SPEAKERS

Dave Ramsey is a personal money-management expert, national radio personality, and the best-selling author of The Total Money Makeover. In his latest book, a follow-up of his enormously successful New York Times best-sellers Financial Peace and More Than Enough, Dave exemplifies his life's work of teaching others how to be financially responsible so they can acquire enough wealth to take care of loved ones, live prosperously into old age, and give generously to others.

Dave knows first hand what financial peace means in his own life - by age 26, he had established a four-million-dollar real estate portfolio, only to lose it by age 30. He has since rebuilt his financial life and now devotes himself to helping ordinary people understand and relieve their financial distress.

Dave hosts a nationally-syndicated radio program, The Dave Ramsey Show, which is heard by nearly 4.5 million listeners each week on more than 450 radio stations. He is the creator of Financial Peace University (FPU), a program that helps people learn new behaviors around money. More than one million families have attended FPU classes. The average family is completely out of debt, except for the mortgage, in 18 to 24 months.
