Publisher's summary

Dave Ramsey is a businessman and entrepreneur who accumulated a $4-million real-estate portfolio, only to lose it all - and nearly everything else he owned - by making the same mistake millions of Americans make every day: he got too far into debt to get out. Dave Ramsey is also a Christian family man who, through the turmoil of his financial nightmare, discovered a new way of life. He shared the lessons he learned by writing Financial Peace, a simple but powerful guide that offers practical lessons on how to get out of debt - and stay out.

Please note: This is the abridged edition. An unabridged version is also available.

Great Techniques and Conviction in your idea's!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I need a change in the direction my Finances are heading with Credit Card Debt overwhelming our day to day activities. Now I need to apply his principles and fight my way out of debt using his ideas which can only work if I Dicipline myself to make the neccassary changes Dave Outlined. This is the first time I've run into this scary horizon but I feel I have a Plan to Follow now that can lead to a Great Shining Light at the end of the Tunnel!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Financial Peace?

I'm taking Control effective immediately by sacraficing the things I really don't need and getting smart about each and every purchase moving forward as well as my investments and forced savings!

What about Dave Ramsey’s performance did you like?

Daves methods of taking Control of your Finances are exactly what I needed to hear at the exact right time.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Yes! It was my first Audible Book given to me by a good friend who feels this Information can make me Stop all my bad habits which are Debt riddled and spinning out of control with no positive direction and now....after listening to Dave's riviting story I can set sights on a New Path to Success if I follow his Principles in which I took 3 pages of notes so Yes it was an Extreme reaction which I plan to follow through on. I have to and want do it!

Any additional comments?

So Glad I was able to listen to Daves adventure with all the trial and tribulations he experienced! Many of the uninformed like myself when it comes to the pitfalls of the Credit Card Crooks can really learn and become educated listening to Daves Message. I wish I heard this years ago since I'm 59 now but there's still time to impact my Financial future based on following Daves steps so Thank You Very Much and I'll see you on the road to Credit Relief on the corner of Financial Success in retirement!

This should be mandatory coursework in the schools to teach high school age kids how to avoid financial credit card disaster and how a good Investment plan can set up a great financial future for everyone who follow the principles outlined by Dave! Thanks Again!

Very good, but too short

Dave is great! This book is very short though. In addition, there's some weird feedback when listening to this audiobook.
