The Total Money Makeover is one of the best-selling personal finance books of all time. To celebrate its 20th anniversary, Dave Ramsey is publishing an expanded and updated version.

After selling more than nine million copies of the book, Ramsey has expanded the offering to include his personal finance principles, along with updated statistics about various topics including student loans, mortgages, car loans, and retirement investments and savings.

“The plan is still simple, and millions of people have done it. You can solve your biggest problem with the least complicated finance book out there. It’s the stories of everyday people in TMMO that makes it so powerful and inspiring,” said Ramsey. “They’re the real heroes. Their stories of real-life change are all the proof you need that this stuff really works.”

The book is listed by BookAuthority as one of the 20 best personal finance books ever written and has spent more than 1,000 weeks on best-seller lists. More than 400,000 copies of the publication are sold each year.

New York billionaire John Catsimatidis has resurrected 77 WABC into a talk radio power under his tutelage. And it appears as if his Red Apple Media company may be on the precipice of adding another radio station to its holdings.

While appearing on Sid and Friends in the Morning Monday, Catsimatidis addressed the recent decision by the station to suspend and ultimately cancel the weekday afternoon program helmed by former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

When asked by Sid Rosenberg if Catsimatidis could envision working with Giuliani again, the billionaire wouldn’t close that book but added an interesting tidbit.

“Anything is possible. We’re buying another station soon. We have a letter of intent that’s been sent out. So anything’s possible,” Catsimatidis said. “Never say never.”

The billionaire officially took over 77 WABC on March 1st, 2020 after purchasing the station from Cumulus Media. In addition to the venerable New York news/talk station, the company also owns 107.1 Talk Radio WLIR, which is licensed to Hampton Bays, New York on Long Island.
