Suze Orman HATES Fractionals

[F/O]

Of course she said this. She makes a living telling people not to spend money.

she is an owner on the P180 that Avantair flies.

she is an owner on the P180 that Avantair flies.

The article shows her flying in a chartered Beechjet and it lists a charter operator. There is a P180 among other aircraft in a picture in the article - sitting off to the side at PWK or MDW. Unless you have proof, I doubt it because she is so one-sided about her fractional views... She indicated that she flies roughly 100 hours per year for business and she flies Jet Blue and Virgin America for leisure.

I am just reporting what the article says...

I did not know she was giving advice to people who even think about chartering or fractional ownership. I have seen her show a couple times, not a fan, but her advice is basic pilot survival skills. Don't spend more than you make, invest part of your income for retirement, have a cash set aside for 6 months living and plan to be unemployed sometime in your life.

Like someone once said, common sense is not so common anymore. Sound advice that should be intuitive to most people whom possess a sense of innate natural survival. Unfortunately, we're coaxed as a society into spending frivilously to camoflague oursleves from who we really are in an effort to present a misaligned representation of ourselves. In other words, we're driven to social deceit via the wonderful retail media vehicles (advertising in every aspect that includes those doltish fashion magazines as well).

That's the thing about her show that annoys me. It's all common sense. If the average dumb consumer had any we wouldn't need people like her.

common sense in not common

That's the thing about her show that annoys me. It's all common sense. If the average dumb consumer had any we wouldn't need people like her.

There is a shortage of common sense, because it is so easy to ignore. Often the short term benefits of ignoring it out weigh the long term sacrifices needed to came the benefit. She plays to a women thing, of feelings as opposed to logical decision making. The other thing peole tend to ignore is "If it seems to good to be true, it is probalby not true. Things like "My house will increase in value at 25% per year for ever".

it was actually profiled on her show on CNBC. she had "her favorite pilot" on the show and he proposed to his fiance.

he was in uniform and said he worked for avantair. she said she was an owner.

look up the history of the show maybe you can find it.

of course I'm talking logic to people on flight info, how dumb of me.
