This is the insane peculiarity of this world. People will research what kind of washer/dryer to buy for months and haggle for hours to get the best deal, but they trust their life savings with completely strangers after a 5 minute sales pitch or a off hand stock tip.
The fact I am a Wharton graduate shouldn't give you any additional confidence over doing your own research. In the end, it's your money.
Let's just say the entire financial services industry is a complete and utter waste of money. There is literally nothing to know other than:
1) Invest in stocks, not gold, not bonds, not CDs, not annuities, or any other nonsense.
2) Never lose capital

Soooo, what I hear you saying is "buy AAPL", right?
