Broke Millennials Are Flocking to Financial Guru Dave Ramsey. Is His Advice Any Good?
FYI: Dave Ramsey is the almighty slayer of debt. Not just in Brentwood, Tenn., where he broadcasts his radio program for three straight hours every Monday through Friday. Or in the slices of the heartland where his billboards dot highways and his live events pack churches the size of minor league baseball stadiums. But in the entire country, y’all.
A proud evangelical Christian, Ramsey rules the airwaves with a tone that rests in a measured Southern twang and then rockets, without warning, to a full-volume shout. Like when someone dials his call-in hotline, and he’s forced to tell them just how stupid they sound. Regards, Ted http://money.com/money/longform/dave-ramsey-money-debt-free/
I like Dave's show. Some of the caller's problems are head scratchers, but I think most people with overwhelming debt simply have too many children on his show. I also like his investing strategy in a general sense, despite his take on bonds.
