Control the Controllables (Don’t Wait for Washington To Save You) | June 28, 2024 

Agreed. And the hype is real, seeing a streamer cry from happiness and things is definitely addicting to watch let alone being the person to make it happen on my own.

A sub sounds delicious rn

I believe this lol I had a friend that gave some stupid amount and it’s just wild

@@Charlessandberg2 cheesesteak or a Reuben?

​@@rosedevereux2391Italiano my friend.

10:48

Smart man

They worked well together, good balance.

Oh dr john. Shut up. Andy just wants financial advice...

100%! I'd listen to this pair daily

Super annoying to me loll

That’s because it’s unbelievably loser behavior.

It's definitely new to me too. That's wild!

They're older so it makes sense why they're out of touch in that regard. Although it felt like they were beating on him for not merging accounts or whatever

Very true

Indeed true! I've seen it happen PLENTY of times.

I agree

Brave moment

I agree, let it go back

Same here man it was terrible advice especially since they had no assets

Yeah I didn’t understand that answer. She said he has weeks left, they have no assets, and it’s only FIL’s name on the camper. There is no reasons the MIL should use the only money she has to pay it.

This would be a great deep dive program, not sure if a call in would work becuase everyone has so many nuances. Great idea tho.

@@jpsy422 I agree - with the baby boomers aging out there are 10s of Thousands of us kids who need help navigating

Pretty simple. Dave would have said to move up when the time is right and NOT move in with the in-laws. No addition either. Just hang back and buy the house when right.

I think John ends up making all the calls about mental/emotional issues. Not everything is fear based or anxiety based.

No

They did fine. They make 120k and want a 900k house. It’s too much house.

Steely Dan?! Dave needs to drug test Jade because she must be high!

@@Radraden I saw you in Rudys. You were very high. YOU were high. It was a crying disgrace.

Thank you. It’s also not the nicest thought that your children are being cared for by someone who doesn’t love the job.

Yep! Calling him dude and bro was so demeaning. Dr. D likes to display his dominance over other men. Shaming the guy near the end who wanted to get out of debt, but his wife was hesitant, was also so cringe. If the genders had been reversed, he would have totally laid into the husband and called him a child. Dr. D loves to call men "child". Maybe he should look in a mirror.

So he is watching pretty young women gaming?

AGREE. RUDE!!!!

90% of the calls they take are children aged 25-85 needing to learn how to think like an adult. Grown ups don't involve themselves in gaming or other addictive behaviors, so it can be difficult to relate. They don't have time to google things while they're taking a call. If not relating to this guy makes him unprofessional, then I'm guilty as well. Stop escaping life and live in the real world. If anything, he wasn't rude enough.

Yup, I was laughing so hard because they’re so naive to not know it’s the girls with the jugs all his $ is going to 😂 He’s got a hardcore porn addiction, not gaming

Ya I was thinking he was probably making donations on OnlyFans 😆 I hope not.

@@moonbeamsandsparkles It's naive to think who it's going to is relevant. All hat matters is he's throwing money to stupid people.

Pretty much. I’m 95 percent sure the ppl he is giving money to are fine chicks

My 2014 Odyssey has over 210k miles

I also heard him say the word "tow". He's got a boat or an RV that he also doesn't need. And he's talking about putting a child seat in the "3rd row". Lots of nonsense going on here. It's always stunning to me how people have such a hard time living on $230k.

My thought exactly!

Sadly you're correct. I go to my local thrift shop all the time and see these beautiful table settings that were once someone's great-grandmother's cherished wedding china. Fast forward to today, her descendants write it off as "too ornate."

No, he had several thousand in savings

Austism?

​@@pamsmith1665no, rare vascular disease.

What? That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. There is no possible reason for a kid to have life insurance! If they don't have an income that others rely on, they should not have life insurance. End of story.

@@amireallythatgrumpy6508 it's put in place so that they will have it as adults in case they develop a health condition that would disqualify them from getting life insurance later. It happened to 3 of our kids. Thankfully we had it in place for our kids because now theyre adults. They would not qualify for term life insurance due to their health conditions, or at the least it would be so expensive they couldn't afford it.

​@@amireallythatgrumpy6508what happens if they are uninsurable?

Lmao my thoughts exactly. His debt and income aren't the problem, you had 3 kids as a teenager and now you're 20 with 3 mouths to feed

burial money

Or just buy a pre paid burial account

He doesn’t want to sell it though. Did you not hear that? Also, welcome back Elizabeth! Knew it wouldn’t take you long to be back! 😊

@@flashthecorgi2053 I thought I had to respond to this one because it is an area where someone can make errors that are very expensive and it is an area of expertise for my husband. I hesitated to make a comment because I knew you would be stalking my name - but I felt like I had to warn him to be very careful. Actually, I wasn't listening to the show. My friend was listening and texted me to listen to the final call because she knows about my husband's interest in rare collectible coins and she asked me to comment before Ronnie made a serious mistake. I had to weigh that against knowing you had my name on speed dial and would be there with yet another snarky comment. And, yes, I did hear he doesn't particularly want to sell. However, he should sell when he can because these kinds of collections left to heirs who are not interested and know nothing about them can result in serious financial loss because there are so many charlatans out there.

Jordon can just replace those cards with a mouse click. He is booting up that laptop as we speak

@@pamsmith1665 Comment on wrong thread - I was addressing the last caller with the high-value collectibles. Jordan was a different caller.

No. When asked if he opened more cards he reluctantly said yes. Dave does often jump to worse case scenario without the facts yet

That’s why he’s so effective with his wisdom. Some of the best in his field have had some harrowing experiences of their own!

Yes, Dr. John was in a really bad place 10-12 years ago with clinical anxiety and depression. He talks a lot about it in his book Redefining anxiety AND own your past change your future. Two AMAZING books. His healing journey was what led him into getting the counseling PhD in the first place and now he is the BEST trained counselor and so great at giving life changing wisdom because he’s been there before. ❤️

@@flashthecorgi2053 prefer a book over the other I have credits on audible I can redeem 🥳

@@gabevilla8578OMG yay! Yes, his audiobooks are the best. Own your past change your future is my personal favorite. His voice can be so calming sometimes and other times he’s just a total goofball. I love John’s audiobooks.

His wife is one lucky woman, and his children are blessed to have a father like him!

Is her “tone” really your issue with her? Perhaps you need to rewatch with your unbiased opinion put aside & practice some empathy (putting oneself in someone else’s shoes) instead. Hope I don’t run into anyone of your kind.

​@@nomihaganshe sucks at advice point blank. Nothing to do with skin color. Stop playing the victim mentality

​@nomihagan yes her tone of the attitude of saying that is the only issue I have with her. Her advice is always great, as is johns, daves and all the other co hosts of the show. Just the way she said that comment in that tone was the only issue with her period. I don't know why running into someone like me would just be horrid? That's a issue for yourself because you run into opinionated people like myself and yourself daily and so far I would assume it's not been too bad running into people like "me". As per your comment. I'm a working mom of 3 boys of which one is battling for his life at the age of 19. I don't know how a simple comment on someone's tone makes such a bad person to run into, but whatever you say I suppose? To each Thierry own and have a great day.
