About this episode
🤔 Think you’re good with money? Take our Money in America quiz! Dave Ramsey and Rachel Cruze answer your questions and discuss: "Does it make sense to have a business credit card to get cash back on big purchases?" "We bought too much house, how do we balance paying this down vs.
investing?" "I'm 21 and still live at home with my parents. Should I sell my car so I can afford to move out?" "How do my fiancé and I combine finances when I have way more saved than he does?" "We have $235,000 in student loan debt and have a baby on the way. How do we get on the same page to tackle this debt?" "Why don't children have an obligation to care for parents financially?" "My wife wants to upgrade the house but I would rather pay down the mortgage. Which idea is better?" "Should I pull from retirement to purchase a second property?" “Can I afford to buy a Harley Davidson?” “What should we do about our daughter who refuses to pay parent PLUS loans?” "I made a dumb decision with my house. Should I file bankruptcy?" Next Steps: ✔️ Help us make the show better. Please take this short survey. 📞 Have a question for the show?
