30k to risk your LIFE!!!! I'm here complaining about 80k from a job that wants me on call all the time. Bless this man and wife may he give them strength!

Hats off to John for working so hard for his family!

Good advice you gave him, Dave.

[chedbeckford]

That's a man who's trying to provide for his family. Respect!!

I’ve worked 2-3 jobs for a long time even though I don’t need to. Also in school. It’s hard to leave a second job knowing you will no longer be making that extra money to save/invest/ or whatever it is you do with it. But I can’t wait until the day I can feel ready to only work one job. With him being in debt, i would tough it out for those extra 8 months and then some just to have some extra savings. 8 months goes by fast when you’re working 80+ hours a week.

I have two jobs. About 70hours a week plus church and gym. Definitely gonna drop one job once I get 3-6 months worth of expensiveness saved.

Move to another state with better opportunity. This is crazy they should pay the wife a little more. Walmart pay is the same as a LPN.

[hankfuchs]

His wife is truly blessed to have a husband that has his motivation

[Paintball]

I work for the Sheriff's office and I am working a 2nd job at Walmart doing part time stocking for 11 bucks an hour. Do what you gotta do to get out of debt. Sacrifice now so in a few years you don't have to and when you're debt free you can work whatever job you want.

Man this guy hustlin'!!! I'm over here like, "I'll quit my job when my body just can't take it anymore!

[theaudiomelon]

His face at "Uncle Dave" 0:48 😂

[Zooooooooooom]

I am 24 years old. I recently graduated and I am working in my field full time plus two other jobs. I figured since I’m young might as well work and learn how to invest as much as possible to live comfortably in the future.

Cookeville, TN expects John to risk his life to save others for $34K??

[aidancash]

Wow that is super low for a LPN. She needs to look some more. A CNA usually makes that. She is getting takin advantage of.

[StephJseph]

He's impressive working 2 jobs while in school full-time

34k for a firefighter salary? Dude is getting robbed. My uncle is a Boston fire fighter and takes home 100k plus (including near endless overtime opportunities)

[JewelBlueIbanez]

$34, 000 as a firefighter?!?!! Here they make $60, 000-120, 000 a year.

[krazyk.]

$34K for a fireman is Literally risking their lives and getting paid scraps
