    gambling?

    All CD's are zero commission with Fidelity versus the $100 they'll nick off you for $100K worth of a bond purchase. something to keep in mind when looking for a parking spot.

    btw, Suze O is always good for a few laughs. she certainly makes a great living with inane and blatantly obvious comments. But whats with her skin? It looks orange on my TV

      New issue GSE at Fidelity are sold at par with no commission but I'm sure one is paying anyway thru price.

      A couple of years ago was able to match up some Fidelity CDs with some rates shown on bankrate.com and Fidelity was about 1/4 lower. Did a quick look today but couldn't match any of them.

      Suze sure has made a good living dealing with the simplistic but that's show biz. I think we all would be a lot better off if the financial babbling world was simplified by eliminating/banning a lot of the overcomplicated structures which appear to have only one purpose that is to enable the crooks.

        Every guest on CNBC should be required to state 5 trades for a 4 week time frame that a retail investor can realistically initiate (no 6 month Ero vs Yen foward swaps). At the end of that period, if 3 out of 5 are winners they should be invited back for a second go-around, otherwise ban them forever.

        A person with a few consecutive appearances should get a regular spot. They really need to get rid of the current riff-raff who speak many words and say nothing

      it's either that fake tan stuff or she's been rolling around in a giant bag of Cheetos(kind of a kinky west coast thing).
