Clark needs to apologize
For years Clark had told everyone to stay away from variable annuities. Whenever a caller would state that an advisor recommended one he would sound his alarm and tell them not to do it, that they should just buy an index fund because it's a lot cheaper. What he never discussed was what you get for those annuity fees. When the market imploded a year ago, many people in index funds had their retirement dreams shattered. Those with annuities had a guaranteed income stream that would never decrease or run out. Clarks glaring ommision of the benefits of annuities cost a lot of people their only shot at a decent retirement. All he talked was the cost of these benefits. Did you all know that your mortgage would be cheaper if you eliminated that pesky homeowners insurance policy from the escrow payment? That's basically what Clark told you to do with your nest eggs and it blew up on him big time. Clark, you've saved a lot of people a little money on plane tickets and cell phone bills but you've cost a few people their chance at a dignified retirement.Read full review »

I was a subscriber for a long time, but am turning it off due to the need they felt to cram in the commercial at the beginning. Too bad.
