VeVe Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Is he the convicted felon who's an apparent expert on everything from cow milking to rocket science?I'm getting them all so confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovebug5 Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Yeah. He's the guy who is an expert on everything, including how to get consumers to spend their hard-earned money on his crappy books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prophet Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 hes a very smart marketer, personally i think his book although i will not buy it would be great for someone who is not coming to a website like this. I'm sure that people will get the 30 or 40.00 the book costs and be able to get rid of a few negatives. Granted if you look around the book sold here is a better value but not everyone finds this website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Methuss Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 You would have been better off buying Dave Ramsey's book. At least Dave's book has REAL answers that work.There are no quick-fixes to cure your debt. As Dave says..."If you're looking for a microwave, you're in the wrong place...we sell crock-pots."

trueq Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Wasted money.80% is common knowledge, the other 20% is stuff you find on this site, but in far less detail!Superficial tripe is the term for this book. There is no "cure" in his book, but you can catch the "superficial tripe" disease from his book.I would agree that ANY Dave Ramsey book is much better.

debtmamma Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Dave Ramsey doesn't deal with credit repair though. I'm waiting for my copy of KT but I suspect his "debt kit" which is supposed to be credit repair letters may be helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm waiting for my copy of KT but I suspect his "debt kit" which is supposed to be credit repair letters may be helpful.Let me ask this...Why would you want more debt? Most people are in these forums because they've done a real bang-up job handling it so far. Your pursuit should be to get out of debt, build savings, and then build long term wealth. You can't do that with debt held over you. And the first step in doing all that is to stop lying to yourself and to stop drinking the lender's KoolAid. Debt is a product that lenders sell you. It's the most heavily marketed product the world has seen...so much so that people have started to think being in debt is normal. It's not normal. And until you get past that and realize you've been flim-flammed into believeing you have to have debt, you will never get out of that hole.Edit: Seems I need to disclaim something. I'm in a BK7 right now myself. I goofed and got the rug yanked out from under me because *I* fell for one of the big money myths myself. You can't build wealth using other people's money. It doesn't work. And it leaves you vulnerable to calamity. I had $950,00 in real estate and a net worth of about $90,000 (not including my IRA). Now I will be lucky to keep my own $286k home. Lesson learned. No more credit and what I do manage to reaffirm in bankruptcy -- the house and cars -- will be paid off as quickly as possible (after I have $1000 in my emergency fund).
