From the Ramsey Network, it's the Ramsey Show. The only live show where we talk about your life and your money with actual callers calling in, George. I am your host, Jade Warshaw. Next to me, as I just said, George. As in George Camel.

26.187 - 28.149 George Kamel

No last name. I'm like Cher. George.

28.749 - 47.379 Jade Warshaw

The George taking calls about your life and money. Like I said, you can call in at any point. The number 888-825-5225. If you call in and you have to leave a message, that's a good thing. It means we'll try to get you on the show at a later date. We're going to go straight to the phone lines where we have Brenda in Dallas, Texas. Brenda, how can we help today?

49.369 - 77.188 Brenda

Hi, I'm calling because in October of last year, my husband and I made the dumb, dumb, dumb decision of taking out a bridge loan to purchase a property. And it was with the idea that we would sell our previous property and pay off the loan, restructure the loan, and everything would be great. But we haven't been able to sell our old property, and the loan is due on June 1st.

77.248 - 81.831 Brenda

Interest has accrued like nobody's business. Oh, man.

81.871 - 85.353 George Kamel

What was the interest rate, and then what was the amount?

85.373 - 105.876 Brenda

So the total, they combined both properties, came out to $1.437 at $10.99. $10.99? ! Yeah. So apparently bridge loans, they explained to us, are always high interest like this. They're anywhere between 8 and 12. Man.

105.936 - 109.597 George Kamel

They even explained it to you and you guys said, sign us up. Let's do it.
