Beans And Rice, Rice And Beans

I feel sorry for nationally known financial advisor Dave Ramsey, I really do.

I love the guy. LOVE. I think he can be credited for getting more regular folks on track with their finances than maybe anyone out there.

But here’s the deal: He regularly advises those who are serious about getting out of debt to get “gazelle intense,” to start delivering pizzas in the evenings for extra money, and to go on a diet of “beans and rice, and rice and beans.”

Hello! Word is that the economy’s gotten so stinkin’ bad that Americans will be spending their so-called stimulus checks not on something exciting like electronic gadgets or Alaskan cruises, but on gasoline and FOOD.

It’s just that the food they buy might not be beans and rice, if stores keep up the trend of rationing these supplies. The food purchased with a stimulus check might not be flour, oil, or corn, either. And if you think you can rely on your old cheap standby for great protein—eggs—check that price tag!

So I’m proposing that Dave change his motto to “Rib-Eye and Cheesecake, Cheesecake and Ribeye.” If we’re all going to the Poorer House anyway, why not go in culinary style?

Now, THAT’S a stimulating financial plan!

Buy a chicken and you shall never go hungry...well, you won't go hungry until your chicken gets old and stops laying eggs.
