregnant ('big surprise).A year or so later she wants a divorce, and it was ugly. She dragged it out over how to split the the stuff HE had paid for while they were married. He met with her and her lawyer several times and she was never satisfied. He told us their final meeting lasted about fifteen minutes; he told the judge he was done and ready to sign the paperwork. All he wanted was his truck (it was paid for and he had it before he married); she could have everything else he had paid for.
She was stunned and apparently not happy. He said it was as if she did not really want to divorce him and maybe hoped he would beg her to take him back. The divorce was granted and he never looked back. He eventually married and had three kids.
Dude got taken for a ride, crashed hard and then got in again...this guy is an idiot 😂
That sounds like literally any dude that gets married and then divorced 😂
He basically didn't learn any lessons at all.

"You are being managed by emotion because your heart is broken one minute, you are pissed the next minute, and you are broke and terrified the next minute."

Not potentially…She will get half of everything acquired during marriage.

Well, Dave is right about marriage, but people aren’t responsible about getting married. They don’t make thought out decisions about who they’re marrying and why they want them as a spouse. They just think typically “I love them, that’s enough.”
This couple clearly didn't go through premarriage counseling nor were they on the same page about money, before & during marriage.

But I'm in a separation and at the time I shared her car because I had a motorcycle, but now I dry a motorcycle and the only thing I miss about that truck (not the payment), is a roof over my head. Today I got drenched in rain on my way into work and sat in wet clothes all day.
But you got to keep the UA-cam account. Congrats!
Why not just buy a economy car like a normal person? Problem is people think they need these pick up trucks to haul around their egos

Awesome advice. I was even relieved when Dave laid it out like that and portioned up the sections into digestable pieces. Poor guy, wife goes shopping he saves for retirement and in the end wifey (hopefully doesn't) get half of it. Caller sounds like a good, hard-working man, goes to show how important it is to be discerning who you trust. And not just men, I'm a woman and I've had to take a hit too due to a financially irresponsible guy (earning twice as much as me but still managed to spend it all and drag me into debt). One year everything will be much different and better, just be smart these couple months. All the best to us all 🙏

Of all the Dave Ramsey videos I've seen this one is probably the best advice I've ever heard given to a person who called.
I hope this guy takes Dave's advice exactly as given.
Getting rid of her now is the best thing for him. He's young enough to get his life together. It's too bad he took out such a large loan on the pickup but he is just like millions of others.
Problem is he will probably jump into another relationship with a new woman when the first one comes along and is nice to him. Problem is he could be stepping in it all over again.
The woman wasn’t nearly as much of a problem as his own financially decisions, according to the things he listed that he purchased.
" just like millions of others" True!!! My buddy has a shop next to a repo business. When I'm there, you should see how many people come to claim their cars or to collect personal belongings on a daily basis. Also many car haulers in and out picking up cars.

Man, I love Dave's straightforward advice
Dave’s biggest mistake is assuming a judge will split everything 50/50. Most judges won’t. She’ll get 75% of the house and 401K and he’ll get 75% of the debt. His lawyer doesn’t seem that great either.
Most judges will keep it ALL for themselves. That's how divorce court works in America.
Not every lawyer is actually good. Some just flex the title of a lawyer but aren’t good at their job.
That’s only if child custody is in involved. There’s no child involved so most states should do 50/50 for that matter.
Also, what I meant by ‘not good’ is not every lawyer truly knows the law that they study. It’s merely an interpretation aka opinion of the said-laws. Don’t get me wrong, lawyers know more than the Average Joe or Jill but they make mistakes too and it’s up the judge to decide what to believe. However, the Judge doesn’t always make the right decision either but that’s another can of worms.
If it were a woman calling he would tell her to get the "meanest" lawyer that she can find. Ramsey is a joke.
Dave, $740 was the national average for a new car payment a few months back. This is only 25% more than that, all trucks cost this much now. What has to stop is the price of vehicles going up because in case you haven't been looking around, there are no cheap ones anymore. You can expect to pay 15-20K for a very very POS used one now. Prices doubled to tripled since Covid. Most trucks new are close to 100K now out the door.
We paid about $740/month on a 36-month 0% loan back in 2018 for a Dodge Durango, and that was after about a $10,000 down payment. $900 doesn’t shock me at all.
For a truck around 600-700 in monthly payments, the mileage exceeds 140k pretty regularly from what i've seen. A 7-950 truck payment seems like the norm now for a fairly newer truck. This is why i strayed away from Dave is because of the disconnect from the everyday person the more our economy slips.
Since biden took office, but dumbies keep voting democrat
Maybe don't buy a new vehicle? I don't understand how people think it's better to go into massive debt at crazy interest rates rather than buy a reliable used car for $10k and then pay a qualified mechanic $3k to $5k for a complete overhaul. If you have the cash, sure, but most people seem to be needlessly drowning themselves.
@@yamamancha Reliable car for $10k in the post-covid economy?... In that price range you're talking about cars with 70-90k (average) mileage. $5k could cover complete suspension wear and tear replacement, brakes, tires, other minors. But any engine issues are a whole different ballgame. Buying at that price you're adding an element of randomness to if you get a car that lasts 50k miles without major issues, or 10k miles before you're in the hole for a $9k trans. Especially if you buy a Chrysler/Stelantis product .. lol (I'm a mechanic)
Not all heroes wear capes and Dave is one of them!!
Some of the best advice I've heard from Dave.
I normally put 2k into my retirement and then brokerage pretending I have a car debt of 2k/mth. 976 is a lot. I had a car debt of 195/mth and worked overtime to pay it off.
This is great advice from Dave!
This is exactly why I’m not interested in getting married. It’s hard to find fiscally responsible people who you’re compatible with and like being around. No thanks. Being single is drama free and wonderful!
I found me a Christian woman who shares my faith. In the ever increasingly godless society you need shared values. I don't know where to find those outside of the church.
Yep, I have a friend who got married at 22, divorced at 24. He’s now 45. He’s had a few girlfriends since the divorce, but nothing longer than a year.

