Best Financial Management Book EVER!
I have searched for years for an easy to follow book that would help me get out of debt, manage my money better and help me to build long-term wealth and I have finally found it, thanks to God!
As a single parent, with debt up to my eyeballs and a business, I knew that things had to change if I didn't want my daughter to suffer finacially but I didn't know how to change it.
I have read Rich Dad Poor Dad and other property investment/financial advice books but there was always a catch of having to go to a 'paid' service to find out more or to start applying knowledge - this book is different!
I have spent the last 4 hours listening to the book and was able to start the process of the 7 step plan as I was listening. Hearing the story about another single parent and others who, like me, were in terrible financial positions and how they have been able to become debt free and start building wealth is exactly the motivation I needed to start taking ACTION.
All of the steps are easy to follow and while they require effort, have transformed how I view money and given me the order in which I should tackle my financial problems - which is something most other books lack.
I can see very clearly now where I should be focusing my efforts and why. Moreover, I now feel empowered to make better financial decisions and it has actually saved me from making another costly mistake to the tune of £18,000.
I'm now going to invest in the Financial Peace university, which at only $129 is the most affordable financial program I have ever come across.
I am so grateful to God for answering my prayers and for finally helping me to take accountability and responsibility for my financial mistakes. I'm ready to be wealthy! #poverty2prosperty here I come!

Very 'American' but brilliant advice
Although not totally in sync for a U.K. audience (different terminology, investments, etc) you can work around that.
The principals however are spot on, having an emergency fund has totally changed my thinking about money and the budgeting to zero each payday is brilliant, I now have money at the end of the week while still having the payments allocated in sinking funds instead of spending it if they didn't come out of my bank.
All in all, highly recommend, a great way to look at the way you deal with money.

Probably decent advice if you live in the US.
There is some decent advice in this book but the amount of time God is mentioned in an financial advice book is very strange. It's like reading a book on quantum physics and the author keeps mentioning the influence of fairies on physics. His focus on the long term financial planning is refreshing and it can't hurt to read but the book is very much for an American audience. As far as the performance goes; I did not appreciate the shouting or the overly emotional delivery.

Life changing advice
Dave Ramsey knows his stuff. Listening to this book has really changed how I think and feel about spending and budgeting. I've gone from living in my overdraft to having literally £1000s in savings. give it a go - you won't regret it.

Very poor book
Most of the book tells you about not borrowing money. It's not worth it at all.

Great advice
Very straight forward advice that anybody can follow and become wealthy get out of debt save for retirement etc.
The advice is very american-based which is obvious as he is from the US but it translates very easily to the UK so can still be followed.
I loved the baby steps, so easy to take on board and digest. I admit it would take most people a while to go through all the steps and reach the stage where u get to "live like no one else because u've lived like no one else"but the goal definitely seems worth it.
highly recommended.

Good sound advice
It's what many people need to hear. No rocket science. Just straight talking. Short and to the point. The tough talking could feel a little OTT for some but it is not unbearable; I found it entertaining and used appropriately to stress points. Will pay for itself many times over
