“I’m not talking about pre-approval. I’m talking about brainstorming”.

...”financial decisions” in your home aren’t ego driven. You’re also not ad libbing your finances. Everything Rush says is ad libbed. There are no scripts, just general knowledge of a subject and off he goes.

I was a radio talk show host for 25 years. There are thousands of us running around that you only know of if you live in the same city. And even as a small timer compared to Rush, I was totally responsible.

Rush is a unique talent surrounded by “lackey’s” who just want to say they work with Rush. Technically they’re very good and great with research and getting a cup of coffee for Rush. They have nothing to do with what is said on the microphone.

Are you saying Rush doesn’t bounce ideas off anyone? That’s a bit nutty, isn’t it. I mean, for a local guy, fine. And for quick off the cuff stuff, likewise. But coming out with a comment that you KNOW is going to stir the pot, that requires a bit more reflection and planning a few moves ahead - even for a talented person.

BTW, I considered pursuing a career in talk radio. After researching what the job actually involved, I ran away from it like I did when I was 18 and considered being a long haul truck driver...
