DAVE SAYS

S a l l i e M a e v s . Paying the selling the car parents Dear Dave,

Dear Dave,

II make about $70,000 a year, and I have $9,000 in student loan debt. I also have a car that would bring enough to allow me to pay off the student loans. Do you think I should sell?

I have $1,000 in credit card debt, a $12,000 car loan and I owe my parents $20,000. The loan from my parents is causing stress because all I can afford to give them is $200 a month. They don’t need the money, but they’d like to see it paid off soon. What can I do?

Dave Dear Dave,

Who Is Dave Ramsey? Dave Ramsey is a personal money management expert, popular national radio personality and the author of three New York Times bestsellers – The Total Money Makeover, Financial Peace Revisited and More Than Enough. In them, Ramsey exemplifies his life’s work of teaching others how to be financially responsible, so they can acquire enough wealth to take care of loved ones, live prosperously into old age, and give generously to others. Ramsey knows first-hand what financial peace means in his own life, having lived living a true rags-toriches to rags-to-riches story. By age 26 he had established a $4,000,000 real estate portfolio, only to lose it by age 30. He has since rebuilt his financial life and now devotes himself full-time to helping ordinary people understand the forces behind their financial distress and how to set things right - financially, emotionally and spiritually. Ramsey offers life-changing financial advice as host of a nationally syndicated radio program, “The Dave Ramsey Show,” which is heard by three million listeners each week on more than 300 radio stations throughout the United States. His syndicated column, “Dave Says,” can be read in more than 250 publications worldwide. He resides with his wife, Sharon, and their three children, Denise, Rachel, and Daniel, in Nashville, Tennessee.

Vol. 16 Issue 864 December 7 - 14, 2012

Nice name! Seriously, there are two questions I ask when it comes to selling a car to pay off debt. One, is the value of your car and other vehicles—including motorcycles, boats and such— more than half of your yearly income? If so, then you have way too much money wrapped up in things that are going down in value. So, unless you’re talking about a superexpensive car, I’d say the answer on this one is no. The second question is this: Can you become debt-free, except for your home, in 18–24 months without selling the car? If the answer is yes, then I wouldn’t sell the car. There’s no reason to sell your car in this scenario, unless you just really hate the thing or need different transportation. In this case, it sounds like your car is a reasonable percentage of your income. I’d hold on to it and just save like crazy to kill off this student loan debt. With your income, it shouldn’t take more than a year. Good luck, Dave!

Jacob Dear Jacob, If you’re not already living on a written, monthly budget, that should be the ﬁrst step. You say your parents don’t need the money, right? So, they’re not living on bread and water without your payments. I think the biggest thing causing them stress is the fear that you’re being irresponsible and living without a plan. Make out a simple, realistic budget, and sit down with them to explain what you’re doing and how you plan to address things. Start a debt snowball, and begin knocking out your debts smallest to largest. By the time you pay off the credit cards and the car, you’ll be able to give them lots more than $200 a month. Just ask mom and dad to stick with you a while longer. I think it will make them feel better to see that you’re serious about getting your ﬁnances in order! —Dave

Today is Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day – a “day that will live infamy.” Although it is not a Federal holiday, it is a perfect day to remember and honor those who were killed in the attack 71 years ago. I have been working in a small, two physician doctors’ office for the last 3 years. I have worked my way from receptionist to office manager in that short time and I am always given praise by my bosses for my can-do attitude and adaptability. In addition to the daily oversight of day-to-day office tasks, I have been working exceptionally hard on a project that involves an outside vendor. Last week, the CEO of that vendor, a $550 million dollar/year IT company, paid us an onsite visit. My boss said that within 10 minutes of meeting me, he had already asked if I would work for his company and asked 2 more times before leaving our office that day. Of course my boss failed to tell me any of this until today. Even though I don’t know what position he was thinking of hiring me for, I am very, VERY interested in pursuing a job with his company. I have the CEO’s email address and

have been debating e-mailing him but don’t know what to say. Do you think it would be a bad idea to ask for a job through e-mail? And if not, how do I ask without sounding desperate? Thanks Diana! -Orange County, California Reader What a compliment to you! Your boss didn’t tell you about the offers because they don’t want to lose you. You’re going to use subtlety in approaching the CEO because you want to seem unaware of the offers in case he wasn’t entirely sincere. This will get him to make the first step. Just say that you really enjoyed the meeting last week and look forward to continuing to work with him in the future. Then tell him that while working on this project, you learned so much that it has really sparked your interest in his company. Then just sign it as best regards and wait. You shouldn’t have to wait long if he is serious. If you look at this on the surface, it will just be a nice email that acknowledges the work that you’ve done with the project. He may read this differently and get back to you with a suggestion for a job. Play it cool and you won’t be viewed as disloyal - and you won’t step on anyone’s toes. You have more control and aren’t asking for anything. In addition, you’ll be able

to evaluate the job he wants to give you and make up your mind about whether you want it – or not. Good luck. I recently moved to the USA/ Houston to be with my wife and left a good job working with the government. I had plans to stay their and retire as the pay and benefits were good. But after moving here its been a struggle to get a job that I can say I wanna work here for a long time. In the past three years I have tried warehouse jobs where the leads/ supervisors are modern day slave drivers. I have tried valet, fueling planes, cleaning planes etc but all of these they pay minimum wage to $9 hr. What jobs do you recommend for Legal Immigrants who want to provide for their families? Also, I am a 28 year old high school graduate who wants to go back to school but not having a stable job that pays decent, I can’t get to go back. I am currently employed at a car rental part time where I work four days per week and plan to get another part time job to make ends meet. I am saving up to get a TWIC card to see if I can get a better job and maybe a long term job with stability.

common knowledge in every country that allows you to use contacts to find work as well as build on the work you have already done.
