WINNEMUCCA - Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University will be offered in Winnemucca beginning on March 1.
Nearly 1.5 million families have been able to positively change their financial situation through Financial Peace University (FPU), a 13-week video course taught by author and nationally syndicated radio personality Dave Ramsey on DVD. FPU teaches families and individuals common-sense principles like how to make a plan with their money so they are able to free themselves of debt and build lasting wealth.
As a service to the community, the Winnemucca Seventh-day Adventist Church will be hosting the Financial Peace University program on Thursday evenings from March 1 through May 24. Free childcare will be provided, and there is no tuition charge to attend the event - your only cost is for the class materials.
Classes will be held on Thursday evenings (March 1 through May 24) from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at 5130 Palisade Drive in Winnemucca. This is a life-changing opportunity that has helped countless Americans find their way to financial fitness in this extremely challenging economy. You are invited to come and view a sample program, ask questions and register for the full 13-week program if desired.
According to his biography, Ramsey knows first-hand what it is like to be broke and hopeless. He made and lost a fortune in his early 20's. Because of his experiences, he decided to help other people change the way they handle their money and began teaching FPU in 1994.
"Because of the lessons we learned in FPU, we have been able to pay off $36,000 in just 17 months!" said Christine Cohn, a former FPU participant. "Debt had caused us to stop dreaming because we couldn't look into the future without feeling stressed. Now we have a plan for our money and are working together for our future."
"Whether you are deeply in debt or financially secure, FPU will help you gain a new perspective on how to handle your money," writes Ramsey. "These lessons are especially essential right now as people are trying to regain control of their finances."
The current economy has people feeling more hopeless than ever when it comes to their money. In an effort to recover the economy from the ground up, Ramsey has begun The Great Recovery that challenges individuals to take personal responsibility for their finances and leaders to educate others about finances through programs such as FPU.
FPU is a fun and easy-to-understand program. After each lesson there is a small group discussion that provides accountability and encouragement. Topics include saving for emergencies, budgeting, relationships and money and getting out of debt. Ramsey's unique "Debt Snowball" program has many families debt-free within two years.
Each class participant needs a kit that includes a lifetime family membership to FPU (which allows you to attend future classes anywhere, anytime, as an alumnus, free of charge!), a FPU workbook, a FPU envelope system, 13 audio lessons, bonus CD, budgeting forms, debit card holders and Ramsey's best-selling book, "Financial Peace." Kits can be purchased ($93) at the Preview Event; online at www.daveramsey.com; or by calling (888) 227-3223.
You owe it to yourself and your family to take advantage of this opportunity! To register or for more information call (775) 623-2786 or e-mail FPUWinne@gmail.com.
