Caleb, maybe in addition to the Hammer Financial Score, you should also give a Risk Of Homelessness score. Like who is going to rent to someone with a 400 credit score and utilities in collections? There’s a lot of folks on your show that are a few more bad decisions away from living on the streets 😢
@@Nat-hu4gqyup. My uncle (marriage, not blood) was worth hundreds of millions through his dad giving him the leg up. They lived in like a 3 bedroom house and had "nice" cars but they were like 1980s BMW/Mercedes in the early 2000s 😂 He's since passed and that whole side of the family I guess bought a beach house, but I guess it's open to extended family AND the further you go down the line the more likely the next generation is to f*ck everything up. It was just interesting watching my uncle. Also, generational wealth is a half myth when you look at the stats of family fortunes
I also found it interesting how the behavioral therapist is seen flipping out in the intro of the video. It’s never rational to raise your voice when frustrated
@@oldkingcrow777there’s some interesting studies that 2/3 families lose all generational wealth within 3 generations. Old money sticks cause it’s in trusts and contracts and has strict rules. New money is gone within 100 years.
So this guy just openly admitted that he works with children with developmental disabilities but will not put in effort to be there for his own child with a developmental disability? Got it. 😵💫
"I bought groceries one time, but then I ate them all :( so I had to start buying Taco bell again" bc youre only allowed to go grocery shopping once a year
10 mins in, and I read this comment! HES GOT A KID?!?! Like common these people are insane. My parents sacrificed A LOT, we ate beans and rice almost every day. Mans wyldyn spending dumb money on door dash.
The fact that Caleb had gone through all of his financials and had no idea he had a child should tell people everything they need to know about what kind of dad he is
@@deannaluna3490The judgement should be on this deadbeat. The mother appears to be caring for the child with disabilities all by herself while this wannabe DJ is living his (unproductive) life and contributing nothing.
@@OkiChick302 Honestly, it almost serves the mother right for irresponsibly picking a Ν despite having easy access to the fatherlessness statistics and knowing how it was likely to end.
@@brahtrumpwonbigly7309No they’re not. There are plenty of wealthy individuals who are good with money but will ignore their partner and children’s needs cause it’s not their responsibility.
He had an 8yr old son with Down syndrome and he moved to Austin on a whim to make content. Leaving the mom to completely take care of the kid on her own?! This is so super sad
he didnt even wanna bring up his kid, he was embarrassed to be not supporting him, his first statement shoulda been I would like to save money to support my family
not only does he support his homies before his own kid. he takes care of other kids with disabilities but not his son with disabilities. he is a mega loser.
Dude moved away from his kid, doesn’t pay child support, and then uses his kid’s disability as a pity me moment. Ridiculous. Grow up. Instead of being obsessed with Nacho Fries, be obsessed with giving two fs about your kid.
Kids with disabilities are written off an impossible to help. Those babies are at the mercy of the love of their parents. I would know. I have one. Not what I imagined my life would be, and it is hard, but they put out what you put in to them, and it's EXTREMELY rewarding to see those little wins. But people often write tge disabled off immediatelt as the news is devastating, to say the least.😢
He's a deadbeat. He could easily face punishment under the DDPA if the mom does the right thing and ask for child support in a court. Then he faces 2 years federal prison time once he doesn't pay, 80% served min.
@@miffedcuttlefish6139it’s made even worse by the fact he works with kids with disabilities. (Presumably) he doesn’t believe they’re unhelpable, and he actually has the skills and knowledge to at least attempt to help his kid (where many parents, somewhat understandably, have no idea what their children might need if they have disabilities and why special things they might need to do) and he still doesn’t do anything.
You know what’s not in the pie chart? The money he should be giving to support his child. You know who’s not just giving “what I can” to take care of his child? The mother. Absolutely disgraceful
@jenr854 the state actually comes after the Father for reimbursement of food stamps, medicaid, etc paid om behalf of the kid. They come many years later, but they will and do charge child support payable to the state government.
Dude buy a sack of potatoes, some canola oil, taco seasoning, and a can of El Rios jalapeño cheese sauce. $10 and you’ll be set for the month. Not paying for your disabled son over some cheese fries is WILD.
@@aang6421 for a healthier and easier option you can roast them on a baking sheet at 425 until nice and crispy, for a more true to fast food option you can deep fry them in the oil. If you fry them, let them rest a bit, then fry them again, then toss in the seasonings directly after frying they will be extra crispy and delicious. But the roasting is much easier and healthier. If I roast them I season them before cooking, if frying I season directly after.
Add some onions to that pile, and some milk, and potato soup is also an option. And lots of other things. Potatoes and onions can be used together in lots of different ways.
It's like these people don't understand that spending 150 dollars one time every 2 weeks or even weekly on groceries is FAR cheaper than spending 15 or 20 bucks twice a day on fast food.
He is about to be homeless but is spending over $20 a day on getting fast food delivered while driving without car insurance because it's expensive.... the thought process of this individual blows my mind considering he is a teacher.
Ikr?! Like I've been driving the same crappy car for years now bc insurance is so expensive (but slowly going down) and bro gets a BMW?! 😭 If he crashes it he just lost like, everything.
@@flor9345not unless he got GAP as well, GAP IIRC covers up to 150% of the total value of the car, basically if you total a 27k car and its value dropped to 18k, GAP will cover the depreciation value.
And there's literally zero reason for it. There are thousands of videos on UA-cam from creators of all walks of life showing you how to cook incredibly basic food. Whenever someone tells me they can't cook nowadays I just assume it's because they're lazy
No, it's not. Grow the hell up. Eating out all the time messes up your stomach. The emergency will come when he ends up at the ER with bad digestive issues.
