No he would probably prefer something where "The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass"...

I don't think she is being a hater. It's more that she loves people who are suffering. People who have worked hard all their lives and are facing problems. Not just in the USA but in other countries too, where they are even harder up and work yet harder. Logically it is hard to see the point why one man could need such a big house. He would not get much value from it. This is just a fact. He seems to care too much about himself, or thinks he is worth this much. No man is worth this much while hard working people still suffer in the world. He's nuts basically, as he would never even get use from it, that's the worse part.

You compare with someone you obviously dislike a ton, Obama. Which is what I think this comment is really about. But comparing with someone bad, does not make a person good. You could create jobs by digging a hole. All this for one greedy man - it may as well be a hole!

In my fathers house there are many mansions. Give and God gives back. God has blessed Dave.

I think Dave is a hypocrite, he sits there on his high horse giving people advice on how to spend thier money and how to live thier lives. I guarantee If someone called him and asks if they should buy a house that big for cash in this market, knowing how expensive the taxes, utilities, maintenance are going to be each month and every year forever he would tell them it is a waist to buy something so over the top. He got super rich by telling people to be conservative and buy what they need not what they want, unbelievable people don't see right through this guy.

When you make that kind of money and his net worth let's see how much you donate to charity. Mind your own business.

Do you give more away than you keep for yourself? That would mean that if you make 30k you are giving away at least 15k... My guess is no, but I'm just guessing...

I don't want to judge Dave since I do not know him personally. A barb I sling via a blog will not have any effect at all. Dave should hear such things from those closest to him. For those of you, however, who follow Dave closely, does the "live like no one else" mantra smack of materialism to you? Should that be my goal? By the way, we all "live like no one else" when we are compared to the living standards of the world. Is there a need to have more? I would say that you should live with what you need and give the rest away so others can live better.

He references the book Millionaire Next Door in his seminars. I think he missed the point of the book.

Don't forget it's not really his(Dave Ramsey's) money, it's His(the Lord's) money. He's been a good steward, but I think this should be a reality check that even the best stewards of His money always have room to improve. He doesn't have to live in a hole, but he passed modesty by a long shot.

I can't find the numbers, but doesnt Dave give a lot of money away every year? I don't think he should give away 100% of his wealth, even if he did it wouldnt make a dent in the problems in our country.

Also, if nothing else, "Live like no one else, so later you can LIVE like no one else."

Never once have I ever heard Dave Ramsey suggest someone not pay their credit card balances. Not once. When you make ridiculous statements like that you really should source them but I'm 100% positive you wouldn't find anything. Fun fact: Did you know that years ago (over 20) Dave Ramsey was forced to file bankruptcy on all his properties which is when he went broke? I bet you didn't know that after he filed bankruptcy and began to make a comeback financially, he paid back all of the people he owed money to previously even though he had no legal obligation to do so. Dave Ramsey is not telling people to ignore their obligations, in fact, as someone who has listened to his radio show, taken Financial Peace University, and read most of his books I can assure you, your statement is 100% false.

If you think $10 is a waste of money to turn your financial habits around then I feel for you. I have seen The Total Money Makeover change lives!

If Dave didn't have the charisma to continue his radio show wouldn't have lasted all these years. It's most likely because Fox's credit card advertisers threatened to pull the plug on their ads not to mention that sometimes things just don't work out. I'm sure Dave Ramsey isn't affected that much at all. On to the next thing...

Actually, you missed a Qdoba location. There are presently four in the Nashville area with Coolsprings being the fifth. There's a location in Hermitage.

you really have no idea about the process of manufacturing in third-world countries. first of all, nothing that is consumed in the US, or in most countries in the world for that matter, is made in North Korea. absolutely nothing. it's basically a post-industrial wasteland run by a dictator who has lost his mind and all concern for the well-being of its inhabitants. secondly, working conditions in chinese and south korean (i'm guessing that is what you meant) manufacturing plants are horrendous. the laborers are not "grateful" to anyone for having more work to do, because they make less than the equivalent of a dollar an hour, regardless of whether they have a few hundred extra bathroom fixtures to make or not.

also, saying that someone's house is wasteful and overly extravagant does not qualify as envy. especially when it really is wasteful and overly extravagant.

His net worth would have to be in the hundreds of millions for a house like that. It wouldn't be hard to believe he's worth that.

Scott — Mon, 05 Sep 2011 21:00:10 -0000

Good Lord Melissa; you sound like a flaming liberal with your envirofreak statement of "18 shower heads, that is ridiculous." You can be damned sure Ramsey donates to charities. I would be stunned to find otherwise. Just because he doesn't make public announcements doesn't mean he's not making donations.

If he did indeed pay cash for everything when building that house then that would be a real inspiration especially considering how big the house is.

And his net worth must be >$500 million to afford a house like that.

Kudos to Ramsey.

I love Franklin/Cool Springs, but we could really use another decent furniture store. Spritz is really the only other nice one and it's filled with a LOT of leather furniture. Too bad I already have leather furniture. Ethan Allen is a bit boring, Haverty's is okay... Could anyone please suggest some really nice furniture stores around here, or about an hour's drive. Thank you all so much!

Re: Vanderbilt Audiologist Measures Cicadas Sound Level

Grannadeb — Sat, 20 Aug 2011 14:06:27 -0000

Just wondering, as I have not been able to remember specifics or find references to this phenomena. Many years ago, I was told that if you count by the one one-thousand, two one-thousand....method for the length of a particular cicada "song" and then multiply that by a certain number (which I have unfortunately forgotten), you can get a fairly good idea of how hot the temperature is outside (in degrees F) similar to the method used to determine how far away a thunderstorm is. Has anyone ever heard of this? And if so, what was the number to multiply by? I want to be able to impress my grandkids. Thanks.
