The other day I posted a photo on social media. I never dreamed I would have all the messages I did regarding this photo.
How I'm spending my Saturday mornings.

The biggest question I received - What is this?
The photo I posted was regarding The Legacy Journey program led by Dave Ramsey. Many of you are familiar with who he is, especially if you live in the Nashville area. If you are not familiar with who he is, you can visit his website daveramsey.com for more information on who he is and what he does.
The second biggest question I received was asking if this was the same program as Financial Peace University. (Many sent me their stories how FPU changed their lives. Which was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G to hear. I love seeing people do well.)
NO! Financial Peace University and The Legacy Journey are two totally different programs.
Per daveramsey.com here is the short version of each program.
The first one is Financial Peace University – this is the program most people know.
We all need a plan for our money. Financial Peace University (FPU) is that plan! It teaches God's ways of handling money. FPU presents biblical, practical steps to get from where you are to where you've dreamed you could be. This plan will show you how to get rid of debt, manage your money, spend and save wisely, and much more!
FPU classes meet for around an hour and a half each week for nine weeks.
Financial Peace University (FPU) is a nine-week class on money taught by America's most trusted financial guru, Dave Ramsey. Dave and his teaching team will walk you through the basics of budgeting, dumping debt, planning for the future, and much more!

I hope this quickly answered many questions I received. I tried to respond to each one individually but thought this would be much easier. If you have other questions I would suggest visiting his website and/or calling his office. I am not affiliated with him or any of his businesses.
However; I will share with you several of his "famous" quotes. :)
Best of luck to each of you wherever you are on your money journey. I wish you sincere success!
Until next time,
