ECONOMISTS AND FINANCIAL CONSULTANTS

There are few really wealthy economists! You would think that if they knew so much about economics and making money that they would at least know how to get filthy rich.

Finance consultants who sell investments and financial advice may be risky advisors. "Fee-only" financial planners may actually offer more trustworthy advice while those who sell investments may steer you toward what they sell possibly duping you into believing they are offering you the best advice! If they earn a commission on the advice they give you, BEWARE!
