ParticipantI look at it this way – people fall somewhere in a wide spectrum between “Do-it-yourself” and “Don’t wanna deal with it”
Like anything – construction, for example – if you don’t wanna deal with it, it costs money to have someone else deal with it. And, if you do it yourself, you save alot of money.
To be a do-it-yourselfer, you need both the skills and time to actually do it yourself. I think that very few people have both and so the realtor model will be able to endure. Most people need them.
Of course, this isn’t to say that a small market of do-it-yourselfers doesn’t exist. It does exist, and it can be served by different discounted models, but it is a pretty small market, all things considered.
I suspect that much of the PIGG community has the skills to go without a realtor and so we tend to see the rest of the market as we see ourselves, which I don’t think is the case.

ParticipantAfter a good sleep, I finally got through the whole thing. It made me realize I’m a lesbian trapped in a man’s body.
Which would explain why I think Suze Orman’s hair is so cool.

ParticipantPersonally, I think Suze is awesome.
Like most Piggs, I don’t need her advice, but I think she teaches alot of people about personal finance who otherwise wouldn’t have someone to guide them. Even if her advice isn’t perfect every time for every person, she at least gets “joe sixpack” thinking about personal finance and also acts as a strong influential figure helping “jane sixpack” realize maybe financial independence is a good thing. She has done more good for people in this country than any politician or movie star.
