Dave Ramsey Plan

[CountValentine]

Alot ot the zero apr have a transfer fee as well.
I am in the financial service business, I have seen people that had it all written out, zero apr etc. But life is always not as planned. Banks are money making companies.

Of course you want 0 transfer fees and 0 or low interest.
The point I am making is it is valuable tool that he dismisses.
If you can't pay it off at 0% interest then DR himself will not be able to pay it off at 18%. This is simple math.
This is what I am talking about, common financial sense.

[CountValentine]

If you want to talk about his motivation on the plan that is fine. When you say it all makes sense on a financial level I will tear it apart.
Now when you put the two together then who knows.

You are like someone who is saying.

I only have buisnees debt (that is personal guaranteed), like the business is some third party.

Maybe your fine with this as well....

It's not always about the numbers or how you name it.

Sorry you lost me. I am talking personal debt.
Consolidating your CC's to the lowest possible interest rate is sound "financial" advice. Do you or anyone taking his course disagree with this?

Btw, Dave actually recommends to consolidate debt if it will save a bigger amount of money. But to consolidate or not is not the point.

Others here say his position is no. The first video he says no. Financial he is 100% wrong and I hope everyone understands that.
He gets back to you are the problem. The problem is he treats everyone like an idiot.
Here is a way for all of you to follow his debt snowball and pay it off sooner.
BT small amounts to different cards. This way you can pay off at 0% and still get that feel good feeling.
That tip is free.

WOW.
Paying off low balances also makes you feel better and is a temporary fix.

How is it a temporary fix?

[CountValentine]

How is it a temporary fix?

You still need to pay off the high balance debts and it is going to cost you more.

[CountValentine]

We can keep going in circles but I know you all understand what I am saying.
Do any of you feel comfortable enough were you are currently at to transfer your CC debt to a 0% card?
We can run the numbers but you all know it will save you money.

For those who know Yiddish.

The ending might be a little off. Might be better off with ending with זעצט מען אן....

His concept is that you can then use the payments you had been making to the smaller balance accounts towards the larger balances.

I fully understand his concept. 

[AussieMan]

@CountValentine I agree with you that DR pay off low balance rather than high interest debt is illogical.

Question for you,
If one is allowed to pay 100% of their tax bill in March, would you suggest regardless to pay in installments or rather to put the installments into a interest bearing account and then pay in full at year end.
If you have 0% apr card which you can pay in full each month,would you suggest to pay in full, or better don't pay until the promo is over and put $ into a savings account?

What would you do, and what would you tell others to do?

[CountValentine]

I always pay as late as possible.
0% cards I would pay minimum each month until BT 0% runs out.

During the BT frenzy I had over 200k @ 4.5-5% just sitting there.
I have 4 kids.
1 I would say do it and even more if you can.
2 others I would say do it and I would watch them
The other one H*LL NO!!!

Amazing

But doesn't keeping balances (even at 0%) hurt your score?

Yes.

The reason you don't get DR, is because you're a responsible and smart person who doesn't play stupid and doesn't borrow money unless they are certain they can pay back.
You are an exception to the rule, which is why 40-60% of American I have revolving credit card debt, and 70% have nothing in savings put away.
All those people need hand holding, motivation, and should not have debt at all, like child #4. DR helps them, because you're not their dad.
