The whole business to manage your money is made more confusing and difficult because of the arcane terminology and wall street jib rush you hear every day. Youve got to remember that theres an entire industry of people that want you convinced that investing is too hard. The safest thing is to give your money to a pro. Now, maybe that is the right thing for some of you, but if you put in the effort, if you do the homework, the fact of the matter is that many of the pros are just about to your fees. More interested in taking your money than making you money. Look, theyre strong. Theyre like the wizard of oz. They dont want you to understand.

Good afternoon live. I am cory johnson. We are already having fun. We were actually talking about Chris Christie apologizing for firing one of his aides. We were talking about, how is it possible he did not know about the traffic jam and that his aide had caused it. There was a revelation he made meabout it, which light up. It made us laugh harder. Fun laughs. It was good. Can you imagine people caught in traffic thinking that is the day. Ambulances could not get to people who actually needed help. Are jumping in on this. To me, you know, this is the problem with coming out of local politics and then trying to go to national politics. Depending on where youre coming from, local politics may not in fact be consistent with expectations of the country as a whole. There is a high probability the notion of punishing somebody because they did not endorse you in a campaign where you got 75 of the vote, and then punishing ofm on the first five days school, shutting off their access to the only
