Anybody that has half a brain can see thru his bulls@&$. Telling people how to get out of debt and then pushing his term life, elp's, financial peace crap and all the other trinkets, all in gods name.
On the car subject, poor , broke people certainly don't need a new car, nor do they need a one or two year old car. But, they do need a good dependable vehicle to get to work so they can pay there bills. Dave is telling people to sell there $4-$5000 dollar car (that works perfectly fine) and buy a $1000 dollar car, that they have no history or other info on. Really, unless a relative is selling this to you, this is very bad advise, unless on of his ELP's is cashing in on the deal.
The guy pushes mutual funds ( I have a few but only indexes) thru his ELP (of course) but never mentions an index fund. Why? Because he can't cash in on it. The guys a tool!
He never says this...... ever.
He says to sell your $40k car that you can't afford and buy something that you can pay cash for and eliminate the debt. Do some of you actually listen to his show?
Yes he did! Marc and niam, are you fans of Carleton sheets, Robert kiyosocki,tony Robbins? Or maybe Joel olsteen? They all have said at least one thing or another that made sense. But they are still wolfs in sheep clothing.

I agree, he tells them that too! Good advice. But, I have heard him tell the sheep me to sell there $5k car! Maybe you missed that infomercial.

Concentrate on what is being said, not on who is saying it. Don't get lost in personalities. Stay focused and do the right thing. And the right thing, according to Dave is: PAY CASH. Don't get yourself in debt by buying things with credit. SAVE CASH. Get wealthy by saving, hard work, discipline, and focused and directed effort. BE RATIONAL.
That's what Dave advocates. Do that. Be a successful and an effective human.
I have never bought a new car in my life. Unless you regularly make over $500,000 a year you cant afford it.

Not really.. Because when you factor in depreciation, who CAN afford a new car? It's never been any big secret that cars depreciate, has it? Can YOU afford to lose money? I personally try to avoid that, but that's just me.

Cause that new car smell costs $10,000 as soon as it hits the curb
Yep - might as well flush that money down the toilet.

And buy my books, tapes, games, etc etc. or did you forget that? He does want the callers to buy that stuff doesn't he? So, are you a fan of those other snake oil salesman?