@@nczioox1116exactly..and no way could I choose to be away from my kids...my lil guy is gunna be a year and 12 yr old daughter and no way I could do that
I thought he was just doing this as a joke, then the kid came up and im like.... WOW! What a father, lifes a joke but you got a little one to feed... sad sad.
I was checking out the comments right at the start of the video as a little preview, but this comment is making me click away. Sorry to Caleb and his team, but I can't stand these petty grabs for attention lol. It's like their brains are wired to care about such weird impractical things so much that they just don't put in any good faith effort into actually supporting the purpose of the show.
He lost me at the groceries. If you are broke and facing homeless, you don't worry about enjoying your food, you worry about surviving. When I was broke and surviving, I took the bus to the grocery store. Plain oatmeal for breakfast(no milk), PB&J's for lunch with a piece of fruit as a splurge. 2x a week I made a cheap soup or pasta dish with no meat that I could eat leftovers on for a few days. So, I don't have a lot of sympathy for someone that doordashes food and claims to be broke.
Beans and rice with cheap protein (like turkey), a bag of frozen vegetables + a random seasoning. Make a big pot of that and portion into containers for the week. It’s like $12-15 for a dozen adult sized portions. Does it taste great? Ehhhh. Is it nutritious? Yes.
A pack of chicken and uncle Ben's instant rice is like 10 bucks at my loal publix. throw in some veggies you have a balances meal. This guy is just lazy
If it's between shelter and food, shelter is what you pick every single time. It's far easier to get community assistance with food than it is housing.
@@VicvicWyou don't even need community assistance. You can get a cart full of food at grocery outlets for $50 and they're near almost every "poor" area. It's a lot harder to find a cheap place to live near where you work than to find cheap food 😂
There are many places to get food for free in Austin. People also often donate on Facebook free stuff groups. Ordering delivery is the most expensive thing you could do from many options available.
Thanks for saying bartending requires skill. Sometimes I feel like a failure as an adult because my path lead me behind the bar. But I really do love making cocktails. ❤
Dude, bartenders are awesome. It's not an easy job. Between the long, physical hours, the people you deal with, and the mental energy needed. You're always ON. You're doing awesome!
Did this dude literally say he bought groceries and then....ate them all...as a way to justify going back to doordashing? Does he not understand it's a recurrent task that needs to be completed?!! I cannoooooootttttt.
Fr, like does this dude also think "i put gas in my car and it did work and I drove around for a week, but then I used all the gas and now my car won't move anymore so I have to uber everywhere"
This guy started out being dishonest about his job, he’s not a teacher, he’s a para-pro if he’s making $18.50 an hour. He’s really good at deceiving himself and did throughout this entire convo.
@@helenr4300 , and FYI, this is VERY common when it comes to complaints about teacher pay in the US. Journalists will write pieces that feature someone like this guy, who isn't really a teacher and therefore isn't representative, or they will feature someone who is 23 and just graduated college who is in their first year teaching kindergarten and therefore they are at the very bottom (the first year) of the "pay schedule".
First he said teacher, then he said behavioral therapist... like, my guy, you can't just throw around professions that require licenses when you don't have one.
That is true. But you know what people don't get? Education on nutrition. Exercise is important for the cardiovascular system, but you can't outrun a bad diet. And guess what is cheaper? Ultraprocessed food. People with low income tend to become grossly overweight because of that.
They took out most comprehensive PE course from schools as ppl started getting bigger. Also you would be one of those overweight adults. You are buff as heck but the way the stats count ppl overweight does not care about that. Now I on the other hand am overweight because of taquitos.
@@toohdaYeah you're right because it normally means you're at fault then because you weren't supposed to be on the road so if you were following the law the accident would have never
It’s frustrating listening to someone almost in their 30s blame their money mismanagement on the fact that no one ever taught them. That’s such a poor excuse. No one taught you how to DoorDash but you seem to have picked that up pretty well.
Exactly! Even if it is true the adults in your childhood didn't properly teach you financial discipline...you can't go your whole adult life blaming it on them. At some point you have to teach yourself and change your life
@willmahan4161 I bet his parents didin't teach him how to set up streaming on Twitch... yet he did figure that out by himself. I wonder how he did that? Maybe an angel gave him that knowledge overnight or...he googled how?
The same ppl who say that there should be a financial literacy course in school are the same ppl who will skip said class and blame the edu system for their failures.
Exactly, our education system isn't perfect but I'm sick of people blaming school for being stupid even though they probably didn't even pay attention in school. If you care so much about what school or your parents didn't teach you, why don't you teach yourself with all the free time you have with limitless amount of information you can get with the internet? If people don't want to put in the effort to be wiser and responsible it's their own fault.
i've found, that paying attention in school and learning how to learn things, allows you to then go and do some self-education on other, more important matters.
The emotional baggage Caleb unintentionally has to carry after these episodes must be draining. Poor financial stability often means poor mental health.
@@Lenoxlanellc I am sorry to what happened to you and I hope you get better soon and I sincerely hope you don't poison other people's children with this childish nonsense IRL. Good luck, brother and stop being a whimp and confront your emotions like a big boy already! Your attitude is exactly what creates mental health cases like this. Much love (no homo) and good luck growing up
@Lenoxlanellc the name "Lucy" implies you responded to a female. About being a real man. And yes Caleb the host the most logical one on the show. Probably also has emotions to deal with. Not sure how I feel about emotional baggage but you used no logic or reason in your own response making you in your own definition not a real man. 🤔 idk just a quick note

I'm 58 years old. I've never used Door Dash, Uber, or had a Starbucks product. My house and all vehicles are paid off. We don't use credit cards and never went to college. I sleep well.
