If your husband is lying and stealing from you (and your small children), your home is already "broken." Get the hell outta dodge before you lose everything.

Sarah needs to file charges for fraud and theft.

Sarah, …run and don’t look back before he leaves you destitute.

Bless mom Galy, I know she wants to help but I remember when I was 19 years old and I was working a job. I came to my dad and asked for some money and he said to me don’t you have a bank account? I was like yes, I do so from that moment, I realized that I had to fin for myself. He did his job now I have to be an adult and budget my money, so I do agree whether you have ADHD or depression you still need to budget your 💴

She needs to leave her spouse. He will do it again. I left my husband of 15 years. We had 4 children. he forged my signature and stole all the money from a joint 401 account. It took 5 years to divorce him. Gather your evidence against him and get yourself a good divorce lawyer. Because of his fraud during the marriage, the judge who granted our divorce gave me the family home and alimony for 5 years.

Sarah, I’m sorry but your husband might be a psychopath. I’m worried.

Thank you Jade Warshaw for demonstrating the EveryDollar budget! First time I’ve seen it on the Ramsey show and highly recommend y’all continue to do this segment!

[miryamishot]

She is not thinking about her children, not at all, she is solely thinking about her feelings and not wanting to be divorced, honey, he's already divorced you when he crossed the line and took your money, leave him now before he does it again and before he ruins your children's lives. Wake up.

Sarah from Atlanta, those numbers were astounding, if someone scammed me for multiple six figures, I for sure would not be going forward after 3 years of marriage. Really sorry, I myself have been married to a crazy person for 30 years, for the kids, and fully regret not getting out a long time ago.

[hilarys]

Loving the advice and perspective from this host duo! Jade and Rachel are so smart! More shows like this! Also Jade’s budget walk through segment is gold

[sistahinscrubs]

Sarah better leave before he hurt her over money. He even got into her personal money. Her home been broken. I wish Dave was on air today to get at her. Therapy can’t fix that. That man is desperate financially. Smh. Poor lady 😢

[guitarcountry]

My nephew took Foundations in high school. He says it was the most valuable class for high school and college! Very true!

[alexisballard]

I can read Jade’s mind when she asks these callers a direct simple question and they go around the block and out of town with justification before answering it 😆 it’s enough with the reasons just tell us the numbers already!!!

[JasmineBreanna]

wow.. I love this duo! Jade & Rachel <3 Go ladies!

We’re upside down on 4 vehicles (2of them motorcycles) because…Covid

[marcmercado]

32:11 your marriage is over. He’s been lying since the beginning. You have a soft spot for him because he’s your baby daddy. Totally understandable but mind your distance.

[zacharygsilvy]

Wanda's numbers aren't right and y'all didn't catch it, she said she makes 188 a year and monthly net is around 6. That's like 75k net annually, even in Cali there ain't no way.

[eightiesaddictone]

She needs to leave her husband immediately. He will bankrupt his wife and leave her and the children destitute. 💯

[wandamason]

I’m so sorry someone she trusted did her this way that’s completely unacceptable and I don’t know that I would stay!
