A Redditor shared on the social media platform earlier this year how he got out of heavy debt and financial troubles by following the advice of American personal finance author and radio host Dave Ramsey.
In 2013, the poster had $23,000 in credit card debt and owed $123,000 on his mortgage. He was making about $60,000 annually from his small business, but could not "put my hands on $200 cash." Today, he's debt-free with around $80,000 in cash, and both his house and car are paid off.
