Just caught a snippet of her show wherein she extoled the virtues of pre-nuptuals even if you don't have money in preparation for the time when your soon-to-be-ex decides to run up a secret credit card, particularly in a community property state. I like the way she's thinking. My pre-nuptual allegedly protects my 401k. Wonder if it'll hold up should the unforeseen happen (I know, God forbid).

» Q_out - AM Radio too

She's now started a radio show in Chicago that comes on Saturdays for three hours after the Brink. http://wlsam.com/showdj.asp?DJID=12000

She took a call last weekend from a woman who's husband wanted to cash out the equity of their home for an uncertain purpose "because rates are so low". Since the couple kept all their accounts separate except for the house, the wife would be left with the responsibility for half the mortgage and have none of the equity should something happen to their marriage.

Suze gently and wisely told the woman not to sign the loan papers and to seek marriage counseling instead. She also suggested that the woman make sure she knew the location of all of her husband's assets.

» mdorsey - Suze has an idae to make all tax deferred

investment plans tax free to make up for the losses in the stock market caused by CEO fraud. She is on the radio (WLS) spouting that and other government bail-outs.

Even though I would benefit in a large way idea this is too much government in the worst way.

Too bad her show conflicts with Moneytalk. She might make an interesting host.

Sure, why not?

She was on tv recommending QQQ about the same time as that host was.

She does already have a caller show on CNBC.

In response to message posted by KLR:

from March 2002:
I think that we'll have at most an 8-percent gain in the S&P 500.

I think you'll see the Fed funds rate increase from its current 1.75 percent to between 2 percent and 2.5 percent. Alan Greenspan did not lower rates in January, which means that the lowering of rates is probably over for now.

How funny. This was written in March of 2002. Fun to look back at the predictions of people and how lame they can be.

In response to message posted by :

Orman should stick to advising people how to balance their checkbooks. Her advice about paying down debt is solid, as is her advice not to buy whole life insurance and variable annuities. But she can only go so far advising on those issues and can only repeat herself so many times before she gets stale. Enter her financial show where she makes uneducated predictions on the stock market and interest rates. Suze should be listened to on what she knows best, how to be fiscally responsible--and ignored on the rest. I've read her book and it's sensible because it makes no predictions on the market and encourages saving more than risk-taking. She should stick to the subject of her book.
