So Dave. For the past 7 years I have lived like no one else. Divorced because my husband chose wine over our family, I was bereft and without retirement plans...and 63 years old. So I had a job....snd saved literally every penny. In the past 7 years I saved 205 thousand dollars towards retirement, paid off half my house (80 grand), have my 20 grand emergency fund, have my 6 grand new used car fund and believe me, during this time, read every book you wrote.
I am now 71 years old and am planning to retire from my very stressful State job and have a lovely side business, teaching Qigong to seniors. I plan to continue saving and paying off my mortgage as now this has become a comfortable lifestyle. ..and what do you know, living frugally is now a trend!
All this to say many thanks for your inspiration and your loving concern for us all.

Dave Ramsey's insights have been a game-changer for me! His practical approach to financial management has empowered me to take control of my money and work towards a debt-free life. The Total Money Makeover is my go-to guide, and I appreciate how he breaks down complex concepts into easy-to-follow steps.

[Gonethinkin]

I can't stop crying... just when I thought that I was at the end of my journey I find Dave Ramsey! Now the fun begins, no more debt, no more not answering the phone, no more thoughts of ceasing life as we know it, no more... God, thank you for the introduction. Mr Ramsey, it is a pleasure meeting you, thank you!!!

[EastCoastReefer]

Dave has taught me more than anyone in my life. I'm not ashamed to say it.

[sbloomer]

Been married 3 1/2 years, 50k in debt and we live with my parents. I would find my self driving around in neighborhoods close to home crying because I failed in having our own home. This happened a few times and it was an incredible burden to bare knowing that you are married, yet broke and can’t afford your own place. I was near despair but kept going trying to better the situation with unpractical money applications. That was just a few months ago. Two weeks ago my wife and I attended our first of nine FPU classes at Harvest Bible Chapel Elgin, IL. We now have baby step one secure and have begun baby step two with good traction! My hope has been restored and I believe that the best is yet to come! We thank you Dave for your story and your passion to help others see what is achievable by trusting God’s plan and stop being stupid. He has used you in a mighty way and still is as He has inspired us through you to walk by Faith in this area of our life which will transcend in all other areas of our life so we can share our story in the hopes to multiply the story and bring God more glory! We thank God for you, brother Dave and we look forward to our debt free scream!

In Him with love,
Scottie & Zuni Bloomer

When he explained the link between the radio show and his book through God, i got cold chills running down my body. God is amazing!

[johannesswillery]

What I love about Dave's show is hearing distraught people suddenly believe that they can fix their situation. Never fails to inspire.

[thanks_ace]

Ramsey is the man... Haters will hate and will stay broke.. Believers will believe and succeed!! Dave, may God continue to bless you. Thanks for ALL your content whether it all applies to me or only some of it.

[Axeman]

Just payed cash for our new used home, thank God for working through Dave.

[SuperiorVending]

I was thousands in credit card debt and car loans when I was 21 years old

I'm now 26, I make $45, 000 a year at my job and started a Vending Machine Business 9 months ago. And its doing well enough that I can quit my job at anytime and work for myself. Lots of that inspiration came from Dave and Graham Stephan!

[ernie]

I'm going through it Now Today! I lost my job of 15 years...and about 2 weeks later I found out I had more debt that I have ever even known about. The thought of loosing my home and being on the streets in cold is so scary. You don't think that it can ever happen to you. But It Can!! Dave Ramsey is all I got rite now...I swear this man is gonna save my life. We are on a written budget trying to dig out of this. The day i'm completely out of this CC debt...I wanna meet this man and give him a Big hug. Were fighting Mr. Ramsey and were gonna Win! God has never given up on me and I'm not about to give up on him.

[Shadow]

The exact same lessons Dave taught back in 1992 are just as relevant and pertinent today. Dave - thank you my friend.

[tommiedinkbell]

Each time I read or hear Dave's story I thank God he is sharing it. 

[JoeyPedals]

It took me almost 2.5 years to become debt free minus the house, I love the fact that Dave Ramsey has given us the tools to make our lives better. I'm not shooting in the dark, I have a real target.
