>“The American dream is not dead. Your life is not horrible,” Ramsey said in a recent conversation with “Ramsey Show” personality George Kamel. “This is the best time in the history of man to be alive. The stock market is at an all time high, wages are rising".>He even joked that he became a millionaire twice, saying it took him two tries because he “was so dumb” the first time.>“There’s no reason to be hopeless. There’s always a way to take another step in the right direction. The American system is not devastatingly flawed to the point that the average person can't become rich with hard work and dedication".>On a recent episode of “The Ramsey Show,” Ramsey pushed back on a viral post that idealized 1950s homeownership. The post claimed that a single-income Ford factory worker could afford a house, a car and a stay-at-home spouse. Ramsey wasn't impressed. “I’m looking at the house. It’s clapboard. It’s not got a brick on it. It’s got one bath. No microwave. No pulsating showers or jacuzzis or skylights,” he said. “You would not do this today if we offered it to you. You would say, ‘Oh, the American Dream is broken. You want me to live in a tiny house?'".>“In America today, you can just wake up and breathe and have a really good life,” Ramsey told Kamel. “Just kind of coast through the whole stupid thing. But if you really want to win now, you’re going to have some pain.”
young people are fantasizing about living in vans and prebuilt shit that looks like a fucking shipping container but boomers won't realize until there is a violent repricing of US homes and then it will be too late as confidence nosedives in every industry
Dave Ramsey can live in the shoes of the average 20 year old in 2026 and he can maintain his position then if he wishes, or he can shut the fuck up and stop being spammed by faggots like OP on /biz/.
>>61644471>The stock market is at an all time high>therefore this is the best time to be aliveWhy are Boomers so fucking retarded holy shit
>>61644471I wish I lived in prewar (ww1) western Europe.
>>61644725and die from the flu?
>>61644716By his logic Covid was the pinnacle of US quality of life.
>>61644471I love how he's resorted to trolling everybody now. I thought that he had more integrity than that. Oh well.
>>61644725I wish that I was born in Switzerland in 1928 lol
>wealthy 68yo boomer says that you're crazy for not enjoying the huge stock gains as a result of massive inflation in the last 15 years>this is the best time ever!
>>61644471He's correct, but only for the top 10%
The only way the last year would have been okay is me getting a 10x on 8000 dollars, thhen 10xing that a second time somehow. Was it possible? Sure, KTA->Zcash. Was it likely> Fuck no.
>>61644471Where's my job and wife then?I'm great about saving money, it's my counter party that never fucking shows up.
>>61644716Well he means in terms of being able to earn money. It was never this easy in the past to casually make triple digit gains in a day or two buying silver etf’s for instance. You were lucky if you had a +5% year back a few decades ago.
>>61644471I guarantee you that house now is either a trap house, or 500k-1mil without renovations depending on how poor your city is. It's almost like it's actually desirable, no matter what this delusional boomer says.These days a starter house is 350k-450k for an exurb that's over an hour from work.
>>61644716Because boomers live in a world of assets, they have assets. When you have things, its good when things cost more becuase its means you own more. Gen Y and Gen Z live in a world a debt, more expensive things just means a deeper hole.
Life is so much better now! For example, think about all of the advances in healthcare. Sure, you can't actually afford to get healthcare when you are sick. But the IDEA of how advanced it would be if you could afford it should make you proud.And who would want to live in a clapboard shack? It's better to be homeless than suffer the humiliation of clapboard. "You might think you do, but you don't."
They're hiding a lot of info from us. Mid females get thousands of requests and messages. Jobs, well, on those portals you can see how many people applied for a job. Most jobs have been applied by thousands of people. What the hell is going on? I'm starting to think that there are way more males than females in society. I know that in this day and age, a female can do everything from her place with a couple of apps. But still, the numbers are fishy.
