pick up ken's new book pre-order both there we go uh crystals with us in new york hi crystal welcome to the ramsey show hi thank you thank you so much for taking my call how are you better than i deserve how can we help i really need your advice um to give you a little background i have a full-time job and i take care of a sibling that has mental disabilities now last year i started my llc because i wanted to supplement my income while working at home now so far i spent close to ten thousand dollars on my llc and i haven't made any money yet i put off creating my website because i had to save four thousand dollars to have it created because i'm not tech savvy you don't need four thousand dollars to create a website you can use wix and do it for free i mean there's no need to go spend all this money on this business that has no revenue so far but continue okay um now because i am i am very bad with budgeting money as you probably already know but now the icing on the cake is i have a medical condition that's going to need long-term care so when i reached out to different insurance companies the underwriters they don't want to touch it so my question is should i continue to pursue my small business or take that money and put it in a banking account for my long-term care that i know i'm going to eventually need okay uh how long from now do you think you're going to be needing long-term care um the doctors are unsure because they don't know why i have my condition 25 years or 25 months oh i'm sorry what happened 25 years or 25 months um it could be five five years okay all right so you got a little some time this is not imminent then okay um well i i think the answer is if the LLC is making money it's going to make you more money than bank account will make but so far it's not done anything but take money so we've got to get it making money or we can't depend on it right right what is it what is your side gig what are you trying to build here voiceover voice over yes okay all right and you've done that kind of work before oh no um i've always wanted to do something with my voice but never knew how to go about doing it and the last you took a took a class in the in the summertime and really enjoyed it loved it what did you spend the ten thousand dollars on oh the actual course which is like six thousand dollars where they train you and then um creating my actual LLC i had a company do it for me because they walk walk me through it step by step and then turning my bedroom into the actual studio i had to soundproof it and do you have the equipment to do the work now yes yes i do and why do you not have customers did they teach you how to get customers well i have to do the website first you have to have a website to get customers yes because i have to put the demos on the website to um send it to the client so they can hear me on the website well you could send that over email if you knew the people to contact just send them an mp3 yeah oh right now you need to know the right people i don't think the website is the thing holding you back yeah okay i need you to go get a whole bunch of customers and george is right you can put up a real basic website for almost nothing or nothing okay and you're after talking to you for a few minutes you're smart enough to do it well what's the name of the site you would recommend george again wix wix is a popular one i've used one called square space again all of these you know you're talking zero to a hundred dollars not four grand and truly you can do it yourself yeah i could teach my mom how to use wix wix and we're not endorsing either one of those it's giving you some ideas that this is it's a lot of cut and pace because you're not really trying to create a complicated piece of programming here you're making a business card you just need an electronic business card where you've got some of your demos up there or somebody can push play and play an audio file that's all we're looking for and then of course you're gonna you're gonna deliver most of your stuff by email yes okay so you can deliver demos by email if you got demos laid down in your computer yes okay yes all right so what what i need you to do is i need you go find like a whole bunch of customers in the next 30 days ready set go okay i want you to be overwhelmed because you have so much work you can't breathe and you're a little bit you're a little bit frazzled because there's too much coming at you i want you to get that many customers got you because that's the weak spot in what you're talking about so far all you've done is pay other people for this dream yeah now it's time for you to get paid for the stream and go find people who are doing it and maybe they pass off the ones they don't have time for yeah you get your start that way okay but what do you do full time i'm a correction officer okay how much do you make doing that um my take on is 4,300 a month okay good well the the the voice world has dramatically changed like everything else with a microphone um in the last 20 years because of the digital space that we're in and so i mean it used to be that you had to be a proven product to be able to sit in front of a microphone and now if you want to be a podcaster you can be by the end of the day you know now ai can do voice over yeah and so you gotta compete with that and it used to be that we would mail the the sounders for the radio station to the voice guy and he would send the tape through the mail and we would load the tape we're a long way from that this is a very easy business to get into now and i want you to go get into it big time in the next 30 days ready set go that puts us out of the ramsey show in the books

So you got to have a little celebration after tax season. I'm glad for where I am a new book on gratitude for your kiddos and Lauren did a great job with these.

So when I was writing I was like how do you teach it because graduate contentment gratitude generosity or like three principles that are really important for me to teach my kids and just kind of that that emotional side of money. And when you think about gratitude with kids I'm like you know of course like saying thank you and manners like all of that is important. But for these little ones I'm like when you can start to grasp the things that that can't be taken away from you. You know this idea of like the love of your family your home not just your house but the home the environment when you can start there and that be the foundation at which they learn gratitude I think a sweet so the little animals they go on an adventure to learn that really where they belong is where they where they were and God specifically has put them in a place for a certain time and the more grateful you are the more your heart grows is the last is the last little sentence of the book but it's really sweet. It's a great one.

It'll be fun. It comes out a week from now and you're going to do a little book tour with it right.

So at seven o'clock I'll do a big reading. My kids will be there and all of it. So you can get that link if you pre-order. And so you can go to RachelCruise.com for that.
