Today, Dave Ramsey has some advice for you, especially if you're having some financial difficulties.

Guys, you need to step up. She needs an extra three to six non-sexual hugs a day.

Some of you guys need to look up non-sexual.

Well, now that's relationship advice, and it's coming from a financial expert, and that

the best first lady that we've ever had, his wife Barbara. And they were campaigning their way across Texas in one of the presidential campaigns.
