- What's up guys, George Camel here and I'm on a mission from Dave Ramsey himself. If you've been listening to The Ramsey Show, you know that we're big on outrageous generosity. We always tell people giving is the most fun you can have with money. So I'm on a mission to spend $10,000 of Dave Ramsey's money in three hours and I thought, what better place to do it than the Americana staple Waffle House. I bet people think I'm a big country musician and we're filming a music video. - Oh, ooh.
Can I sit up here? Yeah. Or should I sit at the kids table? Is this the kids table? Oh, God. It's just me. How are y'all doing today? I'm Guy Fieri. What if I was Guy Fieri's son? How disappointing would that be? What's the best thing on the menu? What do you think? What do you get? I can get you two eggs. Two egg breakfast and bacon. Thank you so much. Oh, that's hitting.
Just a black coffee for me. That's it. That's it. That's how I keep my physique. I just drink black coffee all day long. I got to be on camera all day. I get bloated. It's a tough life for me. What's the coffee run here these days? $2.25. Oh, and price includes sales tax. It does. That's the last semblance of hope for America. It's what we need right now. I got cash. Will you be able to check me out real quick? Yes, sir. OK.
Well, you know what? I'm in the spirit of giving. Can I borrow this knife good, sir? Okay. Does this work? Excuse me, guys. Just want to let you know, on behalf of Ramsey Solutions, we're going to cover your tabs today. Merry Christmas on us. Merry Christmas, sir. We got your tab today. I'll cover your tabs, guys. It's on us today. Merry Christmas. Absolutely. Hey, guys. Quick announcement. I'm here on behalf of Ramsey Solutions, and we're going to cover all your tabs today. Merry Christmas. Hey!
Cheers! Merry Christmas! It's on us. We got you. Thank you. Y'all are eating good out here. Listen, man, it's so fun giving away money. It's the most joy you can ever have. So Merry Christmas to you guys as well. Merry Christmas. Absolutely, man. Thank you. Thanks for being... You came here on a good morning. Okay, so there's my bill. Thank you. $2.25. The total, $3. And you can keep the change on that. Thank you. Do you need a receipt?
Uh, I'm okay. Can I do you a little more? I don't think 75 cents is appropriate as a tip for you. Can I give you $500 as a tip? Is that okay? Yeah. Okay. I hope that blesses you this Christmas with your sweet three-year-old daughter. You were stressing over the bills? Which ones? All of them. All of them? Yeah. Oh my goodness. I just got back from maternity leave, so... Yeah. Yeah.
So you got all the bills plus the daughter and the diapers and the formula?
Yeah. Oh my goodness. I gotta go get more formula today. Wow. Can I just go ahead and give you your tip now? Here's your cap. Here's $500 for you, Brittany. Thank you so much. Thank you. I appreciate that. No one else. Seriously? Well, I feel bad now. Crosby, Merry Christmas, man. Here's $500 on behalf of Ramsey Solutions. Wow. God bless you. What's your name, bro? What's your name?

Man, I got bills. All y'all got bills. Okay, and I can't forget about Shatika. I don't want you to feel left out. You've been a blessing as well. Thank you. So for you, I've got another $500. This is a lot. This is all in $20.
Look how you're bowling out here. Thank you. Merry Christmas. Thank you. I hope it blesses you. Thank you. I've just been going through a lot. I have three kids, and last year I was shot in my chest by my kid daddy. Thank you. And I've just been having a hard time, and I really appreciate it. I do. We'll be praying for you. Are you healing up good? You better now?
And how are the kids doing? They're okay. What's the ages? Seven, two, and three. Wow. What are you doing for Christmas for them? I don't know. Just hanging in here, you know? Hanging in here? You'll be working on Christmas? Yeah. Oh, my goodness. Thank you. Well, how about this? You got all those kids. We need to get them some nice Christmas gifts, don't you think? How about this, Shatika? We got something special just for you. We got an extra $2,000 to give you. Woo!
We heard you've been going through it. We want to bless you with $2,000 extra on top of your $500. Thank you. Get those kids some Christmas gifts. Can I come back there and hug you? You're a warrior. You're a hero. Thank you for what you do every day.
Those kids are so blessed to have you. You know that? Thank you. You know how hard their mama works for them? What she's been through? I hope it's a different Christmas for y'all. Thank you. I really appreciate y'all. Thank you so much. You're amazing. Thank you all so much. God bless you guys. Oh, my goodness.
You guys are incredible. Thank you for what y'all do every day. And Merry Christmas on behalf of Ramsey Solutions. Can I have a hug, Sean? Absolutely. And I love your lipstick. You're keeping it fun and fresh out here. I really appreciate you giving that to my crew, man. They work hard and they deserve it. Absolutely. Look at the smiles they got. I mean, she's got a three-month-old. I know. I got a three-month-old and I'm barely awake.
I love it, man. I thank y'all so much for coming through here. Absolutely. God bless y'all. Merry Christmas, man. Thank you for the knife. I apologize for stealing that from you. Okay, I'll pay my bill now. I got $225. Y'all, you will not believe this. I gave away my last dollar. Can I work this off in the kitchen? No, I got to work this off. Y'all got an extra apron I can throw on? Tie me up. Tie me up. All right, what's next? How do I wash? Who's out here? Are you on wash duty? I think we're a good team. Yeah.
All right. We're doing this thing. Rinse them off. How many before I pay off my coffee? What's it take? Might let you clean the whole store, you know? That's worth $2.25, right? I'll never financially recover from this. I'm still reeling from how amazing that experience was. It was everything I hoped and dreamed for, and I even got a sweater just for the memories. And it was a beautiful reminder that there's only three things you can do with money. You can save it.
You can spend it and you can give it. Now, which do you think is the most fun? You might say spending on first blush, which can be a blast. But the truth is giving is the most fun you'll ever have with money. I mean, how much fun did we just have? Did you see Shatika at the end there? It does not get better than that. And that's why I'm always talking about getting out of debt and getting on a budget, having money in the bank. Because when you create financial margin in your life, giving becomes a whole lot easier financially. You don't have to think about it. You don't have to struggle with it. You can just give when you see an opportunity.
I'm so passionate about this idea, I wrote a whole chapter on generosity in my new book called Breaking Free From Broke. In it, I give you guys so many ideas that will inspire you to give more, whether you have $10 to spare or $10,000 to spare. So friends of the George Campbell channel, I'm going to challenge you. Prioritize giving in your budget.
this month and every month. And maybe you give a little until you can give a lot. Maybe you just give a lot. Regardless, I wanna hear what your plan is. So let me know in the comments how you currently give or how you wanna start giving. Now make sure to share this video with the Grinches in your life whose Grinchy hearts may be three sizes too small. As always, thank you guys for watching. We'll see you next time.
