I was listening to Dave Ramsey earlier today.
Someone called up. She and her husband had combined 500K in debt. They were both attorneys. She was concerned she would never got out of the debt hole.
Now... take a guess as to what she earns as an attorney.
40K a year as a probate attorney. I was floored. Holy moly that's a pathetic salary for 250K in debt.
I believe she lived in Conn. Dave told her starting salary should be between 60-90K. I think she said she(maybe they) graduated in 2012. So at age 30 ... still 500K in debt.
Sad.
