I think he's like a nutritionist who tells people to quit eating junk food, eat vegetables/lean protein/less fat. Of course most people would lose weight on that diet.
The fact that I was raised in a frugal household makes me think most of his advice is obvious (don't buy stuff you can't afford, don't run up credit card debt). For me, a credit card is advantageous for reward points and tracking expenses (and I pay it off in full every month).
For a lot of America (those in debt), he gives good advice.

Right, but vendors pay Ramsey to endorse their veggies. The same veggies can be purchased much cheaper from other vendors, but his followers spend more for his ELP'S veggies, cueing the irony. I deal with this more than anyone on this board, as well as other issues where his message is not right for particular individuals. But his clan is huge here in Nashville, and young people are easily manipulated, especially when he ties religion into his message, also big business here. No, I am not against religion in any way, shape, or form.
Again, the poor bastards that call in and listeners that have tendencies like the callers should follow him note for note.
