69 - Dave Ramsey Is Dead Wrong When It Comes To Buying Your First Home In 2022 And Beyond Jan 25, 2022

Show notes

Not all advice pertains to everyone, and when it comes to finances, especially buying a home, the opinions differ WILDLY. In this episode, David Sidoni discusses money left on the table and money lost due to the ultra-conservative and uber-safe wealth-building techniques from Dave Ramsey. This is NOT a super risky leverage advice podcast. This is an exploration of the new era of "safe" home buying in a world of super-low interest rates, rising prices, and bolting inflation. Debate is good. Conversation creates options and opens doors you never knew were there. Be curious...not judgmental.
