I really shouldn’t be doing this when I have a flight to catch in a few hours, but Felix Salmon’s demolition of Galia Gichon’s Mediabistro (finance) class for freelancers is great. Here’s a taste:
No TagsToday I came across one of the most egregious such quacks, in the form of Galia Gichon of Down To Earth Finance. Ms Gichon is teaching a MediaBistro course next week, where, for a mere $65, she will dispense advice on how to “get a grip on debt” and other such staples of the personal-finance pages. Judging by her Q&A on MediaBistro today, however, you’d be better off spending that $65 on getting blotto in the nearest bar. Certainly, any halfways-decent personal finance book will be much cheaper and much more useful.
