Media Literacy Matters
Decoding the Financial News Hype
The financial media spews misinformation and inspires fear and greed, all for the benefit of its advertisers–not you.
Dan calls the authoritative “experts” who opine on the direction of the market and how to pick stock “winners, “naked pundits” because they are emperors with no clothes.
The True Cost of Professional Help
Are Financial Professionals Worth the Price?
The right advisor at the right price for the right client can add significant value. The key is getting those three “rights” right.
Start by understanding the fees (in dollars) you will be charged. Then you will be in a position to select the right advisor for your requirements.
Savvy Life Insurance Strategies

Term insurance is better than no insurance if those premiums are what you can afford.
But Dan exposes a secret the insurance company doesn’t want you to know: On certain types of whole life insurance, from some companies, a few agents will significantly discount their commissions.
That can be a game-changer!
