Years ago I discovered Financial Peace University (FPU) and can honestly say it made a significant difference in my financial life. While I sometimes stray from the ideas taught in this course, overall its teachings guide my financial planning. I would encourage you to look into this program. The instructor, Dave Ramsey, is entertaining as well as passionate about FPU. The course teaches on the following subjects:
- Super Saving – How and why to save money
- Relation with Money – How to communicate with your partner about money
- Cash Flow Planning – Developing a monthly budget that works
- Dumping Debt – Tools to eliminate debt in your life
- Credit Sharks in Suits – Credit scores and how to deal with debt collectors
- Buyer Beware – Marketing and its effects on you
- Clause and Effect – Understanding the world of insurance
- That’s Not Good enough – Understanding the power of purchasing with cash
- Of Mice and Mutual Funds – Understanding the jargon surrounding investing
- From Fruition to Tuition – Retirement/college planning
- Working in Your Strengths – Finding that right job
- Real Estate and Mortgages – Understanding the largest investment most will make
- The Great Misunderstanding – How generous giving can change your life
I have no connection with and make no money from this course. I simply think it is the best course out there. If you’ve ever struggled with finances, please consider Financial Peace University.
