I used to be a staunch supporter of Dave Ramsey but have been moving away from that school of thought. (Though I'm still heavily anti-debt). I really wish personal finance was a required course in highschool.

The ultra anti debt takes I think are small brained. Cheap debt that can yield returns is amazing.

For example, I love my mortgage with 3% interest.

Sure, low interest rates are great, but don't you want to own your home?

And starting a comment by calling someone small brained is small brained. 😊🤷

Enjoy your own personal finance. One of the things I've learned from not following everything Dave Ramsey says is that it's not my job to tell everyone how to spend their money.
