Question: Howard is around $300,000 in debt due to child support and medical bills. Currently he is trying to support his disabled wife and her two children on $1,200 per month. He's tired of living paycheck to paycheck and wants a change.

Dave Ramsey's answer: Being a truck driver you should be making more than $14,000 a year. You cannot keep doing what he is doing or you are going to keep getting what you are getting. To tackle this debt you need to get a new job at e new company or even a new location. Howard, you need to double or even triple your income to pay off this debt.
