I went to a book store and checked the indexes of 5 of Orman's books. The word depreciation was not in the index of any book. Sylvia Porter's MONEY BOOK of 1975 hed depreciation listed 5 times. four of those were about depreciation of automobiles. She said you loose 50% depreciation in 3 years so why doesn't Suze bring this up in her books. She did it on her TV show. Has she been bought by the car companies?

Congrats on the new domain, glad to see some squatter didn't take it.

Hmm, caught a couple minutes of this a few days ago. I gonna have to TiVo it. Those pledge breaks last forever. More frequent but shorter commercial-type breaks would be more effective.

Glad you did this--I DVR'ed this show but I was wishing I could just get the main gist of her ideas because she was doing, in my opinion, a lot more motivational speaking than advice-offering. I really was just looking for a list of things I could do.

Any idea when we do qualify for the free credit reports? I use my tenant-verification service to get copies of my own, but at $20 a pop I usually only get one a year and I'd like to check all 3 of them.

Me too! Thanks for doing it...I was curious as to what her new spin on this topic was.
