Book • 1994

The Total Money Makeover provides a comprehensive plan for financial fitness, focusing on seven 'baby steps' to help individuals get out of debt and build wealth.

The steps include saving a $1,000 emergency fund, using the debt-snowball method to pay off debts, saving a 3-6 month emergency fund, investing for retirement, saving for children's college, paying off the home mortgage, and building wealth.

The book also corrects common money myths and offers practical advice based on real-life success stories.
