Is Dave Ramsey correct? Anyone still around after 10 years?

[Wade Kulesa]

I've been on the Dave Ramsey bandwagon for the last several years. His advice definitely worked to get us out of debt and allow us to save a pile of cash. But as I look to get more into real estate investing, there's basically 2 schools of thought; use debt and finance everything or pay cash. While I feel I'd be fairly comfortable financing (assuming the numbers work), one thing from Ramsey is still ringing in my head. He says there are no real estate investors that borrow money to do so that are still around 10 years after they begin their journey. My plan is to do this for at least the next 10 years, so the main question is this: is dave ramsey correct? How many investors on here would disagree with his assumption and if so, why? Open to all views. Thanks in advance for your input.
