Us, too. We watch Suze as a family and it has been very educational for my teen daughter (at least I hope so). That's why we love the Can I Afford It? segment when people call in and say what they want to buy and then list their finances. Some callers are in great shape and can easily afford the purchase but many others are totally clueless. It is sad but, admittedly, also entertaining to hear the stories.
