Single dad here that has had court battle after court battle for kids. This spring I finished off my last credit card and paid a lump 2200 for a final payment. It too me 7 years to pay off over 22,000 because I paid close to 30,000 in legal fees (in addition to the 22k) to fight for the kids. I still owe family and my original FPU teacher says I'm not actually debt free to do the scream. Although I agree with him and am paying family back, I've paid back over 8,000 to them and have a little over 1,000 left of family debt. Not sure this counts and quite frankly after hearing the screening process it sounds like he wouldn't even care to let me do a scream. I'll just post it here and call it good. I'M DEBT FREE! I'M SOOO EXCITED, IM DEBT FREE! I drive a pos car but it runs just fine and paid for! Saving for a new one. I'm just so thankful for FPU, I know I wouldn't have had the money to not only pay off all debt but I did it while having and paying cash for court battle after court battle. The amount I owe is for before FPU. The REALLY expensive battles I paid cash for. I had the cash because I was actually saving to pay family for before FPU battles and for a car. I'm just very excited, I owe my aunt a little left from before fpu, all other family I have paid back, all credit cards are paid to 0 and not uses anymore, all cars owned, all continuing legal fees are paid cash. Thanks all if you read this far for hearing my debt free scream!

I wish they had recorded the first woman that screamed on the phone.

Just got off the phone from doing our scream. Pretty surreal.

I found Dave quite accidentally, back when he was on tv. It was the debt-free screams that got me on board. I wanted THAT. We're on BS4+ now, mortgage should be knocked out in 5 or so more years (about 10 years early, we'll be in our mid-forties). Even now, with the dead weight of a mortgage around our necks, life is soo much better. So much less stress, so much more stability in our lives!

I will call one day and scream im debt free 😄

There are so many debt free screams now. I remember listening to the show 15 years ago and it was a fairly rare thing. Now they happen all the time.

Such a legacy Dave! This is awesome. Looking forward to starting my debt free journey and I will be practicing my debt free scream!

Haha!!!! That's awesome! The machine gun lady and the country dude! Love it!

I always wondered how it started.

I did it dave!!🎉i ‘ve just paid my car loan , listen to your advise i’m feeling capable to do everything !! Just thank you

Dave we need to hear that first scream!! No recording?

My day will come.

I love this 💙. I watch at least once a week for motivation. Can't wait until I can scream 'I'M DEBT FREE'

I love the debt free screams of people, I feel their energy and the hair on my body stands up. It motivates me everyday! , keep it up Ramsey Solutions, Love the team and energy you guys produce for everyone.

I lost it when he said "and she hung up."

The debt free scream why I watch it: to affirm myself, there is always hope. The people who do the debt free scream are the everyday heroes.

Brian from Korn, that is legit lol

I Love his imitation of the fax machine!!! LOL

I love it! Love the background stories of debt free screams, thank for tell us the story Dave.

Awesome...love the show and the much needed advice..Happy Anniversary!!!

Thank you for sharing the story. Loved your accents. Thank you for preparing a place for people to celebrate 🎉

I remember my grandparents had Fox Business on their cable at their house. I would watch Dave Ramsey's show whenever we visited.

The four people who dislike this video (or Dave himself) must love being miserable and in debt up to their eyeballs.

Holy cow. Korn is one of my fav bands. That’s awesome. Makes me like korn even more

Aw man it’d be great if that same lady calls backkkk!!!!!!!!! Pleaseeeee

We are working with gazelle intensity and will be doing a debt free scream here in Alabama, we will no have to travel to see you, you will hear us from there!! I am so excited, I can’t thank you enough because, it never occurred to me that I could actually do this!!

The camera shot with headset on was so cute!

Debt Free scream keeps me going

My son is 6 and wants to come in to say he's never going into debt!

This is amazing

I always wondered how that started.

Lol this is awesome

I will call the day I pay off my debt December ...... Just remember 😡

This is sooooooo inspiring. I will do mines as well in the near future.

Wonder if you'll still be on the air when it's the 50th Anniversary Dave 🙂

"Pay a price to win"

I only watch his shows, because I love how he berates people.

I wish that women comes forward

Hi everybody. I’m 21 years old and don’t have any debt, no obligations and not much money either since I’m in college. I’m looking for a recommendation for a book. I don’t think I need a “money makeover” since I don’t have any debt to fix but I want to start right for when I have money. I’m from Spain too so if possible not a book too US focused. I would love if any of you could help me. Thank you!!

KORN!!!!

One day 🤞🏿

Head!!

Does anyone know where Blake's mom Martha is?

KoRn!!! :D
