He needs to be foolish. If he tells the truth. No more viewers to lie to. This country is going to fall and burn. He'll never say anything close to that. I guess car prices have always been like this, too. 1000.00 payments per month.

Dave has no understanding of reality. At the beginning of the video he mentions that his parents bought a house in 1963 for $12,230. In 1963 the median household income in the US was $6200 per year. So the house his parents bought cost about twice the median income for that year. He also mentions that today that house is worth about $400k. And today the median household income is about $74k. So that house his parents bought went from costing about 2 times the US median household income to 5.4 times the US median household income. And later in the video he talks about how not everyone can afford to live in downtown Manhattan. His point is that sometimes there are certain places where the housing is just so expensive that you have to go move elsewhere. He is right. However the problem is that in many, many areas of the country there is no other affordable place to live. For example - if you are a family that has a household income of $85,000 and you are currently renting and living in the suburbs of Washington, DC there literally are NO homes that you can afford within a 100 mile radius. And once you do look far enough away to find a home you can afford then you have to move to a more rural area. And guess what? There are no jobs in that area where you can still make $85,000 per year. But Dave doesn't want to hear it because he is still living in the past. I don't know why he doesn't want to admit that this is a real problem and that it is fundamentally different than things have been in the past.

@PrisonerD

Real estate often has short term increases like that, but they don't last long - it's pretty normal. The market will run out of steam, then prices will either go backwards or there will be a plateau that lasts for a long time - 10 or 15, even 20 years. Houses will slowly get more affordable again as wages rise. We bought in the early 2000s boom. House prices tripled in our area over 4 years (we bought when they were about half way though the cycle so our house rose by about 50% in 2 years after we bought). My father thought we were insane paying what we did and would never be able to pay our house off. He was losing sleep at night over it! Prices then didn't move at all for 10 years. Around 2011, prices went on the march again for a couple of years and then went stagnant, and now they're risen again. The cycle will continue. The 5% per year or whatever houses have risen over time isn't linear - your house doesn't continually go up year on year (the house we upgraded to in 2014 after the 2011 - 14 price rally dropped by 20% after we bought it and stayed there for 8 years until the current boom). On the raw figures you'd say - look, your house doubled in 10 years, but in reality it didn't. It doubled in 2 years at the end of the 10 years. For most of that time it was worth less than what we paid. No doubt it will now plateau off again or even fall from these highs.

"Adjust your sails." Sorry, that was not my experience at all as a young adult starting out and I would have been freaked out too.

Inflation is caused by the government. Creating more money to borrow and spend is a perfect recipe for inflation. That raises the cost of everything. More income is chasing housing. It is greater wealth which is driving up prices. Not everyone is winning. They are now whining. Government regulation such as zoning and environmental costs are adding to cost and restricitng supply. This is predictable.

HA HA HA HA this wins the Internet today!

For how much emphasis Dave places on having a family and having many children and grandchildren, he sure doesn't seem to think that a median house should be affordable to start said family. A responsible couple will not start a family until they have enough money to buy a place they can afford and that is suitable to start a family. The problem is because house prices have inflated so much faster than wages, by the time that couple saves up enough, biology bites them and they can't have children at all. You can't have it both ways unless you want to raise a family in a crappy apartment in the bad part of town, which has an influence on the children and how they turn out whether you want to admit it or not. You can't have it all ways. So either you go anti-natalist to afford the house that you would have used to start a family, or you bring up your family in a negatively influencing environment. Those are not good choices for most people.

In the 60s home prices were less than 3x thr avg annual income, today it's 7x. They have simply because unaffordable for regular people

The arrogance he has while being completely factually wrong is astounding

**HERE IS THE MATH PEOPLE** According to the US Census In 1963 the average US household income was about $6200 per year. So that means Dave's parents paid about 2x their annual salary at 4.5% interest as he stated. TODAY, the average US family income is about $77,000 per year and the cost of the average home right now is about $385,000 with current 30 year fixed interest rates of about 7%. So that's about 5x the annual salary. What does this all mean?.... The average price of a home right now is about 2 and a half times more expensive today than it was in 1963. If you factor in the higher interest rated that puts it at more like 3 and a half more expensive. Not to mention all of the other expenses like food and utilities are exponentially more expensive compared to the lower rate if increased family income. Dave Ramsey does not understand math at all. The bigger issue is the fact that we now live in a global economy, a problem that his parents never had to deal with and guess what, America is sliding on the global economic level while places like China and India are catching up. Dave's parents home went up 33x in value over 50 years, do you really think your 400k home today will be worth $13 million bucks in 50 years? Heck no and you know why, IT'S THE GREEDY UNREGULATED GLOBAL PRIVATE SECTOR. THEY WILL HAVE EVERYTHING AND YOU AND I WILL HAVE NOTHING! But we do have shorter life expectancies and higher retirement ages to look forward to so flip a coin because if you're under the age of 50 living in American you basically have a 50% chance of being dead and buried before you reach retirement age. The irony is that we will all be slaves, regardless of our color. As our society collapses perhaps this is perfect irony for us white folks, that we should become slaves along side all of our fellow American slaves to the corporate greed. I guess karma is a bitch.

