Dave Ramsey Segment on 60 Minutes



This Sunday, November 7, 60 Minutes will air a story they have done on Dave Ramsey and his Financial Peace movement (can I call it a movement?).

As far as I know, this is an entirely positive segment. But with 60 Minutes--who knows? Maybe they've dug up forged documents that Ramsey didn't show up for his radio show last year or something like that.

No, I'm assuming it should be a good piece since Ramsey has emailed folks on his mailing list encouraging them to watch. When he was in Louisville back in the Spring to do his Total Money Makeover seminar, CBS came to film his presentation. I assume that some of the seminar clips that will be shown Sunday night come from the Palace Theater, a Louisville landmark.

If you are a regular reader of my blog, you may remember my own story, "Searching for Financial Peace," regarding the way Ramsey's principles changed the lives of Kathy and me. After seven months of faithfully following the program, we never run out of money at the end of the month because we budget everything. We have paid off a HUGE amount on outstanding bills (ask me in private and I'll tell you, but it will blow you away). And our giving is way up from what it was before. His principles work. I can't encourage you enough to read one of his books or if possible take the 13-week seminar .

60 Minutes will air Sunday night, November7, on CBS at 7PM EST/6 PM CST.
