The Sale of Debt

Debt has been sold to us so aggressively, so loudly, and so often that to imagine living without debt requires myth-busting. Debt is so ingrained into our culture that most Americans can’t even envision a car without a payment … a house without a mortgage … a student without a loan … and credit without a card. We’ve been sold debt with such repetition and with such fervor that most folks can’t conceive of what it would be like to have NO payments.

    Yeah, I’m big on it, too. For whatever reason, this was probably the first thing I heard Dave say (in the audiobook version) that has stuck with me ever since.

    Probably one of the hardest things to live by but one of the best quotes i have ever heard Dave say. We all feel it is impossible to live without debt, but if we can all picture ourselves without it… wouldn’t that just be a HUGE weight off of our shoulders! It IS possible. And if you think it is not possible for you, just listen to Dave Ramsey. He knows what he’s talking about!
