Today, I started reading Dave Ramsey’s Complete Guide to Money. The in-laws were visiting last week, and Madre-in-law bought a copy of this book and Dave’s The Total Money Makeover for us. I first encountered Dave Ramsey because one of my cousins and her hubby took his Financial Peace University class through their church. Basically, Dave Ramsey teaches a practical, faith-based (the Bible) approach to reducing and eliminating debt while building wealth.
Mac and I have talked about getting a firm hold on our finances, but we’ve yet to do so. I consulted my dad for his thoughts on the Dave Ramsey method, and he thought it was a great idea. Unfortunately, the nearest Financial Peace class is in the Raleigh area. Luckily for us, we got the books fo free!
This is definitely not an overnight program and requires a lot of dedication. I think I’m going to blog about each step of our journey to Financial Peace.
Have any of y’all tried FPU? What were your thoughts?
I have heard about this, excited to hear how it works for you. 🙂
