Listening to the TV news anchors discuss about ISA investments and other types of investments during this time of recession is very frustrating for me. It’s not that I don’t like investments, in fact, I love investments and I have been making a lot of money off them most of my life. Unfortunately, things have turned for the worse here in the United States, and it doesn’t look like it’s going to let up very soon. What ticks me off is that these people in the news all look very fancy and knowledgeable in what their saying that people don’t notice that they’re merely winging it out there. They don’t know half of what they’re saying at all. What would a news reporter know about investments anyhow? People like myself, who’ve been in the business for years, have barely scratched the surface of the meaning of the word in its entirety. Now these guys on television are trying to convince me that they know something about it. Talk about not qualified. Watching this makes me doubt their opinions on other matters as well.
