In his latest book, Baby Steps Millionaires, Dave Ramsey focuses on the ability for anyone to become a millionaire. While this is a new book, the Ramsey’s baby step plan isn’t novel. This plan isn’t a new, exciting, get-rich-quick plan, but one of discipline and financial prudency through simple baby steps. He has been teaching and many people have been living out these principles for decades. This book focuses on baby steps 4 though 7; the process of building wealth and the achievability of becoming a millionaire in your lifetime. Ramsey illustrates his point with story after story of ordinary people through patient financial discipline becoming baby steps millionaires.
“That’s what this book is about: helping more people like you become wealthy so they can live their dreams and give outrageously. It’s a book about hope. A book about belief. A book full of success stories about people like Tiffany, John, and Maddi. And it’s also a book about statistical proof.”
Dave Ramsey is a #1 national bestselling author, personal financial expert and radio host hear by millions. For nearly thirty years he has helped others eliminate debt and build wealth through sound financial advice. The book is set in Ramsey’s own past failure and success with money where he made his first million the wrong way, only to end up in bankruptcy. He developed the baby steps as a way to pay off debt and build wealth the right way. This book focuses on the building of wealth and the achievable goal of becoming a millionaire in your lifetime.
Ramsey illustrates his point with true story after true story of ordinary people through patient financial discipline becoming baby steps millionaires. He is a master at motivating people to achieve what most think is impossible. Ramsey’s principles are based in biblical truths on money. Ramsey doesn’t make unjustified claims about his plan, he backs this up with an in-depth survey of millionaires. This survey dispels the myth of how millionaires build their wealth and what they do with it.
“Millions have experienced significant life-change because of the Baby Steps, and that means only one thing… YOU CAN DO THIS TOO!”
This book is helpful for everyone from high school on. It provides sound financial advice and a plan that will work for anyone. I have taught Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University, and highly recommend it. His writing style is simplistic and easily read. He provides the plan and provides the encouragement and hope to succeed There are area’s where his theology can be overreaching or place too high of an emphasize on money, but this is expected when the focus is money. Much of the information found in the book can be found in his other books or through listening to his radio show. In the end, if you fully follow the baby steps you will succeed financially.
