Suzie Orman – New American Dream

[briansd1]

[quote=UCGal]I find Suzie Orman annoying… mainly because I don’t like her voice. And her callers are even more annoying.

I agree. I hate her style.

I would rather listen to Bob Shiller, or Paul Krugman or the Charlie Rose show. Yeah, I know, boring.

I have a close friend who is a joe-six-pack who likes Fox News and Suze Orman because of the ranting and raving entertainment factor.

Suze Orman does good in that she gives good advice and she’s able to get through to people. When Suze Orman said “walk-away from underwater houses” a light bulb lit up in my friend’s brain. Now he looks up friends’ houses to see who should walk away. We have a mutual friend who bought a house in Maryland, outside DC at the peak. That guy should clearly walk-away.

Overall, we are better off with Suze Orman on TV. It’s interesting that Oprah was her mentor. Obviously, Oprah knows how to get through to people.

You can default on your credit cards. You cannot default on your student loans.

I’d say it’s sound advice.[/quote]

again, I suppose ultimately who is the target audience?

I don’t think this would apply to any piggs. as I don’t think any piggs will be in a position in trying to decide whether to default on credit card vs student loan. but then again, I doubt any piggs have credit card debts…

[quote=UCGal]For me, the cool thing about it is that I will no longer be a wage slave if I can reduce my expenses by having no debt. It takes a lot less to get by on if you don’t have the 2 big payments (mortgage & car loan) to factor into your budget. That’s freedom.[/quote]

I disagree. With rising health care costs and rising food prices, not having mortgage & car loan doesn’t equal to freedom.
