Dave Ramsey Live - I did NOT buy the T-Shirt

It was quite interesting to see Dave Ramsey live. There is what I took from the show:

1. I have officially learned everything he has to teach.
There were no new stories to hear, or life changing moments for me. I have read Financial Peace and Total Money Makeover at least 3 times a piece, listened to all 13 CDs for Financial Peace University, and watched two DVDs prior to this live event.

2. This is excellent, if your spouse is not fully on board.
While was filing the workbook before we covered the material, my spouse was listening and getting on board. He didn't show it while we were there, but the entire car ride home we discussed the budget and his thoughts on the show.

3. People are going into debt, trying to get out of debt.
Let me describe the scene:  Tickets $29 / VIP $69  - we bought the $29 tickets. We parked at the movie theater around the corner from the arena so we didn't have to pay for parking (Savings $5). At every break they sold Financial Peace University ($99), Financial Peace Jr. ($30), Total Money Makeover Starter Kit ($50), T-shirts ($15). Every person left there with bags stuffed to the gills.  We walked to our car empty handed except the free workbook.  I think we are the only people actual implementing his principles.

I believe in his principles because they work. I do not I believe in selling hundreds of dollars worth of stuff, to broke people that clearly need help.
