I don't really follow this guy and some people think he's a moron but if you tell someone they need to change their spending habits and they refuse.. Well, they are the bigger moron.

From the post:

>Financial guru, Dave Ramsey, tore into a Missouri couple after the husband reveals they have $240,500 of debt, but won't give up the family car - but they're not the only Americans unwilling to make urgent changes. John, of St. Louis, called into Ramsey's show last month to ask for help getting his and his wife's 'monster debt' under control, but the guru had no time for his antics after he told him he refused to get rid of the family car that was bogging them down with $28,000. 'John, I don't really care if it's the family car,' he said. 'You people are broke, you're starving to death making $150,000 a year. You don't get to say it's the family car, you get to say everything's on the table, we're selling so much stuff the kids think they're next.

It's R-selected reproduction strategy at work. They haven't been exposed to "if you have no money, you will freeze/starve/die" so they act like paychecks will always keep coming.

Yeah, I find that people that act like that tend to come from wealth (minor wealth) and never had to worry about anything and got whatever they want. Then they are no longer living with their parents that gave them anything they wanted anytime they wanted and they want to replicate that lifestyle without having the funds or intelligence to do it.

If you are at least average intelligence (For a White person) Making money is not all that hard if you are willing to work and have perseverance.
