417-Friday Q&A: Should I Follow Dave Ram...

JOSHUA SHEATS
About this episode

On Fridays I host a live Q&A show! This show is open for Patrons to call in and talk with me about anything they want to.

If you'd like to participate in this call, become a Patron! www.radicalpersonalfinance.com/patron

Today we tackle two questions:

  1. Should I Follow Dave Ramsey's Baby Steps and Pay off My House Early?
  2. I Had an Unexpected Child...Should I Finish Graduate School or Drop Out to Be a Mom?

Enjoy!

Joshua
