Summary

Dave Ramsey contends that lacking generosity in any area stunts people's growth, as integrity drives the most successful. He recounts a story that a Baptist pastor shared with him that tithers never divorce, believing unselfish money mirrors unselfish spouses. Ramsey explains stingy mindsets breed dishonesty across life, while giving builds trust and creativity essential for progress. He underscores that character begets character, urging nurturing universal generosity as it compounds beyond finances.

0:07.0	What do you think happens to people that never give that they just earn for themselves
0:16.9	or they keep it in their business and they only put it back in their business but
