The 2008 TIME 100 Finalists
Read about the leaders, artists, enterpreneurs and thinkers who, in your opinion, deserve a spot on this year's TIME 100 —Scott Brown and Michelle Kung
AGE: 56
OCCUPATION: Personal finance columnist and host of CNBC's The Suze Orman
Show
NUMBER OF TIME COVERS: 0
PREVIOUS APPEARANCES ON THE TIME 100: 0
PRO: With her tough-love, Dr. Phil-ish approach to finance — an approach targeted chiefly at women — Orman preaches "self worth equals net worth." She announced on Oprah that her latest tome, Women and Money, would be available for free on Oprah's website for 33 hours. Over one million people downloaded it.
CON: That doesn't seem very smart, especially from someone who badgers women for "giving too much away."
