Ten years ago, yes. But I don't think Maria's aged very well, sadly enough.

I think I'll go with Liz Claman, who's now on the Fox Business Network.

Or better yet, Robin Meade.

I was pissed when Liz left CNBC. Something about redheads. Woof!

Erin Burnett is WAY better than Maria....

That's exactly what the world needs - getting financial info from people in a bar. I wonder if the same folks were saying that real estate was fine in 2005.

(FORTUNE Magazine) – JOE KENNEDY, a famous rich guy in his day, exited the stock market in timely fashion after a shoeshine boy gave him some stock tips. He figured that when the shoeshine boys have tips, the market is too popular for its own good, a theory also advanced by Bernard Baruch, another vested interest who described the scene before the big Crash:

"Taxi drivers told you what to buy. The shoeshine boy could give you a summary of the day's financial news as he worked with rag and polish. An old beggar who regularly patrolled the street in front of my office now gave me tips and, I suppose, spent the money I and others gave him in the market. My cook had a brokerage account and followed the ticker closely. Her paper profits were quickly blown away in the gale of 1929."

Another good thing: My weekly piece of junk mail from GEICO has dwindled to just once a month.
