re: Dave Ramsey

If you want to read a very good book about Consumer Finance and the industry read Pound Foolish by Helaine Olen. Great read. She goes in depth about Ramsey, Suze Orman and a few others.

While Olen has a lot to say about what is wrong with Ramsey, Orman, and almost any other entity involved in some way with personal finance, she offers little in the way of alternative solutions. She comes very close to saying the individual is a victim of financial circumstance and little can be done to change that, it is a book that I would expect someone like Elizabeth Warren to endorse.
