MAKING TOUGH FAMILY DECISIONS, USING MONEY WISELY, AND STAYING OUT OF DEBT

On this episode of The Ramsey Show, hosts Jade Warshaw and Ken Coleman take on real-life financial and family issues that require both wisdom and practical solutions. One caller wonders if using sinking funds to cover expenses is just another way of living in debt. Jade helps break down the truth about budgeting with discipline and purpose. Another listener asks for advice on how to handle a family arrangement that’s gone south—an in-law suite built onto their home that no longer feels right. Jade and Ken walk through how to make a respectful, yet firm, transition. The hosts also answer a question about honoring a grandmother’s wishes regarding an inheritance. They stress the importance of integrity while drawing clear lines on what is legally and morally expected. Finally, a couple asks whether they should stop paying off debt to buy an RV. The answer is rooted in common sense and financial responsibility: don’t trade short-term pleasure for long-term freedom. With bold truth and steady guidance, Jade and Ken remind listeners that managing money well also means making strong decisions for your future and your family. Every dollar has a job, and every decision matters. This episode helps listeners move forward with clarity and confidence.
