Hi Sweepsplayer,
Of course everyone's situation is different. And I would like to qualify that no one should depend on only one source of information for *anything*. That applies to listening to just one doctor when your health is at stake, or getting only one point-of-view when your financial future is at stake. Today, you have to be your own best expert on just about everything you're seriously interested in. And that means getting informed from every source you can find.
I like Suze Orman for many reasons, but most of all because she was responsible for getting me (a woman of all things!) interested in knowing more about (what is for many) a very dry, and seeminly complicated subject: Finances!
:
Having said that, I am now hungry for knowledge. I read every news article, every financial column I can read off the internet, the IBD that my husband subscribes to...anything I can get my hands on that will broaden my knowledge about anything having to do with finances and saving money.
This has been a big step for me. One I probably wouldn't have taken had I not come accross Suze while perusing Yahoo Financial. She just made it so clear to me - I had to know more!
But I wouldn't say she is doing anyone a disservice. The knowledge is out there for the taking. It's our choice whether to use it or lose it.
