      With all respect...you are not getting her point..when you read or listen to a speach its important to understand the context...in this case her reason is that you are going to spend MORE which leads to going off budget...which leads to going broke...another thing she is saying is that it is not a fair game when it comes to points you are gaining "miles" from other broke people which means you are keeping other people broke. Sorry for my grammer I am mexican my native language is spanish and our culture uses cash we live day by day so it blends in very good with dave ramsey.

    The fact that she started the list with the use of credit cards in general, instead of listing it as the "irresponsable use of credit cards" made me not want to keep listening to her. Financially smart people will preach how to use a credit card responsibly. People that only talk about the "evil" credit cards are honestly not really financially mature to me. That and what was already mentionned in another comment, she's talking about what is keeping us broke and then proceeds to blast us with ads from a clothes and accessories store??? Woman...!!

    This channel is a life saver. I am a single 35 year old man who is still living at home with his parents because with the price of housing where it is at I refuse to pay that kind of money. I rather have that kind of money in a savings account until I am able to afford a house I can pay for with cash. In the meantime I consider a family and a home of my own a luxury that I cannot afford because I refuse to go into debt.

    The Gambling point you mentioned. If you’re lucky it can help. My wife has a limit of £20 a month for online gaming and she won a jackpot of £38K a few months back. It has changed our life as we used it to clear debt and paid off the credit cards and paid off my car finance so now own my vehicle outright and we are now debt free. I know for the majority of people gambling is not ideal and people can become addicted to it but on this rare occasion it really helped us.

      Right. As they say, it loses value right as you drive it off the lot. Buy used when possible. However personally being extremely conscious of germs, I will never buy used clothing or even furniture unless I know who owned it before. May be more expensive but I do not want to owned anything used by strange people and spend time cleaning it. Same goes to appliances. Would rather save and buy new but within average price, I don't like the expensive trends people always go for. I prefer more normal, standard things. I would rather have peace of mind as well even though Ill have to save for longer - good quality items for long term ownership.

    All the studies about credit card usage look at large populations/groups. Absolutely none of them have a separate group that budget their finances & control their spending and look specifically at cash vs credit card purchases within that group. Besides, if you already follow the Ramsey fundamentals of living below your means & budgeting your spending, you are already doing better than these studies’ conclusions.

    Love your videos, and my wife and I have accomplished baby steps 1-4 on SS and Pt jobs! We live within our means and the debt we had was from CA Mandated Affordable Care Act Penalties. Since we 've always lived frugally we were able to get through it. Our combined gross income is $3,000, 25% of that is $750, there is no place in CA and now we live in Texas, where rent is that low. Currently our rent is 42% of our take home pay, and we live in one of the most affordable complex's in our city. With rents on the low end being ($1500 average) $1200 to $1300 for a studio- 1 bedroom. Is the 25% ratio realisitic in this escalating rent/mortgage climate?

If you can find a way to buy something you'll be better off. If you can't, you're going to be living the "nomadland" life sooner or later.

    Cash is expected to be obsolete in the future so use it while you can. When you become homeless from the high cost of living and job insecurity then you will save on house payments and rent too. Jesus Saves ❤

    What a funny way to look at free miles being given because somebody else lost money. Isn't that the same thing with investing I the stock market? You're betting on some companies to lose. Yet you teach that is ok.
