Price: $30.00

I think I can land one of these stints but I was wondering what the starting salary would be? Does anyone know?
Really? That can't be right? I am sure they have a bas pay.

Most financial advisor jobs are 1099 - no base pay
you earn what you are worth

If he has a brain because I don't think any of them do.
As far as I'm concerned none of these pinheads look ahead. They don't think..they are just salesmen. I manage my own retirement account and I'm up over $25k in the past 3 months while everything else is going to hell. Now had I listened to my 401k financial advisor I would be down over $40k since January 2008 when I went into ALL CASH ...while my "advisor" laughed at me. Who's laughing now?
If you want you can email me your age, risk tolerance, etc. and I will give you my advice and then you can compare my suggestions to whatever any of these pinheads tell you.
My father is retired and lost over $200k in his IRA because he listened to his Merrill Lynch "expert". Now he calls me before doing anything.
I don't mean to sound like I have some kind of attitude problem...I just don't like these guys at all. They do not do their homework and the overwhelming majority don't know their ass from a hole in the ground. They get paid regardless of if you make money or not plus a lot of their "suggestions" are motivated for backdoor compensations if you know what I mean. I wouldn't give any of these clowns a dime.

You want some serious questions to ask them?
Ask them where they have their own money for starters.
Ask if they think we will enter into an inflationary period..when, and why?
Ask where they see the US$ Index in 6-12 months
Ask where they see gold in 6-12 months
Ask where they see oil in 6-12 months
Ask what their thoughts are on the nationalization of our banks...will it happen and timeframe.
Ask about the big three automakers and if they believe any will go under...when and why?
Ask them what sectors they like best over the next 6-12 months and why?
Ask them what they think about the 2 publicly traded gun stocks (SWHC and RGR)
Ask them what their thoughts are on the global economy and specifically China...will China's growth continue to slow, how much and what does it mean for the U.S.?
Ask them about agriculture stocks...good, bad? and why?
Ask them where they see the Dow and S&P in 6 months
I could go on and on but I know they will have trouble with most of these and just bullchit their way out of it. Now if they're good, they should have damn good answers to ALL of this. I do. I'm not saying they have to be right on everything because that's impossible but they should have a damn clear thought process and some logic to back it up. If wrong, fine...but they need to recognize a wrong call and make adjustments. That's another thing these clowns don't do. They just say "stay the course". Yeah, and go down with the ship. Not with MY money.
Good luck 2U !

President Clinton took America through one of America's best economic times, bush destroyed everything, I think President Clinton and his advisors should be counseling this administration.

Hillary Clinton, Bill's wife, is the Secretary of State, the head of Obama's foreign policy. As such, Bill Clinton's voice also makes an impact, particularly on foreign policy, however it would be bad for inter-administration dynamics for Bill Clinton to be too close an advisor.

Most of Obama's closest advisors (Rohm Immanuel, David Axelrod, etc.) were also in Clinton's administration, so it's not like he's working from scratch.
