Customer Reviews
Easy to understand
and to the point. These don't get too technical either. Just some good, simple, easy to handle advice.
Are People Getting Dumber?
It seems as if they are. This podcast is an example of the vast sea of contentless babble floating around on Internet, TV, and radio. People seem to want to have a podcast or go on TV or radio, but have nothing to say. The presenters claim to have MBAs, but their "information" is so obvious that one wonders if their claim is even true. They bring up brilliant insights such as, "Everyone should have a budget. You can do a budget on paper or software or--even on the web." Wow! Amazing. Thank God I tuned in. I listened to three episodes, and each time they would blather along on utter obviousness and get to the end and say, "Well, we hope this information was useful to you." What information? You never got beyond naming a topic! And that took you 30 minutes.
Is there ANY frugality podcast that actually has some content? I am hoping for an audio equivalent of the "Tightwad Gazette" books that actually gives practical information--a content!
Great podcast!!
This is a very informitive podcast. Keep up the good work !
