New York Times rips Suze Orman

Harry Hurt III of the New York Times ripped into Suze Orman's new book Women & Money: Owning the Power to Control Your Destiny. He begins with this attack:

Among the substances that need hazmat warning labels are the liquid that bronzes Suze Orman's hair, the paste that whitens her teeth for her publicity photographs, and her latest financial advice manual, "Women & Money: Owning the Power to Control Your Destiny."

While Mr. Hurt is certainly entitled to his opinion, he is, as he freely admits, not the target audience. On Amazon.com, the 48 reviewers so far have given the book an average 4.5 stars (granted they also gave Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki's book an average of 3 stars when 1 star would have been generous).

The point is: if the book doesn't appeal to men, who cares? It's like Elton John dismissing Playboy as boring.
