   Hey Dave,

   Been a few months since I have been back. I see you have been busy. I am lucky if I find the time to do 3 posts per month. How did the whole Dave Ramsey People thing turn out? I see you still have your domain.

   I like your point in the article. The main thing that I hear with my clients is the struggle between paying debt, saving for retirement and saving for the kids college fund. Essentially the same logic applies. You have to get out of debt and focus on properly funding retirement. Only then can you look at helping your kids fund college. If you can do it then great, but if you can’t, then they will have to either get loans, or get a job to get through school.

   A lot of parents struggle with that, and they want to give everything to their kids, but what they don’t realize, is that if they don’t fund their retirements, they will very likely be a large burden on their kids, just at the time they are starting their working careers and families because mom and dad will need a hand out to live.

     Thanks Damon… its hard work sometimes but I do enjoy it. Set a schedule you’re comfortable with (aka pace yourself) and let it ride. It’ll work out.

     I’ve not heard from Ramsey’s folks since October. We were exchanging friendly emails for a while and I sent them a proposal with options including me keeping, retiring, or surrendering the domain and I’ve actually not heard back from them since. I suppose one day they’ll pick up the discussion but I’ll hold tight until then. I don’t think I’m butchering his theme so I’m not likely a hard target.

     Good luck to you!
     Dave
