Dave Ramsey is a financial guru who has helped thousands of people to take control of their financial situation and become debt-free. He has helped countless individuals to become financially- free through his ground-breaking books and courses.
Dave’s personal financial story is quite amazing and extraordinary. He became a millionaire in his early twenties through the real estate market and lost it all because of debt and poor financial sense. He even had to file for bankruptcy. Slowly, but surely he and his wife began to dig themselves out of their situation and became not only debt-free but also multi-millionaires.

Dave is passionate about teaching others how to become debt free and putting them on the trajectory of financial freedom. The ultimate goal is what he calls having “financial peace”.
Dave is famous for telling people that he only carries four cards in his wallet: his personal debit card, his business debit card, his driver’s license ID card, and his gun license. No credit cards whatsoever, because he strongly believes in having absolutely no debt.
What the Bible says about debt
The Bible even tells us to stay out of debt. Romans 13:8 says: “Owe no man any thing, but to love one another…”(KJV). Debt is just something that will not allow anyone to live their best life.
