    Dave Ramsey did a really interesting about 2 hour interview with Tucker Carlson a few days ago. Forget about the politics crap, this was really good. DR talked about Americans being debt slaves, etc. You can find it on Apple Podcasts or here is the YT video.

    I will listen to that. Dave has been doing interviews recently. He did his Trumpy interview. He did an interview with Ben Shapiro. Ramsey’s operation and Shapiro‘s operation both work out of the Nashville area. In fact, had I known that when I went to Franklin, Kentucky (where the Ramsey studio is) last year I would’ve stayed over a day to be in their studio audience,

    Most people are not gonna believe this when I say that I didn’t know what Tucker Carlson looks like until he left Fox.

    See, I never watch news TV. Now that Carlson is off Fox he does podcasts and interviews and etc., and those are showing up on my YouTube feed, not I’ve listened to any of his stuff.

    Cancelled my Apple credit card. No balance. Want using it anyway. Don’t care about the hit credit score will take. I still have the Chase card I’ve had for ages.

    I have two credit cards - period. Don't need or want any others. I really like keeping my finances simple. Hope it carries over to retirement.
