Clark has an amazingly vast scope of knowledge, but seems to be totally ignorant about 3rd party sellers on Amazon, who are responsible for more than half of Amazon's sales. He cannot seem to grasp the difference between those sellers who ship their own products and have their own rules for returns and sellers whose products are STORED AND SHIPPED by Amazon and must abide by the same rules for easy returns that items SOLD AND SHIPPED by Amazon have. He denounces 3rd party sellers too often.
How would we know if the mfr offers an extended warranty? such as toyota or Lexus, I haven't seen or heard of them
Could you all expand on the tax credit and hsa savings etc via Healthcare. gov? I am missing something somewhere, but am self-employed and I assume would be setting up my own HSA. Thanks.

How disappointing Clark, calling yourself WE the employee and aligning with these union rats and praising corrupt scumbag organizations like the UAW. What a shame. You are better than that
I just wanted to chime in and share my thoughts on "The Clark Howard Podcast." It's truly been a game-changer for me when it comes to managing my finances and making informed decisions about my money. Clark Howard's insights and advice have provided me with a fresh perspective on saving, investing, and making the most of my hard-earned dollars. https://wellfound.com/u/parchment-crafters What I really appreciate about the podcast is how Clark breaks down complex financial topics into simple, easy-to-understand terms. Whether he's discussing budgeting tips, investment strategies, or ways to avoid scams, he always manages to make it relatable and actionable. https://disqus.com/by/parchmentcrafters/about/
Excellent, relevant consumer advice without the judgment. Worth a daily listening!
Good podcast and thanks for the tip! In fact, there are many nuances in home renovation and there will always be many things that you want to replace. I started with big things like fixing the roof and laying a new driveway to the house. We then used the rubber crumb driveways found on the site https://safestep.pro/rubber-crumb-driveways/
Your article content is being very much interested, I am very impressed with your post. I hope to receive more great posts.https://www.tellpopeyes.ltd/
Podcast and website are full of helpful facts, advice, and interesting tidbits on a broad spectrum of topics. I appreciate learning ways to make smart financial decisions. Team Clark rocks!
Do you think Clark would be willing to help me by doing a segment on ESOP retirement accounts? I work for a Atlanta area grocery chain for 10 years now and was automatically enrolled in the ESOP plan from the company. I'm 55 and doing a 25% early withdrawal ($5000.00). This is for medical expenses for my wife. I have 20k in my account before the early withdrawal. Thank you Christa.
No you shouldn't get the flu shot. Out of all the vaccines the flu shot is the vaccine that has caused the largest amount of injury including death, the vaccine that the vaccine courts have had to pay out on the most and it only protects you 20-40% if they select which flu virus they are going to put in which is figured in February for Septembers season. The flu vaccine has also been proven to cause other illnesses right after getting the flu shot (not including getting the flu) No way bad bad advice!
Thx dude. Good show
I know that Clark may never see this, but thank you for the acknowledgement of the struggles of truckers. Life on the road was far from glamorous or a paid vacation before the virus, but the struggle has gotten worse. Thank a trucker folks. Thank everyone you see who is still working today. Also, I promise we arent scary. For every irresponsible driver you see on the news or on the road, there are thousands of us who do the best, professional, and skilled job that we can. 🙂
What is the current effectual unemployment rate?
the unemployment identification is a old address problem m pi st people are having.
Love the show helped me get out of debt, buy a house, and start my own retirement plan. My favorite part is when he discuss topics that are going on in the country and world. Best part is he seams like a super nice guy and he treats his own employees like there his family!!!
I have so much respect and admiration for Clark Howard, beyond his financial advice (which I love). If you're local to the Atlanta metro area then you know his work with Habitat for Humanity, foster children and many other kind endeavors. He's really a good person. 💙💚💛💜❤
a goldmine of info!