What Dave should acknowledge here is the Ramsey "15 year fixed spending no more than 25% (or whatever their figure is) mortgage" mortgage for the average family is getting damn near impossible for most households.

And if you, budget, be debt free, live on less than you make, you wouldn't have to work 60+ hrs a week and feel like you're middle class. Listen to Dave more

It's housing prices relevant to wages that's the issue. Dave always ignores this factor. back when his grandparents bought a house, women typically didn't work, there were less immigrants in western countries (don't make this a xenophobic thing, it's just fact) and jobs couldn't be done online by someone else in a different country. My point being: There's SIGNIFICANTLY more competition in the job market these days and thus wages are exceptionally low comparative to the astronomical asset price inflation we've seen, particularly over the last 3 decades. Affordable housing simply doesn't exist anymore. In the same Metros where people are spending >50% of their take home pay on rent we're also seeing record levels of cash purchases. The majority of house buying is currently being done by the extremely wealthy. It's the same thing with the record levels of migration to cities we're experiencing in the west. People are flocking towards said rich people for work. Columbia has a smaller population than the UK but several cities that eclipse the size of London. Why? Because living out in the countryside is too expensive. The west is becoming an ever increasingly unequal country and unequal countries don't have cute little towns for ordinary people, they have slums for ordinary people. To say "it's the same as it always has been" is factually wrong. The middle class is dying. Wealth disparity is growing. The west is falling. I don't mean to doom post but the facts all state this. I also say this as a man who is in the top 10% in terms of net worth for my age. And even I feel broke.

Did the population grow? If it did, prices go up more. You won't buy the same house for the same price or even same relative price. Often one can't afford to re-biy their same house. This is normal.

Nah, you would just have to make more money, budget for a bigger house down payment and consistently stay out of debt. If you were searching for a home, you could do it.

A milllionaire with a massive real estate and rental portfolio thinks we shouldn’t whine about the price to purchase? Shocking!

So he wants us to cash flow a $30-$50k college degree, take on no debt, save, then live on the ring 100 miles away from town because it’s all that’s affordable? GOD he’s so out of touch.

If you invest like, $10-15k in a 529 account from when your kid is 1 yrs old to 18, that will cover more than you need for college. Also that is not even investing anything else into it either lol, being debt free is easily attainable and what everyone should strive for so they can afford college and that goes into your third victimhood point. Being debt free will allow you to buy a home closer to work, or where you want to live because you will have the margin to save up for a bigger down payment. You are out of touch LOL

@@Will-jg2zs yeah, but my parents (along with millions of others) DIDNT invest $10-$15k in an account for college, so your point is moot. I’m not trying to be a “victim”- I live within my means, and I’m on the ring 40 miles outside of the city I work in, I just think his idea is out of touch.

No Dave house prices just went up 25 to 40% depending where you live but our salary only went up 3 to 5 so there's a big difference

We are in a super good position and the lucky ones, and I still get annoyed how people don’t realize how dire the situation is for younger millenials and gen z. We’re millenials, bought our home in 2016 for 248k on an income of 74k. A modest 3 bedroom ranch from the 70’s. We are now at 125k and our house is worth 410k. That’s insane! We would struggle buying this same house now on an average income. Even with this pretty high income I think it’s crazy what the monthly payment would be given the higher interest rate. It’s not normal! I count my blessings every day we already own a home. But we are also making sacrifices in housing now as we are expecting our 5th and will have 4 boys in a smallish room. Ideally we would’ve moved up in house now, but we can’t and also are just not willing to pay so much more money on a house. It just feels out of touch to what the problem actually is. People are making A LOT of money and still can’t live a normal life. And I hate that everyone is saying because the young folks want luxury. It’s just not true

1:19 yes cause it’s True. Says he know housing prices have gone up, yet still tries to justify on how we should be fine with it. And then you got all the ‘Yes Mans’ there that have to agree with him or else. It’s not whining when we’re simply just telling how it is

One point to clarify this, the wealthy do save up enough to buy their next assets. They do not save as a means of building wealth or as a retirement strategy

People aren't going to stop because this is a corrected market. It is only going to get more expensive unless a massive amount of inventory magically hits the market. Housing construction is WAY behind housing demand, so the prices you see are what it costs given the scarcity. It didn't help that the US government destroyed over 20% of the dollars value in 18 months by printing trillions of dollars and dumping it into the economy. That made it even harder for people to save for a down payment for a house as their savings lost a lot of value.

Here in Houston, Tx as early as 10 years ago, you could buy a new house for $80k. Those houses are easily worth 225k. When wages didn’t multiply by 2.5

I purchased a new construction build in Arizona in 2022. I now work remotely for my employer and reside in Knoxville, Tennessee. Housing is far more affordable in Tennessee, but the wages are also far lower. It seems to me you either purchase a home on a 30-year fixed rate mortgage (what I have done) or live in a former trap house using DR's recommendation of a 15-year mortgage.
