Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University (FPU) is a 13 week small group study of financial principles designed to help families and individuals understand how to handle money responsibly. It teaches how to dump your debt, get control of your money, and construct a plan to walk in Financial Peace. Because money management is 80% behavior and 20% head knowledge, FPU helps you build that behavior through commitment and accountability. In short, it’s a great way to get your finances on track and make sure you stay there.
In five years, I’ve led the class more than 14 times and helped people eliminate more that $500,000 in debt! I was the honored as the Coordinator Spotlight in Dave Ramsey’s FPU Coordinator Newsletter in September 2007.
