About this audiobook
Too often, our money problems grow into some kind of monster hiding in the closet, growing bigger and badder and scarier every day that we keep them hidden. But if we want to change the behaviors that get us into trouble, we’ve got to kick the monster out of the closet—and laugh at him.
And I don’t know anyone better equipped to do this than Jon Acuff. Through his blog and book, Stuff Christians Like, Jon’s proven that he has a unique perspective on life that helps us get the joke and get the truth behind the joke every time. Lucky for us, Jon decided to chronicle his observations on his own journey toward Financial Peace.
Think of it as an insider’s guide to the “Dave Ramsey” stuff we all laugh about.

Witty , Worthy & Work(practical)
Author is being real about addressing financial mess and how one can laugh about it/ at yourself/with your spouse.
To apply the nuggets taught and knowing your why b4 buying are some works towards exclaiming:”I’m debt free!!” - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Funny as it’s ever going to get! Would recommend this to anyone

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Hilariously funny and exciting at the same time. I loved it! A must read for all Dave Ramsey fans.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5It wasn’t as enlightening as I had hoped. Didn’t get much out of it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very entertaining! It was a good break and laugh from a lot of the seriousness of the Ramsey crew. Not that seriousness is bad or unexpected with personal finance.. just made this book a nice break and a solid laugh. Also, you are not alone Jon, I have also wondered about that periwinkle shirt!
