Man with ADHD told to keep working... despite inheriting $4.1 MILLION.
Caller: "My father passed away this year and left my mother and me a substantial amount of money."
"He left us $12 million."
"I received $4.1 million in cash, and the rest went to my mother."
"Right now, the $4.1 million is sitting in a money market account earning 4.59%."
"I'm making about $14,000 to $16,000 a month just in interest."
"My question is... I want to buy a house, and I don't know how much I should spend."
Dave Ramsey: "How much do you make a year?"
Caller: "Well... right now I'm not working."
Dave Ramsey: "Why?"
Caller:
"I have a hard time with work. It's hard for me to keep a job. I have ADHD."
"I also feel like I haven't found my calling yet."
"Believe it or not, I'm 38."
Dave Ramsey: "If this money allows you to not deal with your ADHD and your career issues, this money has become a curse, not a blessing."
"You've got to deal with those things for your own sake and for your own dignity."
"Becoming a trust fund baby and saying, 'I couldn't work because of ADHD,' is not going to be good for your mental health long term."
"I'd prefer you pretend this money doesn't exist and go earn a living, sir. I think you'll feel better."
