Dave Ramsey

Butt scratching backlash

Dave makes reference to his rant last week on butt scratching and bass fishing. He then reads a comment from Julie, who has something to say about it. Get a load of Dave's attitude here.

Bravo Dave!! Well said!! Now, why won't any of the politicians listen?

Amen! I am so tired of people preaching about how there are children who are starving and yet they don't do anything about it. Dave, you inspire me to work harder and to be wise with the money God has given me. That in itself is an incentive to share what I have. The government does not inspire that in us.

Julie's email: wealthy people don't contribute unless FORCED to...

Hmmm...I have NEVER heard Dave Ramsey say he and his wife are forced to tithe...but I sure have heard him explain why he, and all of us, are to give.

Julie needs to watch "The Great Misunderstanding".

Absolutely! We see this so clearly, why can't they?

If Julie would have listened more to Dave, she
would have heard that one of the main things he
says is to tithe and do even more than just 10%
and how good it makes you feel to give and do
for others. Sadly, there are too many Julie's
in the world that feel that government should be
their sole support. That is why our country is
in such bad shape now. Nobody wants to work for
it they just want the instant gratification.
Dave has worked hard and paid his dues, to me he
is an inspiration. An icon to look at and say,
gosh he did it, so can I. Keep up the great work!

I guess Julie never heard about Bill Gates and his monetary contribution actions with his wealth.
Many wealthy have Foundations that do great work. While not all Scottish Rite Masons are millionaires,
the Scottish Rite Hospitals do a lot of work on children who are handicapped or burn victums and the
parents are not changed a penny. What about Danny Thomas's St. Jude Children's Research Hospital again
known not to charge some parents.
