I’m at my parents house for various reasons, and I was actually thinking of moving out this year to be closer to my friends.
And then I had a seizure. And my parents and my sister were instrumental in calling 911 and making sure I didn’t end falling to the ground painfully. They stuck with me in the hospital, and have been incredibly supportive. State law doesn’t even let me drive for 6 months, so they’ve helped immensely with all that. I don’t think I would’ve even known I had a seizure if not for them, and I couldn’t have taken the right corrective measures for my health.
So, from the very bottom of my heart – fuck you Dave Ramsey. Go fuck yourself and shove a rusty cactus up your ass. I’d call him a cunt (which I do not do lightly), but he lacks the warmth and the depth to be one.
I’m glad your family had your back, a lot of people can’t do so, and we’re facing generational collapses.
Oh I’m very fortunate. My parents are overbearing but they let me stay without rent and my mom still cooks for us. I’m incredibly lucky, and I wish everyone could fall back on their family like this.
There’s a big problem facing the collective generation, and I sure as hell will help however I can.
Glad they were able to help you out.
Thank you!
Be safe man, hoping for you that it was just a one off seizure and you don’t have a recurrence. You don’t want to deal with full blown epilepsy. My sister has adult onset epilepsy that they can’t really get under control. She can’t drive anymore, has to wear a helmet any time she’s on her feet, and with the ever-changing med cocktail she gets prescribed, it really affects her mental state and mood.
It seems like it was just a one off. There doesn’t seem to be anything clearly wrong neurologically, and my blood sugar was incredibly low at the time. I’m also apparently predisposed to getting seizures at low blood sugar from a condition I have, I was on a medicine at the time which lowered my seizure threshold, and I think another medicine was artificially lowering my blood sugar too. So it was just the perfect storm.
I hope things turn around for your sister :/. That’s absolutely awful. I’m incredibly fortunate, but for a while it was possible that could’ve been me. I hope there’s a miracle cure out there to help.
Wait until this man has a stroke and his children refuse to move in and help him.
We can only hope.
10-hour days working my ass off in a technical “skilled” job to come home to a rented 1B1BR and entitled freaks like this still want to ignore their privileged life and throw shade. Fuck Dave Ramsey and fuck the greedy companies making record profits while also not paying their workers enough.
Set him up with a whiteboard and feed him actual, real figures and watch him fail to explain how it would be possible to do what he’s claiming.
No financial gifts or inheritances from parents to use as a deposit, no magical income that comes from starting a business, no magical windfalls from putting house deposit savings into the stock market, just regular old income and student debt.
If he can’t do this, he should be ignored by the financial media.
Here’s a little graph I whipped up. Dave Ramsay was born in Nashville, in 1960. So he would have been a little too young to buy in 1975, but you get the general idea.
He’s just going to say invest in stocks to amplify your income.
Add to that, house prices have doubled since 2015. That’s a decade old at this point.

I like to imagine this means “fixed that for thee.”
Dave Ramsey can buy a house because he doesn’t work.
It’s hard to get a job, man.
This guy was born into a wealthy family and acts like he earned it all
Big Trump energy.
They always do. Its frustrating and disgusting.
Respectfully, Dave Ramsey can suck my whole ass.
No respect. I wouldn’t let him. That’s reserved for peeps I like.
But he can suck… Wait…
He can go have coitus with himself. And even that’s too good for him.

Yeah bruh, a 1500sf house in my hood costs $1.4M. You can get a tear down for like maybe $900K.
Has finance guru Dave Ramsey looked at the cost of housing compared to what working people earn? It’s very different now than it was when the boomers were able to buy houses on the income of a single entry-level wage earner per household.
One wonders whether ‘finance gurus’ aren’t just out-of-touch boomers any more
Interest rates just shot way the fuck up too. And while they were really good around 2021 a lot of folks were still struggling from being out of work
I’ve been sick of him from the first moment I met an adherent. I mentioned how I like to avoid debt and pay it down early and the person said “Oh, so you listen to Dave Ramsey?” I confessed to having no idea who they were talking about, and they swore that I was being obtuse because I couldn’t have come up with “interest sucks” on my own.
Those who are undereducated often can’t imagine that people can be truly brilliant.
Interest bad is far below brilliant
I guess we could be grading on a curve of people that view Ramsey as brilliant…
No just interest, compound interest is bad

I’m a Boomer myself (born in 1964) and this maybe the first legitimate occasion I’ve had to say “Okay, Boomer.”
Out of touch.
Feels good, doesn’t it? 😂
Good. I hope you have to decide between caviar and avocado toast because you don’t have the money for both because of this you silver spoon in the ear goon.
I hereby encourage anyone encountering him to slam him as well.
Literally though. If possible, off the top of a cage and through a table, but at least a decent scoop slam.
Then Randy Savage breaks out the steel chair, right?
In an ideal world :)
Buh gawd
