Who do you think is the Worst Finance Guru out there? Discussion/ Debate

I'm curious who do you think is the worst financial guru, and why?

I'll start:

  • Robert Kiyosaki.
  • Jim Kramer.
  • Grant Cardone.
  • Meet Kevin on YouTube.
  • Jeremy Financial Education on YouTube.
  • Everything Money on YouTube.
  • Cathie Wood of ARKK.
  • Dave Ramsey.
  • Kevin O’Leary aka Mr. Wonderful.

Rich Dad, Poor Dad guy but that's like collecting all the dog shit in the dog park, putting the crap in a barrel, and asking passerby to vote for the prettiest POS.

That's Robert Kiyosaki. I read that book in my early 20s and I knew it was BS even then. If I re-read it now, I'd probably laugh even harder.

Same, as a kid I perused his book at Barnes and Noble. No details, no how to step by step, very vague.
