DAVE SAYS How Grown up are M ov i n g i n w i t h

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. PAGE

You Going to Be?

Mom

Dear Dave,

Dear Dave,

Recently, I got married and I have $10,000 in student loan debt. I have $50,000 that came from my grandmother, but the money is in a trust controlled by my father, who is an attorney. He says I should use it all to buy a small house outright. I think it makes more sense to pay down my student loan debt. Who’s right? Elizabeth

We’re on Baby Step 1 of your plan, and we have $1,000 saved. We have a baby, my husband brings home about $2,000 a month, and we have $50,000 in debt, the majority of which is student loans. My mother-in-law has offered to let us move in with her for a while in order to pay off our debts more quickly and save up to buy a house. Does this sound like a good idea?

Dear Elizabeth,

Ann

Why not completely pay off the student loan, and put $40,000 toward a big down payment on a house? I’m sorry, but your dad is just plain wrong on this one. You should be debt-free before you buy property, because if you aren’t, Murphy will move into your spare bedroom. Plus, he’ll bring his three cousins—Broke, Desperate and Stupid—with him.

Dear Ann,

Now, part of the reason I’m saying your dad is wrong is based on the assumption that you guys are going to be responsible and live on a plan that’s logical and mature. If he knows better and has seen evidence that you’re irresponsible, he may have decided he’s not releasing the money in a way that would allow you to potentially blow it all. So really, a lot of it depends on where you and your husband are in the growth process as a young married couple. Are you going to budget and live on less than you make? Are you going to have a plan and clearly defined goals for your future and your money, perhaps use the remaining $40,000 as a methodology to build up an even bigger down payment? Or, are you going to use the fact that the student loan is gone to consume even more? In other words, how grown-up are you going to be? —Dave

If your husband can get his income up, I’d prefer that you guys maintain your own residence. Moving in with a parent would be my last choice, if for no other reason than keeping your independence and maintaining some dignity. Plus, it’ll just be better for your marriage. But you don’t need to even think about buying a house until you first clean up the mess you’ve made. Still, if things get so tight you feel like you have to take your mother-in-law up on her offer, make it for a very limited amount of time. Write it down as an agreement too. I’d say a minimum of six months, but definitely no more than a year. During this time you guys need to get on a killer budget, knock out a bunch of debt, and pile up as much cash in savings as you can. Then, find yourselves an inexpensive place to rent for a while. Hopefully, by that time your husband’s income will have increased. But the big thing is to get stuff straight in your mind about this situation. Make sure everyone involved knows the arrangement is temporary and that you and your husband are serious about doing the hard work it’ll take to put your financial house in order. You guys shouldn’t still be living with a parent two or three years down the road! —Dave

Dave Ramsey is America’s most trusted voice on money and business. He’s authored four New York Times best-selling books: Financial Peace, More Than Enough, The Total Money Makeover and EntreLeadership. The Dave Ramsey Show is heard by more than 5,000,000 listeners each week on more than 500 radio stations. Follow Dave on Twitter at @DaveRamsey and on the web at daveramsey.com. Issue 836

Ask Diana If you have any questions about interviewing, hiring, or work, just email Ask Diana. I’d love to hear from you. Due to the volume of response, not every question will appear in the column, but most questions will receive an email response within 2 to 3 days.

We live in the DC area and are looking to move back to Texas. I was thinking about hiring a headhunter to find me a position. Do you know one you can recommend? I am also looking at JobSparx to find jobs. Quick background to help you help me...LOL: Ok, I left the Marine Corps and have been working as a consultant on various MC acquisition projects. I have been extremely fortunate getting on big projects with nice salaries because of my MC experience and have attained many skills that I often see in job descriptions. I have my associate’s degree and want to continue for my Bachelor’s degree, of course. Texas has an act that allows vets to attend for up to 150 credit hours for free. My problem isn’t being able to do some of the jobs or meeting the descriptions – it’s the lack of a college degree. That’s why I believe a headhunter could help me: They could be my voice to a company that otherwise may never consider my resume. If I am wrong about my rationale or approach,

please let me know, no sugar coating. I appreciate you giving me your insight! -Washington, DC Reader You would never “hire” a headhunter. If any recruiter tells you to pay him/ her a fee, run. Companies pay the headhunter to find them the exact person they need. If the company were so cheap that they required you to pay, you wouldn’t want to work for them anyway! With your very specialized background and experience, a headhunter might be a good choice. The best way to find the one you need is by referrals or by searching online and referencing your specialty. FYI: Another name for “headhunter” is “Executive Recruiter,” and not surprisingly, most recruiters prefer that to “headhunter.” Since you will be in the process of getting your degree, and because you work for such a prestigious consulting company, I feel sure that any competent recruiter can sell your qualifications to a good company. I wanted to see if you can give me any advice on my dilemma. I’ve been a college student for nearly 5+ years.

I have attended both LoneStar at Kingwood and Sam Houston and am still working on my bachelor’s at Sam for a psychology minor in CJ. At Kingwood I have gotten and will get: Medical Office Receptionist Certificate, Medical Assistant, Medical Office Administrator Associate’s, and an Associate in Arts. I also have a certificate in Medical Office Billing and Coding. The problem is this: I have applied almost everywhere to get a place for my internship to finish my Associate Degree, but I’m not getting replies, or else I’m being told that I’m over/underqualified. I have applied with 2 temp agencies, but they have not sent me for a job. Is there something I’m doing wrong or am I going to be facing this problem for life? I am bilingual English/Spanish and my last job ended in 2002 after 6 years as a cashier. I am sincerely regretting going to college. -Kingwood, Texas Reader Have you been pursuing all of these degrees and certifications at the same time? No wonder you are having problems finding a job.You have not had a single focus, and employers

don’t understand exactly what it is you want. I don’t understand exactly what you want! Sit down with a counselor or trusted advisor and make a list of things you want to do as well as things you don’t want to do. Tell them – and tell me – which job you would love the most. What would make you happy to go to work every morning? After making that decision, let’s talk about the actions that you need to take to achieve your goal. Just remember that you have to have an actual goal and direction. You will not be facing this problem for the rest of your life because right now we are going to use a laser-like focus to move you forward.