@@austingray6885 $1500 didn't change millions of people like that. Door dash and other services were on the rise long before the pandemic. Americans are addicted to convenience, it's been that way for a while now.
He's considered at fault for the wreck BECAUSE he didn't have insurance. It's his fault because he shouldn't have been on the road in the first place. That's how it works in Texas
Because a child is on SSD doesnt mean you dont have to still pay for the child, that is for their added needs and therapies, not basic care, thats still on the parents. Not like mom gets a discount when she takes care of little man
29-year-old man with an 8-year-old kid (special needs no less!!) talking about "wanting to take streaming seriously" but still on his mama's cell phone plan and was driving around a beemer he couldn't even finance on his own. And didn't even take out car insurance on it. I hope there's more to this story but this is just wild.
Why is the child support payment not included in the budget at all? His child’s mother needs to immediately have the courts put him on child support and have them vacuum the payment right off the top of his paycheck every month.
I wonder if she isn't pursuing it because she worries that if she gets child support, that opens up the possibility that he could get visitation. I've known women who have done that to protect their kids from dads who are wildly inconsistent, drop them off with new girlfriends, if they show up at all
@@staceyy6064This is something I don't understand; not putting dad on child support for fear of visitation. Given how he behaves and what he's been doing, plus the fact that he lives far away, visitation is not happening. She can ask for 100% time and she'd probably get it. She probably just doesn't want to deal with his nonsense.
For a guy who has no money and tried to get sympathy talking about being so depressed that he can't get out of bed, he sure does go to a lot of places via Uber
I came from a consumer household. My mom always having Amazon deliveries and she was purchasing even more when she got her motorcycle. She did instill the same values onto me and things were “I’ll just put it on my CC and pay it whenever” for a while. And when I got in over my head by maxing out my credit card at 5k at 21yo she just said “welcome to the real world.” I realized she had no money, at 53yo and had a mortgage, rusting out car, a 25k motorcycle, and credit cards up the yaza. She then didn’t have money for a roof replacement so I lent her 1500 and I was broke. Thats when I learned that I can’t get stuck like that. My mom was relying off my sister and I to house her when she gets old. She has no retirement, only 45k that lost 15k during covid and hasn’t recovered. As far as she and my sister know, I’m a broke 26yo. I’m too paranoid to have them know how much I make.
Don't ever tell her. Her bad decisions are not your responsibility to amend. Gotta take care of yourself before you can take care of someone else, and thats if you even want to
I am shocked and disappointed that paying child support was not even a discussion for his budget. He should absolutely be supporting the mother of his child!
@@dillyfrank5562supporting the kids needs comes in the form of reimbursing the mother for your half that she already paid upfront as the responsible adult actively taking care of the child.
I think he’s lying and doesn’t have a kid. He was searching for something to tell Caleb that would make him seem like a good guy or redeem himself. Check the long pause before remembering “Down syndrome”.
Here’s the insane thing. I live in one of the most expensive cities in the world. My partner and I eat out around 2 times a week and do groceries the rest of the time. And it’s still less than 1200$ per month!! What is this dude ordering??
I seriously can't fathom how normalized door dashing every meal is for some people. I'm convinced if doordash didn't exist these people would starve to death, they just simply cannot understand any other way to obtain food.
Here’s why:: in 2012 I took the train through Russia. Russians don’t afford restaurants and they can’t. And it’s normal there. In america for 5 decades Americans have been “affording” to eat out. Americans are NOW needing to stop that. But their brains are so absolutely stuck in the past
I would like to give a shout-out to my thermos. I take things like soup and beans with me to university. The food stays hot until I eat it somewhere on campus, and saves me from buying food from the cafeteria. This post was inspired by Caleb’s passionate rant about sandwiches.
I’ve been watching these for a while but I was shocked to see someone I knew on here. I used to work with him at an ABA center doing a behavior tech job and I had such a high opinion of him. He had a great energy with the kids and seemed to be working hard for his son. So sad to see that he moved away from his son and isn’t doing anything to support him. I really hope the best for him and he turns it around and gets his priorities in order.
I really think some people just love talking about their problems and getting sympathy. You can see it in a lot of guests faces, they light up when talking about their issues, and it often sounds well-rehearsed. Your problems aren’t cool, what’s cool is comfort and financial safety. So glad Caleb’s team is working to change this mindset 👏🏽
Some people are addicted to the struggle. They’ve been doing it so long, they think it’s some kind of badge of honor. “Look at how much I’m going through. It’s so stressful living this way, but I get through it every day because I’m a warrior💪”
Asking if people have children should really be one of the first questions Caleb asks - like how does this guy go almost an hour without mentioning he has a child
It was shocking how the son was such an afterthought. But when a person is using expensive delivery food and clothes as a mental crutch/cope it shows how selfish they are. So I guess it shouldn’t be surprising they are selfish in the support of their offspring, too.
I keep seeing this pattern of Caleb saying something like "You need to spend less on food" and the guest says "Oh, so you don't want me to eat!??". In their mind, the options are spend $1,000/month on food or not eat at all.
It’s like they don’t think it’s possible to buy groceries in bulk and cook meals at home. So many people are lazy and like to act like their wants are needs.
Doordash and food delivery is such an incredibly luxurious way to spend money. I'm in my 30s, and I still struggle to understand how "normalized" delivery has become. This shit was NOT AROUND 15 years ago. And now people act like it's a goddamn need. I mean sure, we always had pizza delivery, but even in my early 20s, no one was ordering pizza delivery every day. Sure, they'd go out to eat every day, but delivery itself is an incredibly privileged service to be having.
I hate to talk shit about my own, and newer generations but folks are ignoring the financial cost and forgetting how to grocery shop and to cook - a basic life skill - for the convenience of getting food delivered. Are people getting that lazy or stupid not to see the bigger picture here?
