FAQs
-
What are God’s and grandma’s ways of handling money?
-
The Bible has 2,350 verses on money, offering a clear blueprint for managing your money the right way. By following God’s financial principles—budgeting, saving, avoiding debt, and building wealth—you can experience financial peace and be free to give generously. Ramsey’s proven, commonsense Baby Steps plan isn’t just about money—it’s about creating a secure future and living with purpose. Learn more about God’s ways of managing money.
Where does grandma come into this? Well, these commonsense money principles—just like your grandma or great-grandmother used to follow—have helped generations manage their money well. Dave has been teaching these principles for 30 years because they still work today.
-
Shouldn’t personal finance include credit card and loan management?
-
We believe having debt is the opposite of healthy personal finances. Your income is your greatest wealth-building tool. And you can’t build wealth when all your income goes toward debt payments every month. That’s why a life without credit cards and loans is a life of financial peace—no more worrying about missed payments or using your paychecks to cover the past. Learn how to pay off debt fast.
-
Where can I learn about investing and retirement?
-
When you follow the 7 Baby Steps, you’ll start investing 15% of your household income in retirement after you’ve completed Baby Steps 1–3. Once you’ve paid off all your consumer debt and saved 3–6 months of expenses in a fully funded emergency fund, then you’re ready. Find out more about how to invest in your future with a trustworthy pro.
-
Should I use tax software to file myself or do I need a tax pro?
-
If you have personal or self-employed income and feel confident using tax software, you can easily file online with Ramsey SmartTax. If you have more complicated taxes, don’t want to take the time to do your own taxes, or want expert advice, then a RamseyTrusted® tax advisor is for you.