Prime example on why men shouldn’t sign a contract that rewards the woman that break it 💯💯
he was in debt before he got married, so credit councelling is needed, lots of men have broken contracts as well.
The most important thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies
The key to big returns is not big moving stocks. It's managing risk in relationship to reward. Having the correct size on and turning your edge as many times as necessary to reach your goal. That holds true from long term investing to day trading.
Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others, as an investor, you should’ve known that by now, nothing beats experience and that’s final, personally I had to reach out to a market analyst for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to a million, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I’m buying again

Agreed. In the coming decade, the marriage market will increasingly favor men. Stupid men will continue to marry broke women and become broke themselves.

When you buy a new truck nowadays, there’s literally about $11k to pay for on top of the actual truck you’re buying. Taxes, fees, GAP insurance, delivery charge of nearly $3k, dealer profit. Not a shocker he’s not ahead on a 2023.
I love the matching shirts guys! Lol
Good advice Dave
Great call
Been there, done that, judge gave her the T shirt.
Unlikely. You mean the judge kept the T shirt for themselves.
Your wife is the biggest financial decision of your life.
well you obviously dont put any value in marriage, it's all about the money and satisfying needs with a lot of men isn't it?
@asimskentzos9231 There is value in marriage, but there are also a lot of women out there who are intentionally with a man just for their money. Most divorces are filed by women, and most child support payments/alimony is paid by men. The divorce rate is 50% with a high chance of the man losing half their assets in a divorce. Not viewing this financially is probably the biggest mistake a man can make in their lives.
Don’t buy semi. Freight volume and prices are dropping like a rock. I drive for one of the biggest LTL and have friends who are OTR. Don’t do it.
I love the way Dave gives wonderful wisdom and common sense advice❤
Put everything in a trust fund to avoid situations like this.
Just make sure your attorney does the paperwork right!! My attorney screwed up the paperwork and my ex got my truck and $9k which was the agreement then another $18k she was never entitled to!!
She probably paid off or slept with your attorney or a mix of the both.
Great advice.
This Guy is amazing ❤
Stay strong brother, i had a friend that worked at GM kill himself for something like this
Sad new a few did that
i was 70k deep in debt at 20 i have 2kids and a wife who was also 10k deep in debt im 27 her birthday’s tomorrow she turns 28 and we’re debt free “GOOD THINGS ARE COMING”
Good advice.
I really feel bad for the guy, I had a similar situation. A two-year marriage cost me $31,000
He can’t pay the payment on a pickup truck. How’s he going (if he could get financing) going to afford a payment on a semi ??
“The problem with divorce is, it turns a marriage into a business transaction.” Oh Pappa Dave sadly we’re living in different times. He signed that contract the day he got married he just didn’t read the small fine prints and he’s a truck driver he definitely was getting cheated on while he was away he just didn’t caught on to it. That woman wanted the divorce once she was sure the grass was greener on the other side. Three years and no kids she wanted out the first year of marriage she was just waiting for the right time.
I owe $10,000 left on my car. Very good car. I got the itch to buy a new truck since the dealer was offering me some good equity in my vehicle. Was about to trade it in and my 6yo said “daddy you don’t need a new truck”
I listened and left. So thankful she said that.
I paid my 2014 Cherokee in cash $9k. 🎉🎉
Be careful who you get married with. No one’s perfect but you can definitely set you and your future spouse up for more success when you’re careful.
One of the most terrifying things about marriage is no fault and that a woman can say something as simple as “I’m not happy” and take at least half your stuff and weaponized the kids against you among other things.
@@blackworldtraveler3711 Should she stay if she's not happy??
Sounds like these kids are two peas in a pod. Neither one of them will ever get ahead. They will both be in debt their entire lives and own nothing. You can just tell.
@@deirdrekiely6187 None of them are happy, too many Chad's and Tyrone's out there
@@deirdrekiely6187
I didn’t say anything about staying.
When did leaving stop someone from taking half, delaying court proceedings, creating drama, weaponizing kids,etc..?
And this is why I never got married. With such a high divorce rate, added to the ex getting half of everything I worked hard for, it's just not worth the risk. I'll just date forever.
That's good advice I'll never need
970 for truck payment lol. It's almost my mortgage payment.
The moral of the story is, don't get married.
Our first mortgage wasn’t 970 a month!! (It was 875). Why would anyone buy a car with that kind of payment!?!? Insane.
Americans love their trucks!
I always see these working class to middle class guys driving 70 k to 90 k trucks......half of them do not even have a trailer hitch on them and you can tell they are not hauling anything in the bed....it is a total vanity buy....the smart guys that need a powerful truck for construction type work buy the paired down work trucks with crank manual windows and am/fm radio and no other bells and whistles.....the same guys that have a 900 dollar truck payment cry and blame Joe Biden and the country in general for having no money and not being able to buy a house...i love it...i hope they will always be in dept and never get ahead....total man-boys....
@@US_ARMY_25_INF._DIV. imagine buying a 90k truck to throw cinder blocks and plywood in so it can bounce around the bed and dent it up. These truck prices are so insane.
Bought my house in 1995, payment was $647/month. These all hat no cattle guys driving around in pickup trucks are not too bright
I agree, there's a lot of money unaccounted for here.
I have a theory that only about 10% of the callers that are on Dave's show actually tell the entire truth. They're not technically lying, but they never go into every single detail.
Case in Point. That's why you don't get married or go into debt.
