Listen readers, I have been a CFP financial advisor for 20 years, don't listen to these clowns handing out “DOWN HOME” advice from real people to real people.

IF you were sick, would you like to get treated by a doctor or your “DOWN HOME” neighbor who has read books on remedies.

STOP being suckered by unemployed nobodies who don't know FINANCE if it hit them in the face. I have had meetings with many so-called amateur financial experts, they are MORONS! Majority of them don't know what the heck they are talking about!

YOU ARE A FRAUD!!! Anybody can open a blog and become a financial writer. YOU ARE A JOKE!!
