About this audiobook
You can Baby Step your way to becoming a millionaire.
Most people know Dave Ramsey as the guy who did stupid with a lot of zeros on the end. He made his first million in his twenties—the wrong way—and then went bankrupt. That’s when he set out to learn what God had to say about managing money and building wealth. As a result, Dave developed the Ramsey Baby Steps and became a millionaire again—this time the right way.
After three decades of guiding millions of others through the plan, the evidence is undeniable: the Baby Steps not only work for everyone, but they’re proven to work fast. If you follow the plan, you will get out of debt, and you can become a millionaire.
In Baby Steps Millionaires: How Ordinary People Built Extraordinary Wealth --and How You Can Too, readers will . . .
• Take a deeper look at Baby Step 4 to learn how Dave invests and builds wealth
• Learn how to bust through the barriers preventing them from becoming a millionaire
• Hear true stories from ordinary people who dug themselves out of debt and built wealth
• Discover how anyone can become a millionaire, no matter their financial status.
Baby Steps Millionaires isn’t a book that tells the secrets of the rich. It’s not even full of sophisticated, hard-to-grasp concepts reserved only for the elite. As a matter of fact, this information is straightforward, practical, and maybe even a little boring. But the life you lead if you follow the Baby Steps is anything but boring! You don’t need a large inheritance or the winning lottery number to become a millionaire. Anyone can do it—even today. For those who are ready, it’s game on!

Like a lot of the people reviewing this book, I thought I was going to listen to repackaged information, something I’ve previously heard / read from Ramsey. But, I was pleasantly surprised to find this book just as “giving” as its predecessors. With clear steps (that were expanded upon) and more stories, the book showed me what to believe and work for beyond steps 1 to 3. This is another one of those that I’ll be listening to / reading a few times this year! It needs to soak into my soul3 people found this helpful

I like hearing the stories of people who walked the steps and made it to millionaire status. This book has some of that. I think it shouldn’t have to go so far into the baby steps, and you can tell that he lifted some of this from other books like his one on legacies. But overall, good audio book. His testimony at the end is powerful and the best reminder that money is just an object, not a purpose.1 person found this helpful

Life dealt with me, I was turned up and down, there were nothing left with me. All these happening, were caused, due to bad and poor credit scores. I thought my world had ended, not just that, I also never had a chance to get loan due to a credit score of as low as 498. And I needed to overhaul and fix my credit report back to functioning one, while seeking for help, a friend, linked me to this repair expert, TROVIAN CREDIT REPAIR. They fixed my credit report within a week and built my score up to 795 and now I am back on my feet. I am out here to say Thank you to TROVIAN CREDIT REPAIR. Please contact them. TROVIANCREDITREPAIR@GMAIL.COM. Because this is reliable. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5

I've read a lot of books but through reading this book, I feel more empowered with lots of wisdom because the principles applied I backed up by the word of life and the last part where you speak about slShalom peace which surpasses every man's understanding, that on its own seals the deal, thank you ?, may the message you're teaching reach millions out there and people be blessed and their financial literacy and intelligence be increased

Best book on finances I have ever read/ listened to! It came highly recommended by my millionaire mom, who had been following this teaching for years. And I wondered what changed her situation as she was also starting from nothing. I haven't read it myself till now, but realized that it was from here that my mom was teaching me from when I learned to be a faithful steward. I paid off my house at 40 as a single mom, even during COVID lockdowns in Canada when I was not allowed to work. Thank you Dave Ramsey! God bless your ministry! - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5

So simple to understand - laymen’s terms!! So motivating, and so wonderful how the gospel was woven in as well. Not hammered in your face for those who would be turned off, but yet it’s there, crystal clear for anyone wanting to know how to become a Christian. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5

The first few chapters were good. Then other Ramsey books were discussed. And then it became preaching. I thought I was going to enjoy more success stories to the end but it wasn't to be. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5

Because of his teachings I am set to pay of $39000 and some change in debt by the end of 2023! Just about a years worth of gazelle strength movement, working two jobs, a side hustle and applying every cent to my debt. I finally feel free and ready to take on the next steps. If i can do it anyone can! - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5

Everyone in America needs to read this book. My wife and I have been doing the baby steps for three years. We started out with $117k in debt, we have just passed the $100k net worth mark. We are 30&31 at the time of this review. Continuing to follow these steps we will surely be baby steps millionaires by age 40. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5

There were too many unnecessary references to god and the bible, I’m all for charitable giving and volunteering but it doesn’t need to be through a church or have to be referred to that way constantly throughout the book.3 people found this helpful