@@rtre957 I think that speaks more to our terrible food system and most people's lack of access to healthy, affordable foods all of which is intentional. Our health care system profits off of the sick. There's a reason why big pharma and health insurance companies like Blue Cross spend as much as they do lobbying to ensure our health and agricultural systems stay exactly as they are now.
I will never understand it and I used to do food delivery. Almost everyone has the ability to drive to get their food. Most people only order from places less than 20min drive from them anyway, and the cost of their order would basically double if they paid for delivery after all the fees+tips. It really boggles my mind. Also the food usually gets cold before it gets to you anyway 😅
I’m 21 and can’t believe it. I only ever instacart if I’m in need of something I can’t go get because I’m wheelchair bound. Food delivery is out of the question unless I get a really good deal which is probably once every six months. How much people prioritize ordering food over bills and their KIDS astonishes me
As Caleb has gotten bigger he's started getting more and more guests on here that seem to be more about chasing the clout and riding the algorithm of the channel than about getting the help that Caleb's offering. It's kinda frustrating to see so many guests come on like him who are making jokes, weak justifications and seem to be both baffled by and enjoying their own ignorance.
100% Really want to start seeing like Follow up Friday's now. Caleb has done enough of these now to try to get past guests on and update their situation- I know it may be difficult but I would rather see either a positive update or a negative one with a new plan than some of the more recent guests who have no intention to change whatsoever. Hard to get invested in a lost cause who only comes on for Drama. Genuinely feel that if this is the path the Channel is on it won't lead to long term success. I hope I am wrong as I have found this show so useful and engaging.
This stuff isn't confusing. Takes a few google searches to become an "expert" on Caleb's level. People come to this channel to see morons like this guy, not to see financially illiterate people turn their life around.
Is NOT considering moving back to where he could be near his son because he wants to create content and potentially be homeless? These dead beat dads have it so easy, I can't even stand it. Where is the DRIVE and MOTIVATION to be near your CHILD??? I truly don't get it
I bet if you checked his DoorDash/Uber apps he’d have an assload of service fees as well. Don’t use these apps and if you can in fact afford to use them at least subscribe to their bullshit plans to reduce service fees.
@@SimonCasfr. last winter I started DDing a ton and at one point I just sat back and thought ‘I’m paying double the price for food that’s lukewarm at best’ and I may have gotten it twice since. Only time I’ll ever use it now is if it’s lake on a weekend and I can get pizza, only thing that travels well
Deevon: "I like clothes, I like to look good" Caleb: "Well I hope it keeps you warm under the bridge you'll be living under" Damn, I'm calling 911, I just saw someone get murdered
so, because insurance was “too expensive” now he can’t afford to get his car fixed (he could’ve gotten a settlement check if the other guy was at fault too). And now he’s paying INSANE rates for insurance! I’m only 7 min in and this is CRAZY
I did the math once with a 12 taco supreme pack from taco bell. Doordash: $25-35 Drive Thru: $12-13 It's wild that people don't realize how expensive doordashing your stuff is. Even if you still choose to get fast food, that's gonna cut that cost down by a lot getting it yourself.
This young man needs to be on proper court ordered & supervised child support payment plan. The mother needs to make him assist on taking care of the child they both made.
It’s crazy how often I see people with cheap rent overspend instead of taking advantage of the opportunity to put away more money. Then when that situation ends, they’re panicking.
It’s really sad that his proposed budget doesn’t include “I pay what I can” fund for the son. I hope he gets taken to court and the child is made a priority. It was super cringy when he said that him visiting and being in his sons life was the support. What a man-child.
FYI - eating cheap and healthy go hand in hand. I eat tons of plain Greek yogurt, muesli, oatmeal, spinach, fruit, and soups. Those are ALL cheap and last me at least one week if not longer.
Soup is easy, filling, insanely versatile, dirt cheap, usually pretty healthy, and can last a whole week. And if you're lazy, there are about a thousand different soups you can make in a $30 slow cooker with about five minutes' worth of effort. Soup is basically the ultimate food.
Not paying child support ? This guy doesn’t deserve Caleb. This guy doesn’t deserve much of anything until he steps up and takes care of his child. What’s up with all these POS ‘parents’ coming in the show with zero intention of taking care of their responsibilities.
@@pamelalieghthis guy's a POS. Let's not kid ourselves here That needs to be a criteria on the screening now Are you down on your luck and want to get better OR Do you want to waste time to justify your poor decisions
He is not on child support because our tax dollars are taking care of his child. State medical social security benefits the child and whatever else the mother is eligible for.
i hate people using school not teaching financial literacy as an excuse. it's common sense that someone making minimum wage cant afford a BMW or $1,000 a month on doordash.
Right? People cry because they don't want to learn fucking high school math, and then say that they'll never have to find X or whatever in real life, but personal finances is basic algebra + being responsible.
"clothes are part of my personality so i should spend more on them" "the gov has to pay for my child because being a father isnt part of my personality" many such cases. way to be a stereotype. and a child.
@@serryjeinfeld4864 black men abandon their kids at very high rates & black people use gov assistance at high rates as well. Its a statistical fact at this point, unfortunately. Wanting flashy clothes is also a stereotype, though not as bad as the not raising their kids. Probably alot of overlap between the 2 things as wasting money on flashy clothes leaves less for raising kids.
I left my house at 16 and was never taught financial literacy, but I understand the importance of being responsible. Some people are just full of excuses
"They dont teach this in schools" is absolutely no longer an excuse in the age of the internet. This dude's problem is not information, its motivation.
Also the dude said "I don't have a math background" like stop with that BS. Can you add, subtract, multiply, and divide numbers? Congrats, you know all the math you need to be able to budget.
