Just to let you guys know who regularly use Amazon as I do to watch out for this, if you have clicked the Free Amazon Prime Trail(I don't even remember clicking it) but if you use Amazon and have an account with a credit card on file be wary of it being charged for Amazon Prime($79).

I sadly looked at my credit card information today to discover this charge AMZ*Prime Club 866-557-2820 NV $79.00

Apparently they charge your card without even notifying you(sleazy business tactics)

So I've just contacted Amazon customer service. I'm going to wait for a reply, then I'll call my credit card company and claim a fraudulent charge if they don't work something out.

I found today's news story about using your debit cards to buy gas. The article is incorrect in saying that most gas stations send through $75 hold. I have been using my debit card to buy gas for over 3 years in several states. I have NEVER had a gas station send through a %75 hold. Maybe it is just something that happens in Greenville.

In regards to the MILLIONS OF Veterans who's personal information was stolen. The news and everyone else in the media keep saying that it wasn't stolen for the purpose of using the information to do harm to our VETERNS. Well now lets think about that for a minute? The person or person's by NOW know what they have and what they can get for it on the black market and most all of the NEWS Station keep saying MONITOR YOUR CREDIT REPORT CONSTANTLY, C'mon people they can do alot worse things to you than steal your Credit that is the LEAST OF YOUR WORRIES. Why do you the NEWS MEDIA keep telling them to MONITOR their Credit, when there are other areas that will be far worse affected than their credit. Why don't you tell them about the other areas that will be more damaging than their CREDIT?

And the problem with making money is???

Curious how people think that somehow it is wrong for someone to make money while helping others. Scripture teaches that workers are due their hire, especially those who teach.

I've met Mr. Ramsey personally, know he is a very generous giver and a born-again Christian. I'm not sure why you did not get a response to your contact to his office, but he doesn't hide the fact that he follows Christ and the Bible.

My husband and I are graduates and teachers of FPU and not only has it changed our lives, but the lives of many others. It's practical, funny, motivational. Yes, Dave makes money doing it. Good for him.

My husband and I paid $100 to attend a Financial Peace workshop. Mr. Ramsey has some excellent advise but he's also the quintessential salesman. He's targeted a group and tailored his approach to suit - and he's making millions.

Interestingly, I submitted a question to his website as to his religious affiliation and received no answer. DOES he have one? And if so, why couldn't I get an answer?
