FPU Graduation, TiVo, Etc.
Lots to catch up with here, so I think it’s time for a speed round update…
FPU Graduation
We had a great class and graduated 41 people, who paid off more than $130,000 and saved over $40,000. We also turned in more than $8.3M in credit offers!
Now we’re ramping up for another class during the summer. If you’re interested, head on over to GazelleIntensity.com.
In other Dave Ramsey news, we also have a group heading to Birmingham on Saturday for a Total Money Makeover Live Event.
TiVo is Great!
There are all kinds of reasons to love TiVo, but tonight I was reminded of another one. I’ve been watching The Unit on CBS on Tuesday nights. It’s a great military action/family show about a group of Army special forces types and their wives. Tonight, CBS decided to air two new episodes instead of just one. My VCR would have been programmed for one (because I’d have done it manually). But the TiVo is SMART! It just kept on recording and grabbed the second episode. Gotta love it!
Easter Bunny Lessons
It’s a bit out of date, but my daughter taught me quite a lesson at Easter. In her Easter basket was a bible book cover and a Narnia bookmark. She asked me to put her Bible in the cover (which I did) and then to put the bookmark in the story Jesus told about the talents (Matt 25:14-30). She’s only five and a few weeks before this I had miraculously found the story when I needed to in order to prove a point to her about taking care of her toys. She didn’t seem that interested at the time, but that five year old sponge of a brain was paying attention.
It’s another reminder that they are paying attention even when we don’t think they are. They notice the good things and the bad.
That’s all for now folks. Don’t forget Mother’s Day!
