Caller: I have a gambling addiction. I haven’t filed taxes in five years. About five years ago, I had $200,000 in gambling winnings. After that, I haven’t filed anything. ​Dave Ramsey: Do you still have a career? ​Caller: I'm retired. ​Dave Ramsey: Okay. Do you have any money? Anything? ​Caller: I've got almost $10,000 in my savings account. ​Dave Ramsey: But you don't have a nest egg other than your pension. ​Caller: No. ​Dave Ramsey: Do you own a home? ​Caller: Yes. About $13,000 is remaining on the mortgage. ​Dave Ramsey: What is it worth? ​Caller: About $300,000. ​Dave Ramsey: And how much is your pension income? ​Caller: $95,000 a year. ​Dave Ramsey: That's good. Are you married? ​Caller: No. ​Dave Ramsey: Have you done something about the gambling addiction itself? Have you quit gambling? ​Caller: I have not. ​Dave Ramsey: Okay. So whatever we do is going to be a temporary fix because that is going to cause further problems. Agreed? ​Caller: Yes, absolutely. ​Dave Ramsey: What kind of gambling are you doing? ​Caller: Slot machines. ​Dave Ramsey: Are you lonely? ​Caller: Yeah. I've been single for quite a while. ​Dave Ramsey: How old are you? Caller: 61. Dave Ramsey: From working with people addicted to anything, I know that 100% of addicts eventually have financial problems. The addiction consumes every department of your life, including your financials. ​I can help you with the money parts of it, but it is a temporary fix until you deal with this. It's not bringing you joy. If you were my buddy sitting down over a cup of coffee, here is what I would tell you to do: Step 1: Get in touch with the Gamblers Anonymous folks in your area. ​Step 2: Find a good local church and start developing a personal relationship with a pastor who can walk with you. ​Step 3: Find a one-on-one professional counselor to help dig into what is really going on so you can get to the other side of this.

Dave Ramsey: How much student loan debt do you have? ​Caller: About $550,000 ​Dave Ramsey: $550,000? ​Caller: Yeah. ​Dave Ramsey: What is your field of study? ​Caller: Medicine. Family practice. ​Dave Ramsey: Why did it take $550,000 to do family practice? ​Caller: Poor decisions and misguided advice early on to not worry about loans. ​Dave Ramsey: Family practice. What are you looking at, a hundred and a half a year? ​Caller: $180,00] starting. ​Dave Ramsey: Why does it take eight years if you're making $180,000? You could live on $80,000, put $100,000 on it, and be done in five years. ​Caller: After taxes and tithing, I'm down to $110,000. We plan to put about $85,000 a year toward it, leaving $20,000 to $30,000 to live off of. With the interest rate, it will take about eight years. ​Dave Ramsey: Your income doesn't go up in your scenario? ​Caller: That is building in a 5% raise every year. ​Dave Ramsey: I think you'll get more raises than that. Can you work ER on the weekends? ​Caller: The place I'm signed with won't let me work other jobs so I don't come in tired. But they said they can put me to work as much as I need. ​Dave Ramsey: You could pick up another $100,000 a year working ER on the weekends if you have the stamina. I want to increase the size of your shovel. I'm not going to accept the eight years; I'm going with a four or five-year plan. And yes, I am going to delay retirement because this is a vast problem.

Dave Ramsey says a millionaire calling his show tried to justify taking out a loan for a $223,000 McLaren while earning $200,000 a year ​Caller: "Looking to purchase a McLaren 600LT Spider. The car is 223,000." ​Dave Ramsey: "Well, that's just a couple hundred grand. Good for you!" ​Caller: "The cost is 223,000. I think I'm in a good financial position to afford the car." ​Rachel Cruze: "What's your net worth?" ​Caller: "Around 1.4 million right now." ​Rachel Cruze: "Are you paying cash for the car?" ​Caller: "I can, but I know that there's also benefits with a leasing structure. I own a small tech company, and I'm earning about 5.3% right now on my high-yield interest savings account. I've got $15,000 on another auto loan, but that's locked in at 3.5% right now." ​Rachel Cruze: "Did you say you have a $15,000 loan laying around? Why?" ​Caller: "The big reason why I'm not paying it off is because it's locked in at 3.5%." ​Rachel Cruze: "But it'd be locked in at zero!" ​Dave Ramsey: "Have you factored in the depreciation? You're taking a 5% count against your 3.5%, but your car is going down in value. You're a millionaire! You have a $15,000 car debt? What are you doing?" ​Rachel Cruze: "What's your income every year?" ​Caller: "Salary with my company is about 110,000 a year, and then I pull a bonus between 90,000 and 120,000 a year." ​Rachel Cruze: "Okay, so that puts you at about 200,000 a year." ​Dave Ramsey: "You're going to spend that in a day!"

Caller: I'm $451,000 in total debt. $252,000 of that is student loans, and I have 185 in a home loan. I only bring in $70,000 a year. After pension and all that stuff taken out, it's more like $40,000. I just don't know where to start. ​Dave Ramsey: What do you do for a living? ​Caller: Law enforcement. ​Dave Ramsey: How do you get $252,000 in student loan debt to be a policeman? ​Caller: I went to a private institution because my mother wanted me to go there. I went there originally for finance, didn't do good, so I switched my major to criminal justice, and then eventually went on for a master's as well, which didn't really help my employment eligibility as much as I thought it would. ​Dave Ramsey: Is your mother wealthy? ​Caller: No, neither my mother nor my father. I'm the first in my family to go to college. ​Dave Ramsey: Mathematically, we always look at the ratio of shovel to hole. The amount of hole you're in versus the shovel you have, your debt to your income. Are you married? ​Caller: No, I have a girlfriend who lives with me, and her daughter as well. ​Dave Ramsey: What is this house worth? ​Caller: I actually just purchased it off of a whim. My father passed away and it was the last conversation we had. It was across the street from his house, and he really wanted me to get it, so I jumped in with both feet to honor him. ​Dave Ramsey: So you didn't put anything down, so the house is worth $185,000? ​Caller: Yeah. ​Dave Ramsey: How old are you? ​Caller: I'm 31. ​Dave Ramsey: When are you planning on marrying this girl? ​Caller: She's currently in school to finish up for nurse practitioner. Sometime after that, hopefully after January. ​Dave Ramsey: Does she have student loan debt? ​Caller: She does. ​Dave Ramsey: How much? ​Caller: I'm not sure because she's not really on board with all this. I've tried to bring this up to her when listening to your show recently, and her thing is, "I'm too busy with school and don't want to worry about that right now." ​Dave Ramsey: I think you're the voice of experience that says it's a good idea to worry about it, otherwise you end up up a creek, which is where you are right now, and your paddle is real small. ​You told me in a five-minute conversation of two really stupid financial decisions you made from the influence of your mother and your father. You bought things you couldn't afford with money you didn't have, because of their influence. ​At 31 years old, you're going to have to decide to love your parents but no longer be influenced to do financial decisions based on their opinion, or even your perceived opinion of what your father would have thought. You cannot please these people anymore. They are breaking you. You make $70,000 a year and you're so far in debt you can't breathe. ​Buying a house you can't afford, going to a school you shouldn't have gone to and paying twice or three times as much for an education that you didn't even need to do the job you do. Am I wrong? ​Caller: Right. No, not at all. ​Dave Ramsey: Number one, that influence has to stop. Number two, you can't afford this house as a single guy making $70,000 a year.
