Financial Television and Video – Video clips and TV stations about the stock market, financial advice, business finance, loans and credit cards.
The video above is from last year where Suze Orman explained the new credit card laws. She called them “too little, too late” and encouraged people to write their congressmen to speed up the date in which it would take effect.
