Dave Ramsay instead of Jay Saturday Night

I like Dave Ramsey. Sure, like most things on the radio, it's rather repetitive, but that's what sells. I love his concepts about finances and life in general. I think that most people who dislike him, probably don't agree with his philosophies and are most likely drowning in debt (most announcers probably fit into this category). Oh yeah, and I am debt free!
 
I've been debt-free much of my life, and I really don't disagree with Dave Ramsey's principles.
But good grief, if you hear one Dave Ramsey show, you've heard 'em all.
I can't recall when I first heard him (1994?), but that must be a cool gig--saying the same things over and over and getting paid handsomely for it.
And being able to afford all the things his fans can't buy.
 
you said it, Multiplex. Ramsey's show will go on forever. The down-homey, safe (as in non-controversial) topics and you get the same thing every day with no surprises. And people ask why McDonalds makes billions...
 
The guy could go on vacation and you'd never know if he's in best of or not.

Nobody seems to care.

Reality: there's always someone in our society who has just gotten themselves too far into debt and they latch on to his show. To them, the advice is brand new. Then they get bored with it, but there's always someone new who has never heard it before.

Plus it helps him sell the seminars, either the ones he does or the ones trained by his people who do them at local churches. The intro seminar at my church was free, but the "Financial Peace University" cost $100.

Call Dave what you want, but he's no fool.
