Here is a article by a business site that is also Christian based that makes a lot more sense. http://www.businessreform.com/article.php?articleID=10376 You also have to remember, the guy who wrote the first article is a so called "financial flanner" of who most of the ones I have dealt with generally have lining their pockets ahead of the customers needs. For example, crappy insurance products that severely underinsure the customer, and bundles a very poor investment product with a poor rate of return.
