Should everyone learn DDB?

I look at it like this. Would it be possible for Phil's investment advice to be any worse than his video poker musings?
After years of managing my own portfolio, I turned it over to TDAmeritrade. Got $3500 cash and no fees for the first year. If returns for two quarters are negative, there is no fee. I get a free lunch twice a year with my advisor, the ability to access all sorts of trading classes and more.
I don't actively even follow how it's doing. I honestly don't miss the hours I'd spend researching a possible investment, and it's potential competitors. I trust the hundreds of trained suits doing it for me."

If you are new to investing, your best bet is an index fund. I would never give investment advice without knowing everything I could about your personal situation. Just as in video poker, there is no one size fits all solution.
