From the Ramsey Network in the FAIRWINDS Credit Union Studio, this is The Ramsey Show. I'm Dave Ramsey. George Kamel, Ramsey Personality, number one bestselling author and co-host of Smart Money Happy Hour, is my co-host today. The phone number is 888-825-5225. The call is free, and some say the advice is worth exactly what you pay for it. Brenna is with us in Las Vegas. Hi, Brenna. How are you?

Sure. What's up?

I have a question for you. It's in regards to whether my husband and I should be working harder, looking at debt, and how to deal with contentment and mom guilt at not being able to give my kids everything that I think they deserve. Um, to give some back story, we're on Baby Step 4, 5, 6. We have two emergency funds. We have no debt. My husband and I both work part-time, so we get to spend lots of time with our kids, um, that we easily pay all of our bills. I feel like our budget is comfortable. We don't pinch pennies, but we're careful with our money. Um, my son is becoming school-aged.
