Dave Ramsey calls it being a gazelle

I am trying to be the gazelle. The kind of gazelle that runs as fast as they can away from the chetah. No, I am not crazy. Well, maybe a little but what I am taking about is the way we should be reacting towards debt. We should try to pay our debts as quickly as possible and never get ourselves into debt again. I believe this will all my heart and mind. This is why I have been working so hard. I don't want to be a slave to debt for the rest of my life. I want to change my family tree and teach my kids that you can survive without going into debt.
