100grand? I'd have to take out a loan on the house, it's paid for but I'd do it if I have to do it.
10 grand would be pushing it. The roof, furnace and new (used) car took a hit on savings.

If you're spending $5 a bottle for Smart Water -- it isn't working. Exactly right. Best line on this.

Just remember this. Think about how dumb the average person is. And then consider that half the people are dumber then that person. And there's your answer. That is sig line material right there.... Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize that half of them are stupider than that. ~ George Carlin

When he got back he said he had seen so many liver spotted tits that he would never be able to get it up again. Be cheaper than a 5th wheel.

I didn't hear Charles Paynes talk but I'd say that it's closer to 44% couldn't come up with $400 in an emergency. My guess is the percentage of folks who couldn't reach $1000 is far higher.
All I can say is God bless Dave Ramsey. He's changing peoples attitude toward debt in a good way.
To answer the question Yes, easily.

The original statistic is from a Fed reserve release in 2018. It was 39% and $400.

Yeah.
But what makes me proud is that my two oldest daughters (19 and 24 yo) that are out on their own could as well.

If a $1000 will fix it, it ain't really an emergency. Or you can fix it yourself for 50 bucks.

I’m curious why it’s anyones business. If I want to be broke and have tv and watch foosball, that what I’ll do.
As long as they’re not mooching off the tax payers, mind your own damn business.

It's really sad when you think about it. I don't have a $1k in my wallet at the moment.

If a $1000 will fix it, it ain't really an emergency. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tell me that again after lightning fries your water pump or your fridge/freezer conks out. That’s home maintenance; not an emergency. Happens all the time. Be prepared for it. Yeah, be prepared for lightning strikes and any other natural disasters that might arise. Such things are not emergencies. LOL I’m just telling you what I do. I drive what I can pay for. I live in what I can pay for. When it breaks, I fix or replace it. It isn’t a big deal if you aren’t making payments. I'd be willing to bet that the vast majority of people would consider those things emergencies. . Probably so. I don’t know. Are you in the “vast majority”? If so, you are a dumbass

It's really sad when you think about it. I don't have a $1k in my wallet at the moment. It is sad. Good habits are hard. We should teach our kids math life skills in school. They learn to graph a line. Who tf ever graphs a line. You use money every day. Teach them those skills.

Only 44% of Americans can. Just saw that on Charles Payne and thought wow. Over half of Americans would have to charge it on a credit card, borrow from a family member or take out a loan for $1000. Wow wtf
