The book talks a lot about people getting out of debt but anyone looking to become more financially stable or just some motivation to save up for nice things and your future this book is good to go. Also it informs you of some tricks and techniques that are extremely valuable on saving massive amounts of money on buying cars. Advice i wish i had about a year before picking this book up but still helps to know now.

I had never heard of Dave Ramsey until my husband stumbled on his program on Fox Business. Even though we own our home, pay our credit cards off each month and only have one car payment, something about his book made me want to read it. I had questions like how can you rent a car, stay at a motel, etc and not use a credit card. Dave answers that in the book. It is such an easy book to read...almost like Dave is talking to you. It is a great book. We plan on getting our car paid off, and never financing another one. We're also going to stop using our credit cards and use Dave's method. When I bought the book I wasn't sure if it would apply to our age group but it definitely does. This book should be mandatory reading at the college level if not high school. The amount of money you can save over the years by not financing a car is astonomical. This book is well worth the money!

Dave Ramsey brings such practical wisdom that anyone can apply his principles and revolutionize their lives, by "living like no one else". As a financial advisor I endorse 90+% of what Dave discusses. The only place I would like to learn more of his thoughts is on funding retirement at age say 55 and beyond. The book is not real clear and if I understood him correctly it is too risky/volitile for most people. Don't let that stop you though! This is the best overall personal finance book I've read, especailly for it's size and with the average American drowning in debt!

I bought this book for my father. He bought the book for me a few months ago, and I wanted to return the favor. If you aren't familiar with Dave Ramsey and his truthful, no nonsense, logic based approach to financial matters, I would highly recommend you read this. It exposes common myths and will certainly hit a few "sore spots" that will make you think twice about what's important and having self control. It's a very inspirational and challenging book. The book is easy to read and follow. Highly recommended, no matter your age.

This book reveals the truth about debt and helps you devise a plan of attack for eliminating that debt and beginnning a whole new life for you and your family. It points out the need to "pay the piper" when we have been used to charging our cares away. This book has sound advice as well as countless testimonials that provide motivation and inspiration as you go through your total money makeover.

This is a fantastic, easy to read book that I feel has transformed the way I look at life-at the very least my finances. I read the book in one evening, and have already implimented Dave's practices. Dave makes even the non-believer realize there is light at the end of the tunnel. You do not have to be crazed with crunching numbers- which for me was a positive! I only wish I had heard about this book years ago!

This book is amazing! Dave takes you though some amazingly easy "baby steps" to get out of debt and build financial wealth! The principles he teaches are simple and to the point and he has some great insite into everyday life and how to counteract it's effects of being "normal". We are gazelle intense and look forward to being financially fit millionaires in our 40's & 50's! This is not a get rich quick scheme. It is a way to make your money work for you and includes getting on a budget and paying off debt quickly and setting yourself up for retirement. Since buying this book 3 weeks ago, we have bought 5 more, as well as the cd's ang have given them out to friends to help them out with their total money makeovers! I would and do recommend this book to anyone willing to step up and change their current situations with down right hard work and a will to be debt free!
