I’m oddly attracted to the endless stream of #financial radio talk shows peddling “advisory” services.
These snake oil salesmen are simply buying airtime to generate leads (rubes) ready to be frightened for one reason or another into being separated from their money.
My current favorite? The “Wall St. Sweeper” on #WBZ in #Boston.
This guy, who offers “free reviews to the next five callers” is the an obvious charlatan and so, the most entertaining.
