This video features Dave Ramsey discussing the challenges facing men today, focusing on their roles in work, life, family, and finances. He argues that a devaluation of men in society has led to significant economic and social consequences.
According to Dave Ramsey, approximately 7.2 million able-bodied men are not engaged in the workforce.
Ramsey states that the negative portrayal of fathers in media as idiots or buffoons diminishes their perceived value and contributes to a lack of engagement in the workforce and family life. This impacts their children, particularly daughters, who may develop lower self-esteem and make poor life choices.
Ramsey's data indicates that 83% of men with a net worth of $1 million or $2 million have a supportive spouse who works as a teammate.
Ramsey emphasizes the crucial role of shared goals and a willingness to make necessary sacrifices between spouses. He illustrates this with his own story, showing how his wife's support and shared vision were essential in overcoming financial challenges and achieving success. Their alignment on the "price to be paid" to achieve their desired future was key.
