The airwaves are filled with financial advisors (like us). How do you know which are likely to do the best job? The fees they charge can tell you a lot. Investigative journalist, Seth Hettena joins us to talk about how much listeners to Ray Lucia’s popular show might end up paying for investing advice. We also explore commodities investing, and discover some academic investment research that may be tainted... by money. Say it ain’t so!

NOTE: As mentioned on this week’s show; always check the fees charged by investment advisors via the firm’s Form ADV, Part 2. This form can be found at http://www.adviserinfo.sec.gov. Just type in the firm name and when their page loads, scroll down the left column to the “Part 2 Brochures” link.