The funny this is schools did teach the basics , its called algebra...... the interest rate formula is even part of the course.... but for some reason people just thought they were never going to do math again????
I’m getting so sick of the clown guests who couldn’t care less about their personal finances coming on here acting like they’re trying to launch their comedy career… I’d really like to see some people who genuinely want help and are here to learn
“That’s why I’m here! You’re here to save me!” No my man, he’s here to show YOU how to save YOURSELF. That’s the real problem, thinking that no matter how bad he messes up somebody will come along and fix it without him growing at all or correcting any of the actions that led him here.
Any time someone uses the words “pretty much” or “basically” when describing their profession, I immediately know they do not have the licensure for said profession. He is definitely a para or a certified behavior tech. He is NOT a behavioral therapist or a teacher
I can’t speak for this dude, but when I was a TMS tech, I either explain the entire pre-surgical work up process and my role in it, or I say “Basically, I shock your brain for a living.” I usually went with the latter unless the person was in an adjacent field (EEG, IOM, etc) or seemed interested.
To clarify, I am referring to describing their title or the actual profession. For example, a healthcare worker stating they are “basically a nurse” while not having that licensure. We’re not talking about describing your job duties. He said he was “basically a behavioral therapist”. This is an unbelievable and dangerous conflation of what his qualifications are.
I absolutely LOATHE when grown guest downplay serious situations like that You’re not on drake and Josh bro, you’re about to go homeless because you’re 30 and can’t stop eating tacobell

The lack of incorporating his child into his goals is disappointing. Instead, money is going towards door dash.
It’s way more common than you would think. Some people just get overwhelmed especially kids with special needs and instead of learning they run away.

Dude moved away from his kid, doesn’t pay child support, and then uses his kid’s disability as a pity me moment. Ridiculous. Grow up. Instead of being obsessed with Nacho Fries, be obsessed with giving two fs about your kid.
Kids with disabilities are written off an impossible to help. Those babies are at the mercy of the love of their parents. I would know. I have one. Not what I imagined my life would be, and it is hard, but they put out what you put in to them, and it's EXTREMELY rewarding to see those little wins. But people often write tge disabled off immediatelt as the news is devastating, to say the least.😢
Even just giving HALF a fuck about his child would be like pulling teeth for this idiot.
He's a deadbeat. He could easily face punishment under the DDPA if the mom does the right thing and ask for child support in a court. Then he faces 2 years federal prison time once he doesn't pay, 80% served min.
@@miffedcuttlefish6139it’s made even worse by the fact he works with kids with disabilities. (Presumably) he doesn’t believe they’re unhelpable, and he actually has the skills and knowledge to at least attempt to help his kid (where many parents, somewhat understandably, have no idea what their children might need if they have disabilities and why special things they might need to do) and he still doesn’t do anything.
I have a feeling he used him having a kid with disabilities to get his current job too ....even though he basically has nothing to do with him

Dude buy a sack of potatoes, some canola oil, taco seasoning, and a can of El Rios jalapeño cheese sauce. $10 and you’ll be set for the month. Not paying for your disabled son over some cheese fries is WILD.
Pork butt is like 2 dollars a pound where I'm at. I make fat ass pork burritos for basically pennies.
Yo, Imma have to try this. How are you cooking the potatoes?
@@aang6421 for a healthier and easier option you can roast them on a baking sheet at 425 until nice and crispy, for a more true to fast food option you can deep fry them in the oil. If you fry them, let them rest a bit, then fry them again, then toss in the seasonings directly after frying they will be extra crispy and delicious. But the roasting is much easier and healthier. If I roast them I season them before cooking, if frying I season directly after.
Add some onions to that pile, and some milk, and potato soup is also an option. And lots of other things. Potatoes and onions can be used together in lots of different ways.
It's like these people don't understand that spending 150 dollars one time every 2 weeks or even weekly on groceries is FAR cheaper than spending 15 or 20 bucks twice a day on fast food.

He lost me at the groceries.
If you are broke and facing homeless, you don't worry about enjoying your food, you worry about surviving.
When I was broke and surviving, I took the bus to the grocery store. Plain oatmeal for breakfast(no milk), PB&J's for lunch with a piece of fruit as a splurge. 2x a week I made a cheap soup or pasta dish with no meat that I could eat leftovers on for a few days.
So, I don't have a lot of sympathy for someone that doordashes food and claims to be broke.
Beans and rice with cheap protein (like turkey), a bag of frozen vegetables + a random seasoning. Make a big pot of that and portion into containers for the week. It’s like $12-15 for a dozen adult sized portions. Does it taste great? Ehhhh. Is it nutritious? Yes.
A pack of chicken and uncle Ben's instant rice is like 10 bucks at my loal publix. throw in some veggies you have a balances meal. This guy is just lazy
If it's between shelter and food, shelter is what you pick every single time. It's far easier to get community assistance with food than it is housing.
@@VicvicWyou don't even need community assistance. You can get a cart full of food at grocery outlets for $50 and they're near almost every "poor" area.
It's a lot harder to find a cheap place to live near where you work than to find cheap food 😂
There are many places to get food for free in Austin. People also often donate on Facebook free stuff groups. Ordering delivery is the most expensive thing you could do from many options available.

I was very confused about that too like uhm you need to go shopping at least 2-4 times a month lol
This guy started out being dishonest about his job, he’s not a teacher, he’s a para-pro if he’s making $18.50 an hour. He’s really good at deceiving himself and did throughout this entire convo.

@@helenr4300 , and FYI, this is VERY common when it comes to complaints about teacher pay in the US.

