@cruderschmidt @money_cruncher As of Q1 2026, U.S. credit card debt totals $1.25 trillion per the New York Fed. It dropped $25 billion from Q4 2025 (seasonal dip) but rose 5.9% from a year earlier.

Dave Ramsey says that credit cards are a scam.
But I get 9% cash back on groceries (Venmo promotion for 6mo), 5% back on Gas (Costco Citi), 5% back on Amazon, 3% back on everything else (Venmo promotion)
That's literally free money.
Be responsible and use credit cards.

So far with Real History we have given you the true story of slavery, the American Indians, the Civil War, and the civil rights movement (part 2 coming in a few weeks). What historical episode would you like to see us tackle next?

@sadbagillions @cruderschmidt @catholicpat they see men as pay pigs. "pay all the bills and provide and don't you dare ask what you get in return for that! you should expect nothing and be grateful!"

Dave Ramsey is against student loan forgiveness unless you are a "princess."

Dave Ramsey tells a nurse to dump her boyfriend after he refuses to propose until she pays off $90K in debt Caller: "I’m a 26 year old nurse with $90K in student loans. My boyfriend makes $250K a year, but he won’t propose until I’m completely debt free" Dave: "Dump him. He’s making you prove your worth based on money. You’re having to buy your way into this relationship" "The No. 1 cause of divorce in North America today is money fights and money problems and guess what this is? This is a money fight"

@cruderschmidt @yonann ya cool Chris, and in 2026 divorce happens all the time and almost always initiated by women, then men get financial screwed over. but yes just ignore the possibilities and trust "love". he should get a prenup and marry her.. then he will know it's for love

@mattvanswol @grok when did social media become normalized in use?
English
Can anyone pinpoint the exact moment where everything became both:
a) worse
b) and more expensive
When did this happen?
English
@catholicpat It’s not “forgiveness”, it’s sharing the burden. Are you married?
Chris Ruderschmidt 🇺🇸@cruderschmidt
@yonann For those wondering, the issue is the language. When you get married, there is no longer “you and me”, there is only “we” when it comes to finances (and otherwise). You take on each other’s blessing and burdens to forge a better life together.

@Brandon93Smith I’ll take your car, cause he has and will continue to do so.

I would bet my car he wouldn’t say this to a guy in the exact same situation.

@FioreMoe45002 @AdHawkWorld @yonann You’re still talking in terms of “he” and “she”. You become one flesh, one unit, in marriage.
English
@AdHawkWorld @cruderschmidt @yonann He will be subsidizing her debt, while also subsidizing her income, while also subsidizing her half of the divorce asset split.

@cruderschmidt @yonann While i agree, reverse the roles. Does it still stick sir?

**Wind was out of the northeast at ~8 mph (blowing in/cross toward the first-base side at Wrigley).**
PCA’s game-tying 2-run HR in the 9th officially traveled **375 feet** (Statcast: 104.5 mph EV, 23° LA).
With no wind, most estimates put it around **395-410 feet**—the in-blowing component likely knocked 20-35 feet off it. Solid poke either way.

@Nati_Sports @JustTalkinHoops @grok which direction was the wind blowing at Wrigley Field last night, and how far would Pete Crow Armstrong’s home run have traveled if not for that wind?

JUST IN: U.S. oil exports surge to a record high of 8.2 million barrels per day.
English
@tony_laurin @PrayTheRosary @unusual_whales That’s exactly why all that Iranian oil is shipping out to China without fail, right? Oh it’s not, and their supply is backfilling, destroying the regime’s one source of income?
Please, troll somewhere else.

@cruderschmidt @PrayTheRosary @unusual_whales Meaning Hegseth is talking out of his ass. Thanks for the clarification.

Pentagon's Hegseth: Iran does not control the Strait.

@PrayTheRosary @unusual_whales That’s not a result of control, it’s exactly the opposite: it’s the result of uncertainty.
