Dave Ramsey shares Biblical wisdom on the legacy we build with our wealth. What does the Bible really say about money? About wealth? How much does God expect you to give to others? How does wealth affect your friendships, marriage, and children? How much is "enough"? There’s a lot of bad information in our culture today about wealth - and the wealthy. Worse, there’s a growing backlash in America against our most successful neighbors, but why?

He shared the lessons he learned by writing Financial Peace, a simple but powerful guide that offers practical lessons on how to get out of debt - and stay out.

Every parent wants the best for their child. That’s why they send them to college! But most parents struggle to pay for school and end up turning to student loans. That’s why the majority of graduates walk away with $35,000 in student loan debt and no clue what that debt will really cost them. Student loan debt doesn’t open doors for young adults - it closes them. They postpone getting married and starting a family. That debt even takes away their freedom to pursue their dreams. But there is a different way. Going to college without student loans is possible!

While mental health is complex, our culture has made anxiety into something it’s not. For the majority of people who face anxiety, the truth is simpler than we think: Anxiety is an alarm. It’s a signal — nothing more and nothing less. Anxiety is simply our body’s way of telling us something is wrong. If we stop and listen, we can calm the alarm and move forward into healing and hope.

enjoyed the book.. i just wish he shared more backstory on how he started and grew the Ramsey solutions company. Regardless, this book has tonnes of wisdom on what it takes to properly run a business enterprise in the view of leadership.
Although some parts of the book gets a little slow sometimes due to the format of the content, Dave did an excellent job narrating his book.

It's Abridged!!!
What did you like about this audiobook?
Dave's the man. He inspired and taught me to get debt free and find financial peace.
How has the book increased your interest in the subject matter?
Dave makes you want to be a better leader.
What did you find wrong about the narrator's performance?
This is an abridged book! I'm a big fan (BS3) and love FPU. Heck, we host it at our church every year and even hosted the EntreLeadership simulcast. Hey, I bought the audio AND hardback books. What a huge disappointment to read the book as I listen and notice entire sections, paragraphs and pages just skipped altogether. What's that about? I paid for the whole book, Dave, why couldn't you read it all?Bad form from a great man.

Excellent insights for building a great business
What did you love best about Entreleadership?
Dave provides excellent insight into how to build and grow a successful business based on solid biblical principles. He offers many helpful examples from his own experience to illustrate his points.
There were some excellent pieces of advice that I will likely remember for a lifetime that are very helpful for business and life.
I enjoyed hearing Dave read his own book (as opposed to another narrator) because he is passionate about what he knows and believes and it comes through in his voice.
I also enjoyed that Dave referenced the Bible multiple times. It is refreshing to be reminded that God is in everything we do, including business.

WOW what an awesome book!! Dave really brings it !
What did you love best about Entreleadership?
It is truly everything you need to know, but didn't know who to ask. I loved the section on compensation plans and how to hire someone. The interview process that he recomends is priceless.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Entreleadership?
He put the chairs for their morning staff meeting outside in the snow, because several of them were coming in late. He then had the morning meeting out in it. He told them if they didn't get their act together they would be out in the street.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The entire book moved me.
Any additional comments?
Dave is the perfect example of what you can do when you have God on your side. When you handle everything with integrety and honor you will be a success.

THE most practical book on running a business.
OK...you can toss all those books about running a business written by egg head college professors or knuckleheads who are only good at writing books about running a business. You can also toss the books by successful business people that only stroke their ego and personal brand but fail to share the real deal about how to run a successful business on a daily basis. EntreLeadership is a book that will help your business TODAY regardless of what stage you are at. Practical, Specific, Direct, AND Entertaining. My company is growing like crazy and Dave Ramsey is the business mentor that I need right now. I am now listening to the book for the second time.

Passion! An Author who CARES about his material!
What did you love best about Entreleadership?
Dave Ramsey is a faith driven man, which could come off strong to an atheist like me, but it doesn't. Nearly all of his advice is practically important, and he delivers it all with passion WITHOUT needing to refer to Jesus constantly.
This is an all-encompassing book about determining your strengths, starting a business, assembling a team, managing the work, defining products/services, and more. As an amateur, I appreciated the breadth of the material. The passion and conviction which has come with years of preaching, no doubt, made the hours fly by, even during a second listen-through immediately after the first.
What other book might you compare Entreleadership to and why?
The Personal MBA has much of the same material but with more of the "nitty gritty" details. EntreLeadership focuses mostly on the actual business-side of project and people management, whereas The Personal MBA covers everything from business tax to personal health/diet.
Have you listened to any of Dave Ramsey’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
The one downside: If you have listened to Ramsey's "EntreLeadership" podcast, you have heard the most important pieces of this book. In the podcast, you'll hear a recording of Ramsey in front of an audience (where he shines even more) performing parts/excerpts of this material, then a host discusses the main topic with a guest.
I suggest listening to the audiobook, and if you enjoy the material, listen to the EntreLeadership Podcast from Episode 1. It would be a great way to refresh all the information.
Any additional comments?
Some theology is there but entirely digestible and even charming in places, if that doesn't happen to be your cup of tea.

Got the audiobook to listen while reading it
Leading by example is a big thing. The audiobook doesn’t match up to the actual book. To many shortcuts and skipped sections I’m getting lost and possibly loosing part of the points. Sorry to say this but very disappointed so far.

Very good
Mostly good, common sense, business ideas. Couple items are out there, and while Dave has obviously had success, he is rarely humble, no one likes Dave more than Dave, so you sort of have to put up with that. That said, great book for any leader or aspiring entrepreneur.

Great book, but too religious for me
This book on the whole laid a great foundation for running a successful business. In some instances I found too much reliance on principles of faith and religion. I do not believe those ideals truly exist in business in the northern United States. At times the book seemed to be geared too much towards traditional sales driven organizations which is foreign to the tech centric world that I and others live in.