Exactly! Even if it is true the adults in your childhood didn't properly teach you financial discipline...you can't go your whole adult life blaming it on them. At some point you have to teach yourself and change your life
@willmahan4161 I bet his parents didin't teach him how to set up streaming on Twitch... yet he did figure that out by himself.
I wonder how he did that? Maybe an angel gave him that knowledge overnight or...he googled how?
The same ppl who say that there should be a financial literacy course in school are the same ppl who will skip said class and blame the edu system for their failures.
Exactly, our education system isn't perfect but I'm sick of people blaming school for being stupid even though they probably didn't even pay attention in school. If you care so much about what school or your parents didn't teach you, why don't you teach yourself with all the free time you have with limitless amount of information you can get with the internet? If people don't want to put in the effort to be wiser and responsible it's their own fault.
Just a way to blame others
The Boy Scouts require financial class
i've found, that paying attention in school and learning how to learn things, allows you to then go and do some self-education on other, more important matters.
There's still MANY people that would genuinely benefit from it.
So many guests with children they won't take care of is sickening. 😞

Why is the child support payment not included in the budget at all? His child’s mother needs to immediately have the courts put him on child support and have them vacuum the payment right off the top of his paycheck every month.
I wonder if she isn't pursuing it because she worries that if she gets child support, that opens up the possibility that he could get visitation.
I've known women who have done that to protect their kids from dads who are wildly inconsistent, drop them off with new girlfriends, if they show up at all

I came from a consumer household. My mom always having Amazon deliveries and she was purchasing even more when she got her motorcycle. She did instill the same values onto me and things were “I’ll just put it on my CC and pay it whenever” for a while. And when I got in over my head by maxing out my credit card at 5k at 21yo she just said “welcome to the real world.” I realized she had no money, at 53yo and had a mortgage, rusting out car, a 25k motorcycle, and credit cards up the yaza. She then didn’t have money for a roof replacement so I lent her 1500 and I was broke. Thats when I learned that I can’t get stuck like that. My mom was relying off my sister and I to house her when she gets old. She has no retirement, only 45k that lost 15k during covid and hasn’t recovered. As far as she and my sister know, I’m a broke 26yo. I’m too paranoid to have them know how much I make.
Don't ever tell her. Her bad decisions are not your responsibility to amend. Gotta take care of yourself before you can take care of someone else, and thats if you even want to

When im driving around, thinking about Caleb shouting Taquitos helps me to resist stopping for fat food.
Same 😂 with the high pitch voice
@@SkylineENTofficial exactly!
I’ve been watching these for a while but I was shocked to see someone I knew on here. I used to work with him at an ABA center doing a behavior tech job and I had such a high opinion of him. He had a great energy with the kids and seemed to be working hard for his son. So sad to see that he moved away from his son and isn’t doing anything to support him. I really hope the best for him and he turns it around and gets his priorities in order.
to be fair this guy is under a microscope
Yeah, people can present very differently at work compared to their personal life. I do hope he shows up for his kid though.
This is my worst fear lol someone recognizing me if I went on here.
I know him too, I couldn't believe it 😭 he's an alright dude, it's sad to see him throwing away his life like this
@@maddiehags7104use these episodes as advice and you won’t have to be on here
Pro tip: if you claim external things like clothes and cars as part of your personality, you do not have a personality
😂 perfect 👌
Idk I don’t think cars come into play with that at all I’ve always been into cars I wouldn’t say I have no personality 😂
@@08superbee You're disagreeing because its about you. Sorry, your car is not who you are as a person.
@@toddtherodgod1867I’d say the car a person has isn’t part of their personality, but being into cars is.
@@08superbee The world has some bad news for you, I'm so sorry...
“I’m depressed so I spend all of my money.” Everyone is depressed and has anxiety. It’s not an excuse anymore
literally
Unsurprisingly my overall anxiety and depression diminished once I got my finances in order
My finances are in order but I still have a ton of M illness lol😂
But that being said I pay off tuition every 6 months and if I had a full 100k of student loans I don’t know if I could cope
sounds like financial stress still
@@DevHazy
"Have you heard of... Nacho fries?" The smile that he does after saying that made me blood boil
He should have said "Have you heard of... My son?", that would have made him make look better
So basically he's a child taking care of children... while neglecting his own.
I really think some people just love talking about their problems and getting sympathy. You can see it in a lot of guests faces, they light up when talking about their issues, and it often sounds well-rehearsed.
Your problems aren’t cool, what’s cool is comfort and financial safety. So glad Caleb’s team is working to change this mindset 👏🏽
I am so glad I am not the only one who thinks this.
This person is a behavioural therapist...he needs one to correct his own
They’re narcissists who only know how to give themselves short-term pleasures.
Some people are addicted to the struggle. They’ve been doing it so long, they think it’s some kind of badge of honor.
“Look at how much I’m going through. It’s so stressful living this way, but I get through it every day because I’m a warrior💪”
Asking if people have children should really be one of the first questions Caleb asks - like how does this guy go almost an hour without mentioning he has a child
Omg what?!?! I’m not there yet but that’s insane
Because mentally he doesn't
Im not to that point yet but im mindblown this dudes a "dad"
@@TheNTMG Kudos to you for putting dad in quotation marks. So true.
It was shocking how the son was such an afterthought. But when a person is using expensive delivery food and clothes as a mental crutch/cope it shows how selfish they are. So I guess it shouldn’t be surprising they are selfish in the support of their offspring, too.
This guy is an expert at dodging accountability
I keep seeing this pattern of Caleb saying something like "You need to spend less on food" and the guest says "Oh, so you don't want me to eat!??". In their mind, the options are spend $1,000/month on food or not eat at all.
With that kind of mentality, I have to wonder if this guy suffers from BPD.
but have you heard of nacho fries?
So lazy
This is my wife’s argument lol.
