Suze Orman Approves Dog Cloning. Reluctantly.

I have to say that I do like Suze Orman...with the exception of her hairstyle....she is a no nonsense woman who knows finances. So when I came a crossed the article below I wish I had actually heard what she had to say to this guy who wants to spend $100K to clone his dog! The dog must be special to him however I don't believe memories can be cloned or love or devotion....so to me it would be a real waste of money...what are your thoughts?

Suze Orman Approves Dog Cloning. Reluctantly.

Posted by Osagie Obasogie


Financial guru Suze Orman has made quite a name for herself over the past few years as America's advisor on matters of money. With an award winning show on CNBC, numerous New York Times best selling books, and a regular on Oprah, Orman's penny-pinching advice is gaining traction, particularly during this recession.

Orman's niche is to use plain-spoken common sense to berate people into saving money, investing conservatively, and living within their means. Which is why she had such a hard time with a call in viewer who wanted to spend $100,000 on cloning his dog.

During the "Can I Afford It?" segment of her show, viewers can call in and tell Orman what they want to buy - from an Iguana Sunroom to a pet squirrel monkey - and Orman reviews their finances to either "Approve" or "Deny" their request. The viewer wanting to clone his Great Dane T.J. had no debt and a fair amount of equity in a million dollar house, leading a squeamish Orman to "approve" this purchase despite her obvious discomfort.
