Biography

Ramsey was born in Antioch, Tennessee, to real estate developers. He attended Antioch High School where he played ice hockey. At age 18, Ramsey took the real estate exam and began selling property, working through college at The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Finance and Real Estate.

By 1986, Ramsey had amassed a significant portfolio worth over $4 million. However, when the Competitive Equality Banking Act of 1987 took effect, several banks changed ownership and recalled his $1.2 million in loans and lines of credit because he was over-leveraged. Ramsey was unable to pay and filed for bankruptcy in 1988.

Career

Ramsey experienced several years of financial recovery and began offering financial advice to couples at his local church. In 1988 he founded the Lampo Group, a financial counseling service, and in 1992 he wrote and self-published his first book, Financial Peace.

Ramsey began as one of three alternating hosts of The Money Game on radio station WWTN/Nashville in 1992. The show eventually became The Dave Ramsey Show, Ramsey’s daily three-hour call-in financial advice talk show.

Financial Peace University, Ramsey’s nine-lesson, $129.99 video-based personal finance course, debuted in 1994. The Gannett newspaper group ran his financial column, though it was dropped when they realized that Ramsey had changed the names on the letters to which he was responding. He offered to pay them their money back. The Dave Ramsey Show aired on the Fox Business Network from 2007 to 2010.

Ramsey is an evangelical Christian who describes himself as conservative, both fiscally and culturally.

Ramsey married his wife Sharon in 1982, and the Ramseys have three children: Daniel Ramsey, Denise (Ramsey) Whittemore, and Rachel (Ramsey) Cruze. Cruze works with Ramsey Solutions.

He sold his custom-built home in the Nashville, Tennessee area for $10.2 million in 2021 after living there for over a decade. A spokesperson said he was having another home built in the area.

According to a September 2021 lawsuit, when Julie Ann Stamps, a Ramsey Solutions employee on the customer care team, approached her supervisor regarding coming out as a lesbian in May 2020, the supervisor explained that company policy would not allow Stamps to continue to be employed at Ramsey Solutions.

Stamps alleges that her departure from the company was further expedited once the United States Supreme Court June 15, 2020 ruling in Bostock v. Clayton County was decided. Ramsey Solutions denies the accusations.
