In an effort to be responsible on the eve of my furlough, I'm taking my financial health into my own hands. This is nothing sudden; two years ago I made the resolution to take control of my financial education and have been worshiping at the Church of Suze ever since.
But being a marketer, I'm met with a whole other slew of issues:
How can I invest with eTrade when it thinks talking babies are a valid way to sell financial responsibility?
How can I not invest with TD Ameritrade when Sam Waterston, aka L&O DA, is its spokesperson?
Was it Schwab who animated its ads a la A Scanner Darkly? As much as I'd like Keanu to be my doctor (ref As Good As it Gets), my financial advisor? No way.
Well, it's a good thing I make so much money off this blog, by the time I hit retirement I'll probably have enough for a whole refrigerator box.
