"Not caring what people think is a super power". Jade hit the nail on the head with that one.

[ghostbird]

This is why when people say that someone can't be broke when they make a lot of money, I bring up situations like these.

[ericmerten]

“Not caring what people think is a super power” BIG FACTS. Be your own hero!

[jackmortimer]

I heard someone say that you won't care what other people think about you when you realize how seldom they do.

[kevgret]

My wife and I drive 10 yr old cars. We have a very modest house that is paid off. We are also we dont care what people think of us.

[potatoesandicarrots]

Jade is such a FANTASTIC host. She had a great personal story and she’s really come into her own on the show next to Dave.

[PInkW]

I make $48k
I have no debt. My home is paid off.
I’m retired. I have a ton of money in the bank. I eat at home. Life is good.

I relate to this guy, my wife has told me "We will always be in debt". She's in a depression after losing her mother to cancer, 2 years later her sister to a car accident and a few months ago her father to a stroke. We are working through it. Very tough.
We are on track to be debt free in the next 6 months, about 50% of our debt is from helping support her parents through those tough times.
When it happens I'm going to see if we can both take the day off to celebrate, plan a fun day at the beach or something.

[JeannieSabol]

So right about so many things.

Jade - not caring about what other people think is a super power. She's so right.

[cjhoward]

Yep. Livin above their means.
My husband and I combined take home around $75, 000 a year. We have zero debt. No mortgage either. And we own our own home on 5 acres 😊

In Iowa?!!!! It would make sense in California but this is Iowa.

[PepeToTheMooon]

The wife wants a millionaire lifestyle on her husbands 200k income. And when he wants to downsize the life or asks her to work, she’ll file for divorce and take half of what he’s worth. Lose lose situation.

[ctVreZ]

40k each on a car? Man these people are the definition of keeping up with the Joneses.

[jonm.]

He married the wrong woman. This is a relationship problem- not a financial problem.

[flygirl]

Not caring what other people think is a life skill that is a sign of maturity. And it’s not just about money. It’s about all of your life choices and values. When you take on a mindset that what other people think of you is none of your business, your life improves dramatically.

[Outrageousconduct]

$200k per year and spending like drunken sailors

[TC-hcgp]

If the wife cares so much about the house next to the brother, sell the new house and they just removed 450k worth of debt. 😂

[spikescarberry]

The Ramsey show always knows how to make me feel better about my own financial situation. I never think I’m doing well enough but I’m not in this awful situation…

[MrJimmy]

200k a year and they think you can't live debt free?

[bovnycccoperalover]

Sell the "primary home" and move back into the old house.
