  • Trump support and financial mix. No thanks

    A very odd combo of a Trump social network founder talking financials, supposedly focused on happiness. I found it odd and “off”. I don’t trust firebrand politics on any side mixed with financial info.

  • Truth Social, really?

    Honestly, I have enjoyed his segments on Clark Howard, so I subscribed. I am disappointed to read what I have about his money making political interests. Clark Howard is very not political, so I feel a little misled. I don't know what to think about this.
