Hey Phil,

Great Post. I am a big Ramsey fan myself. He has a straightforward style that I like. Some people are put off by that, but it doesn’t change the simple and practical advice he is giving.

I actually think it is pretty funny how Dave started this whole hoopla about his debt snowball strategy. He obviously knows people may pay a little more interest using his method, but he also understands human nature. The reality is, for some people, his method will be much better. For others, starting with the highest rate will work out better. Point being, there is no right and wrong way, there is just the best way for each individual.

Great synopsis of what Dave’s about. I’m a big DR fan. I’ve listened to him on and off for years but never started actually applying his plan until a couple of months ago. Hoping to convince my fiance to go through FPU this fall.

Dave Ramsey is a hard worker and knows how to get things done. It’s great to see how much he’s always giving back.

You need to take the time to read his books. You won’t really ‘get’ him until you do, even though you are already a fan. I think he’s worth reading no matter what financial shape you are in. I enjoy your blog!

Nice write up PTMoney! I am a huge Dave Ramsey fan myself. He got us turned around as well and I have lead two FPU workshops at my church and seen first hand how much this plan has helped people. The Total Money Makeover book is awesome!
