Over time, Ed Slots arguments become so out of touch with reality (arguing for strategies that benefit multi millionaires, as if they were listening to his podcast, and continuously unable to understand why someone considering taking out a loan might be in need of money), that I found myself becoming angered by his arguments. Individuals listening to podcasts for retirement advice are searching for knowledge from those who can understand their situation and perspective and give applicable advice. This is not the place to find that.