It’s like they don’t think it’s possible to buy groceries in bulk and cook meals at home. So many people are lazy and like to act like their wants are needs.
Doordash and food delivery is such an incredibly luxurious way to spend money.
I'm in my 30s, and I still struggle to understand how "normalized" delivery has become. This shit was NOT AROUND 15 years ago. And now people act like it's a goddamn need. I mean sure, we always had pizza delivery, but even in my early 20s, no one was ordering pizza delivery every day. Sure, they'd go out to eat every day, but delivery itself is an incredibly privileged service to be having.
I hate to talk shit about my own, and newer generations but folks are ignoring the financial cost and forgetting how to grocery shop and to cook - a basic life skill - for the convenience of getting food delivered.
Are people getting that lazy or stupid not to see the bigger picture here?
@@oscher88 Let's not forget they are also getting fat and costing a lot of taxpayer money for their declining health
@@rtre957 I think that speaks more to our terrible food system and most people's lack of access to healthy, affordable foods all of which is intentional. Our health care system profits off of the sick. There's a reason why big pharma and health insurance companies like Blue Cross spend as much as they do lobbying to ensure our health and agricultural systems stay exactly as they are now.
I will never understand it and I used to do food delivery. Almost everyone has the ability to drive to get their food. Most people only order from places less than 20min drive from them anyway, and the cost of their order would basically double if they paid for delivery after all the fees+tips. It really boggles my mind. Also the food usually gets cold before it gets to you anyway 😅
I’m 21 and can’t believe it. I only ever instacart if I’m in need of something I can’t go get because I’m wheelchair bound. Food delivery is out of the question unless I get a really good deal which is probably once every six months. How much people prioritize ordering food over bills and their KIDS astonishes me
As Caleb has gotten bigger he's started getting more and more guests on here that seem to be more about chasing the clout and riding the algorithm of the channel than about getting the help that Caleb's offering. It's kinda frustrating to see so many guests come on like him who are making jokes, weak justifications and seem to be both baffled by and enjoying their own ignorance.
💯
The producers need to see this.
No more streamers or OF models.
100% Really want to start seeing like Follow up Friday's now. Caleb has done enough of these now to try to get past guests on and update their situation- I know it may be difficult but I would rather see either a positive update or a negative one with a new plan than some of the more recent guests who have no intention to change whatsoever. Hard to get invested in a lost cause who only comes on for Drama. Genuinely feel that if this is the path the Channel is on it won't lead to long term success. I hope I am wrong as I have found this show so useful and engaging.
@@BenjaminDover95The producers know full and well what they're doing. These fools get the most views
This stuff isn't confusing. Takes a few google searches to become an "expert" on Caleb's level. People come to this channel to see morons like this guy, not to see financially illiterate people turn their life around.
Is NOT considering moving back to where he could be near his son because he wants to create content and potentially be homeless? These dead beat dads have it so easy, I can't even stand it. Where is the DRIVE and MOTIVATION to be near your CHILD??? I truly don't get it
My jaw dropped when I heard that, like... Wtf. And talking about door dash for 30 minutes.
Eats because he’s depressed yet the reason he’s depressed is because he’s eating out for every meal and can’t afford to pay bills.
I bet if you checked his DoorDash/Uber apps he’d have an assload of service fees as well. Don’t use these apps and if you can in fact afford to use them at least subscribe to their bullshit plans to reduce service fees.
Shits viscous. I can kinda relate but damn you got to make sacrifices
@@SimonCasfr. last winter I started DDing a ton and at one point I just sat back and thought ‘I’m paying double the price for food that’s lukewarm at best’ and I may have gotten it twice since. Only time I’ll ever use it now is if it’s lake on a weekend and I can get pizza, only thing that travels well
Why is being stylish more important than providing for his kid with down syndrom. :(
Deevon: "I like clothes, I like to look good"
Caleb: "Well I hope it keeps you warm under the bridge you'll be living under"
Damn, I'm calling 911, I just saw someone get murdered
That made me lol
so, because insurance was “too expensive” now he can’t afford to get his car fixed (he could’ve gotten a settlement check if the other guy was at fault too).
And now he’s paying INSANE rates for insurance!
I’m only 7 min in and this is CRAZY
Some thoughts of these people are insane - Oh I save on insurance now only to get into a much, much bigger bill without, yeha, makes sense
"I've had bad experience with police"
Proceeds to drive around without insurance, get into an accident and try to sue the guy with insurance 😂
Classic victim mentality
The guy also didn't have insurance* They're both some great people
What does one have to do with the other? Two things can be true at once.
@isb_3835 for sure he could easily have had very bad experiences with police before.
Dude has a victimhood card but no insurance.
I did the math once with a 12 taco supreme pack from taco bell.
Doordash: $25-35
Drive Thru: $12-13
It's wild that people don't realize how expensive doordashing your stuff is. Even if you still choose to get fast food, that's gonna cut that cost down by a lot getting it yourself.
For real. If you’re broke and hungry do DoorDash grab t your own food while making money.
pay a premium for cold fast food. No thanks
Fr someone in the comments knows
Overall cooking is better
Where are you getting a 12 pack for $12? They are 3 for $9 at my local taco bell.
They're not sober. They've got munchies and can't drive.
This young man needs to be on proper court ordered & supervised child support payment plan. The mother needs to make him assist on taking care of the child they both made.
It’s crazy how often I see people with cheap rent overspend instead of taking advantage of the opportunity to put away more money. Then when that situation ends, they’re panicking.
It’s really sad that his proposed budget doesn’t include “I pay what I can” fund for the son. I hope he gets taken to court and the child is made a priority. It was super cringy when he said that him visiting and being in his sons life was the support. What a man-child.
