Whether it’s work pressures, financial wor ries, or normal family and personal issues, it seems there’s always something that adds anxiety to our lives. One unfortunate side effect of all this stress is that sometimes we can reach a point where all it takes is a small incident to unleash an outpour ing of rage and anger. This is never a good thing. When someone isn’t able to manage and con trol their anger, the out come is usually negative for both professional and personal relationships. Experts say anger is the most poorly-managed emotion in our society. It’s estimated that one in five Americans have an anger control problem. Is out of control anger, a sudden explosion of emotion and possibly ac tion, a problem you may face? It isn’t difficult to judge if unchecked anger might be an issue. Do you have frequent arguments with others? During an argument have you ever found yourself shouting? Have you broken something; pushed, slapped or physically hurt someone; embarrassed yourself or felt out of control? If any of these apply, consider some actions you can take to better control your anger: - Start by accepting responsibility for your anger. Although some one or something else may have triggered your outburst, you are the one who lets it happen and grow out of control. - Recognize the be ginning signs of your rage. Anger is easier to see Corner, page 3C a 3 A a l 3 N y 3 y 1 3 H N V O 1 a 3 s 1 3 3 N ■ 3 1 V N A n A ° i 3 S >1 a 1 O y 3 1 V d 3 3 rl V N a X o s 3 S I IAI 3 N O l__d__3 IA i__nja O N 1 o >1 N OI13QV v i n a 3 n 3 y 1 3 ^i__o N I V I A H 1 V N O I V 9 I 3 3 H s a o H i N \s 1 N V y V 1 1 3 0 d 0 a 3 y b 1 i >1 a a V O i ' N V i s O a V i V N i i M i V y V d y V 3 V Dave Says (Here’s why) Dear Dave, I’ve heard lots of different theories and recommendations when it comes to paying off debt. Why do you advise paying off debts from smallest to largest? Marlee Dear Marlee, A lot of people wonder the same thing when I bring up the debt snowball. Some think paying off the debt with highest interest rate first is the best approach. This may seem to make sense mathemat ically, but I realized a long time ago debt is not a mathemat ics prob lem—it’s a behav ior problem. Personal finance is 80 percent behavior, and only 20 percent head knowledge. Besides, if all those people were so great at math, they wouldn’t be up to their eyeballs in debt in the first place! The reason the debt snowball pays off debt from smallest to largest is that modifying your behavior and providing inspiration to get out of debt is more important than the math. Your probability of becoming wealthy is more closely connected to your be havior than your finan cial “sophistication” or academic pedigree. When you pay off a small debt you experi ence success, and that gives you hope. Then, you move on the next debt. When you pay that one off, and you’ve wiped out two debts, it really energizes you. At that point you start to get excited, and you begin to believe in yourself and in the fact you’re actual ly on the road to becom ing debt-free! — Dave (It’s not easy money) Dear Dave, I’m 35, and I’ve always wanted to own rental property. I think I’ve found a deal that would work for me. I want to take $20,000 out of my thrift savings ac count to use as a down payment on the property. I could rent the place for $1,400 a month, and my loan payment would be $1,100 a month. What do you think about this idea? Nathan Dear Nathan, I love real estate, so I understand the allure. But what you’re telling me is you want to cash out part of your retire ment, get hit with a penalty and take on debt, to buy an investment property. I wouldn’t do it. I’ve got a feeling you’ve never been a landlord before. Bring- See Dave, page 3C Dave Ramsey Happy Birthday To: October 10: Mac Amburn, Tyler Pearlman, Vicky Ivey, Anne Joiner.
