/dev/null Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 Given the status of the economy and the volitility of the stock market, i've been watching more CNBC lately. Which means more of a chance to see more Maria Bartiromo aka the Money Honey http://www.businessweek.com/investing/insi...iromo_Maria.jpg http://photos.exposay.com/Maria_Bartiromo/...iromo_0kNtr.jpg http://media.cnbc.com/i/CNBC/Sections/CNBC...ria_240x250.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d27/Rick...rtiromo-002.jpg http://www.do-not-sleep.com/maria/images5/...5-4-20-2000.jpg
buckeyemike Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 Ten years ago, yes. But I don't think Maria's aged very well, sadly enough. I think I'll go with , who's now on the Fox Business Network. Or better yet, Robin Meade.

I wonder if the same folks were saying that real estate was fine in 2005. Sounds familiar. Quote (FORTUNE Magazine) – JOE KENNEDY, a famous rich guy in his day, exited the stock market in timely fashion after a shoeshine boy gave him some stock tips. He figured that when the shoeshine boys have tips, the market is too popular for its own good, a theory also advanced by Bernard Baruch, another vested interest who described the scene before the big Crash: "Taxi drivers told you what to buy. The shoeshine boy could give you a summary of the day's financial news as he worked with rag and polish. An old beggar who regularly patrolled the street in front of my office now gave me tips and, I suppose, spent the money I and others gave him in the market. My cook had a brokerage account and followed the ticker closely. Her paper profits were quickly blown away in the gale of 1929."

I got a lot of good advice way back when (market and otherwise) at two bars...Le Cirque 2000 and Wollensky Grill. Sadly, only one still exists (the new Le Cirque is not the same, no matter what anyone says). Wollensky Grill...still my favorite spot.
