Because there is such an interest in the book Financial Peace by Dave Ramsey, we will be doing a study on the book.

Our starting date will be June 27th. That should give everyone a chance to get a copy from their local library if at all possible.

I can't wait to start this and have anyone that is interested take part.

Oooh his books are great. Gripey listens to him almost everyday on the radio...... . That's actually part of what got him on the frugal bandwagon. ;)

This sounds like an excellent thread to start. I have come out way ahead of paying my debt and following his steps, except like I said in the other post that I'm still putting in my 401 (b) due to starting retirement late. I had to dig in my EF so I'm building it back up. Hopefully by the end of this month I will have $1,000 in my EF.

A good companion book is The Financial Peace Planner. I went through it along with reading Financial Peace a few years ago.


I noticed that my library system has Financial Peace: Revisited - an updated, expanded version of the original. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0670032085/qid=1118324768/sr=2-1/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_1/103-5972703-9637434

My library has Financial Peace but doesn't have Total Money Makeover yet. The lady who orders books said it is not available but they are going to purchase a copy after July 1st and will let me be the first to read it.:D I'll try to keep up with the discussions. Thanks.:D

We are not doing this. There wasn't enough interest when I first tried, so for now it's been put on hold.