"You're defending dumb choices which makes you dumb." some people just can't handle the truth.
FYI - eating cheap and healthy go hand in hand. I eat tons of plain Greek yogurt, muesli, oatmeal, spinach, fruit, and soups. Those are ALL cheap and last me at least one week if not longer.
Soup is easy, filling, insanely versatile, dirt cheap, usually pretty healthy, and can last a whole week. And if you're lazy, there are about a thousand different soups you can make in a $30 slow cooker with about five minutes' worth of effort. Soup is basically the ultimate food.
It's insane how people still don't understand its so much cheaper to do some basic planning (buy bulk) and eat healthy
You can freeze the soup and it can last ya longer owo
Chickpeas and lentils too!!
@@gerryhowe1086I buy bulk but it’s not cheaper and goes to waste because I eat like a mouse
To see him say hi to his dad. But doesn't pay child support to his child ridiculous.
How is there a second person abandoning their special needs child. How is he not paying child support?
Also, congrats on 1M
When they say they are a special needs teacher no less...wild
Another “hit it and quit it” with no responsibility or conscience.
Not paying child support ? This guy doesn’t deserve Caleb.
This guy doesn’t deserve much of anything until he steps up and takes care of his child.
What’s up with all these POS ‘parents’ coming in the show with zero intention of taking care of their responsibilities.
@@pamelalieghthis guy's a POS. Let's not kid ourselves here
That needs to be a criteria on the screening now
Are you down on your luck and want to get better
OR
Do you want to waste time to justify your poor decisions
He is not on child support because our tax dollars are taking care of his child. State medical social security benefits the child and whatever else the mother is eligible for.
i hate people using school not teaching financial literacy as an excuse. it's common sense that someone making minimum wage cant afford a BMW or $1,000 a month on doordash.
It’s called “math” - or “maths” if you’re English.
Right? People cry because they don't want to learn fucking high school math, and then say that they'll never have to find X or whatever in real life, but personal finances is basic algebra + being responsible.
"clothes are part of my personality so i should spend more on them"
"the gov has to pay for my child because being a father isnt part of my personality"
many such cases. way to be a stereotype. and a child.
Amen. He’s disgusting.
Stereotype of what?
@@serryjeinfeld4864stereotype of a lazy father
@@serryjeinfeld4864and they’re probably implying something else I’m not going to mention but think you can clearly see 😅
@@serryjeinfeld4864 black men abandon their kids at very high rates & black people use gov assistance at high rates as well. Its a statistical fact at this point, unfortunately. Wanting flashy clothes is also a stereotype, though not as bad as the not raising their kids. Probably alot of overlap between the 2 things as wasting money on flashy clothes leaves less for raising kids.
It always takes me so long to actually think about ordering door dash . I keep telling myself it’s not worth it
Mentioned nacho fries like 9 times brought up his child with a disability once
I left my house at 16 and was never taught financial literacy, but I understand the importance of being responsible. Some people are just full of excuses
"They dont teach this in schools" is absolutely no longer an excuse in the age of the internet. This dude's problem is not information, its motivation.
“School” isn’t responsible for teaching people how to be an adult. Laughable excuse.
Also the dude said "I don't have a math background" like stop with that BS. Can you add, subtract, multiply, and divide numbers? Congrats, you know all the math you need to be able to budget.
THIS. Even if you can't find the answer itself by googling something, you can at least find who/where to ask.
The funny this is schools did teach the basics , its called algebra...... the interest rate formula is even part of the course.... but for some reason people just thought they were never going to do math again????
Try and remember stuff that you were taught and studied in HS. You probably can't, don't understand why finance would be any different
I’m getting so sick of the clown guests who couldn’t care less about their personal finances coming on here acting like they’re trying to launch their comedy career… I’d really like to see some people who genuinely want help and are here to learn
“That’s why I’m here! You’re here to save me!” No my man, he’s here to show YOU how to save YOURSELF.
That’s the real problem, thinking that no matter how bad he messes up somebody will come along and fix it without him growing at all or correcting any of the actions that led him here.
Yes!!! I wish Caleb responded exactly with that.
Yeah his “your here to save me” excitement was so cringe
Any time someone uses the words “pretty much” or “basically” when describing their profession, I immediately know they do not have the licensure for said profession. He is definitely a para or a certified behavior tech. He is NOT a behavioral therapist or a teacher
I can’t speak for this dude, but when I was a TMS tech, I either explain the entire pre-surgical work up process and my role in it, or I say “Basically, I shock your brain for a living.” I usually went with the latter unless the person was in an adjacent field (EEG, IOM, etc) or seemed interested.
Especially making $18 @ 29 years old. Man is pathetic
I don't think that's fair to others
To clarify, I am referring to describing their title or the actual profession. For example, a healthcare worker stating they are “basically a nurse” while not having that licensure. We’re not talking about describing your job duties. He said he was “basically a behavioral therapist”. This is an unbelievable and dangerous conflation of what his qualifications are.
@@ToastbackWhalealso an example, you referred to yourself accurately as a TMS tech, not “basically a neurologist”. Cool job by the way!
“Have you heard of Nacho Fries?” Is when I basically checked out😂😂this dude CLEARLY doesn’t care at all
They're not even that great. I don't get it.
literally! i like the fries too but that irritated me sm, he thought he ate
This! Why can't he just make them at home? Plus .. purchasing a car he can't afford. $18.50 an hour and he chooses a BMW?!
I absolutely LOATHE when grown guest downplay serious situations like that
You’re not on drake and Josh bro, you’re about to go homeless because you’re 30 and can’t stop eating tacobell
All of yall commenting n the Original comment are Stupid! Yall clearly haven’t tried those Nacho Fries 🤤
