It’s not about “what we have already given”, it’s about optics. My wife can hardly understand our contract rules let alone how I get paid and all the factors influencing my monthly TFP totals so how do you expect Joe Smoe or even our “cohearts” to understand. All they see is we have not taken a BASE pay decrease to “share in the struggle” we are being Virtue Shamed.
For those who have not had a non-union job this is how it goes. You show up to work and are told you have been given a pay decrease, and that X amount of people will now be part time, X amount have been let go, and no overtime.

I think if you are applying his advice to airline pilots we would say "sell your second and third car, your vacation house, boat, airplane, and apply to the court to have your alimony to wives 1 and 2 lowered.

actually was never fond of him. To me he was always a cross breed of Dr Phil, Joel Osteen, and Suze Orman. Most of his callers would sit in the audience of a talkshow. Hello Caller how may I help. Hi Dave, I am a divorced mother of five and file bankrupcty three times, can you help.
If you peel back the onion nothing he says is cosmic or magic. Don't outspend what you earn, save for a rainy day, and dont make stupid decisions in life.
now he also pushes life insurance "Ramsey trusted advisor" and getting your teeth fixed.

Ramsey got rich and famous selling his ideas to the average or below average person who couldn't figure out how not to be in debt.. It's pretty simple. Don't buy a lot of **** you can't afford. And if you do, pay it off.. It's not rocket science.
If you're an auto mechanic working at Jiffy Lube, changing oil for a living, you don't get to live in a million dollar pool home in CA. Too many people buy houses/cars way beyond their means because some lender says they can afford it. Accountability would be a wonderful thing for people to have.
My parents would be prime Ramsey targets.
Hold the line... Once one domino falls the rest will follow.
