Who can you trust? In a day when there are suspicions about everything, Clark Howard shines through as that one person who is always there for you. Is my 401K safe? If I lose my job, where do I get health insurance? Can an Enron happen to me? The choices are overwhelming. Isn't it nice that there is ONE person who can tell you the real deal.

America's leading consumer expert moves quickly through the paralysis of the recent events and dispenses some of the most useful information you can find anywhere. Clark's spirit and optomism provide listeners with a can do attitude to negotiate the troubles in life. Clark empowers his audience to become smarter consumers. His message is resonating across the country reaching more than 3.5 million listeners a week.

"Once armed with the right information and a plan of action, people will discover they have the power to make things right," says Howard. "They just need a little encouragement."

After retiring from his successful chain of travel agencies in 1987, Clark was asked to give advice about inexpensive travel on an Atlanta radio program. His guest appearances were so popular that he was hired to do a full time show.

Providing help and encouragement to embattled consumers is a way of life for Howard. "The best thing I do for those people who take the time to listen is to practice what I preach," says Howard.
