First time to this site. Have been listening to Dave Ramsey about 6 months. Husband works 2 jobs (1 full 1PT) I work prn. We so need the Dave Ramsey Starter Kit. Have been trying to work our way out of this mess we're in. Dave's philosophy is so simple. Wish we had found him years ago. He has motivated us in many ways. And believes that Christ is King. Many thanks.

I actually would love to win this gift and give it to my grandparents who have (very) shaky finances. Maybe if they give the book (or the kit) a shot, it could help turn things around for me. :)

I'm getting excited just thinking about winning. Dave offers such a wealth of information much of which has changed my life financially.

This evening I was working on a 2010 Financial Report article for my blog and am so happy to begin 2011 consumer debt free.

With Daves help and all of the great finance blogs like yours Phil we are on track to fully fund our Emergency fund and add an extra $250 to our mortgage payment each month in 2011.

I appreciate all the hard work and passion you and Dave put into educated people about finances.

BTW, our final financial goal for this year is a debt free/cash funded Disney Christmas vacation with the kids. It will feel great to return home in January with no vacation debt.

My teenage son and I heard Dave (via video) at church during a special series of services. I think the starter kit would be a great way to share more of Dave's great ideas with my son. He loved the series and thought Dave was awesome.

I recently started listening to Dave Ramsey and am interested in learning more. My fiance just graduated from college in May and has $97,000 in Sallie Mae student loan debt. What a nightmare! This Dave Ramsey starter kit could help us start up our budget!

Thanks for the giveaway!

I don't know what qualifies as a thoughtful comment, but I need to get my finances in order and would like to win either the book OR the starter kit.
