Dave Ramsey is the inventor of the 7 steps to financial peace. I’m a graduate and I can tell you that there is no better feeling than when you realize you could (if you wanted/needed to) you could pay your bills by delivering pizza. That you no longer have to suck up to your boss because you have to keep your job, you can now give your real professional opinion and live with the consequences. The feeling that if someone came to you with a true need you could, without thinking about it– Meet that need in a big way. Or, the peace of mind when Jesus calls you are in a position to say, “Yes!” Get started today. Its never too late and there is no debt too large.
From Dave’s blog…
Get out of debt the same way you learned to walk—one step at a time. Dave has taught these principles to millions via radio, books, Financial Peace University, live events and online.

Baby Step 1
$1,000 to start an Emergency Fund
An emergency fund is for those unexpected events in life that you can’t plan for: the loss of a job, an unexpected pregnancy, a faulty car transmission, and the list goes on and on. It’s not a matter of if these events will happen; it’s simply a matter of when they will happen. Learn more
Baby Step 2
Pay off all debt using the Debt Snowball
List your debts, excluding the house, in order. The smallest balance should be your number one priority. Don’t worry about interest rates unless two debts have similar payoffs. If that’s the case, then list the higher interest rate debt first. Learn more
Baby Step 3
3 to 6 months of expenses in savings
Once you complete the first two baby steps, you will have built serious momentum. But don’t start throwing all your “extra” money into investments quite yet. It’s time to build your full emergency fund. Learn more

“The unexamined life is not worth living.”
-Socrates
I don’t think Socrates P&M (porn and masturbation) in mind when he said this but I really do think examining our thought/fantasy life has tremendous benefit. John Mayer tells Playboy with unbelievable clarity exactly how P&M has affected his life and relationships. Wow, this guy really knows himself (‘nuf said).
“I ran into John Mayer one night in Hollywood with Ron Jeremy and he seemed to be quiet familiar with Ron’s work. Here is what he has to say about porn.”
