One major driving force behind people’s propensity to follow the crowd is TV and
         Radio: “Talking heads.” Millions of people view the financial commentators that

         proliferate our media as investment gurus. What people fail to realize is that the
         media personality’s number one job is to sell airtime and their book. They have no
         idea who you are or what your specific needs are. Generic information is ok as

         long  as  you  realize  that  it  will  never  be  sufficient  to  address  your  unique
         requirements.



         Suze Orman is perhaps one of the best gurus at providing generic cookie cutter

         information.  Before  you  crown  her  as  the  Queen  of  Finance,  please  Google
         “Questions Suze Orman - New York Times.” In the article, she was asked if she

         invests in the stock market. Interestingly, she revealed that she only has 1 million
         dollars in the stock market because if she loses it she does not personally care.



         Now, this is the very same person who is regularly advising the general public to
         put  their  hard-earned  money  at  risk  on  Wall  Street. At  the  time  the  article  was

         produced, she had an estimated 25 million dollar liquid net worth and 7 million
         dollars in real estate.



         I would encourage you to learn what the wealthy do with their money and walk

         away from the 95%!
