The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

Yeah.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

Yeah, so as your careers increase, you're going to find more wiggle room probably.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

But, yeah.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

You're making an average American household income.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

$78,000 is the average right now.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

And you've done a great job, by the way, to stay out of debt.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

Most people in this situation call me up with a car payment or two and a student loan hanging around and then can't figure out why they're broke.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

Yeah.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

And so you guys don't fall into that.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

Yeah, you should be about $5,000 a month take home right now.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

So I'm still tickling my brain because it's $6,300.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

Now, I'm not talking about every two weeks.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

I'm talking about monthly.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

So that throws it a little bit because you've got two magic months if you're getting paid every two weeks, two magic months where you get three paychecks, and that throws the numbers off a little.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

So that might get you back to where you need to be.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

You might be right.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

It might be about right because you're not really making $4,500 a month.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

You see what I'm saying?

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

You've got two months where you get extra $2,200.

The Ramsey Show
Debt Steals Your Freedom - Fight For Financial Peace

There should be two where you've got a three-paycheck and one, and the rest of them are not.
