A question for the readers

I agree with Jim’s comment speaking out against the idea that “My generation is the only important one, and you fogies have to adapt to us.” I really feel like this is a false image of Generation Y that has been created by a very vocal, but very minor group of people. As a 26 year old CPA at a big 4 firm, I have not witnessed anything like this. I am really getting sick of people talking about the none-existent millenial movement, and assuming that anyone that doesn’t take your word as the gospel must be an old timer and doesn’t “get it”.

I have read your advice column every week for about 7 months. Sometimes you make good points, and other times you advise completely outrageous ideas like doing Yoga on the bathroom floor (downward facing dog no less). I think a lot of the criticism on Yahoo comes from the fact that no one in their right mind would ever do some of the things you advise. This leads many of us to feel you are just saying crazy stuff to draw attention to yourself and get more hits. How can you act surprised if the Trolls come out?

Yahoo Finance is a reputable website, and the homepage of millions of professionals. I would appreciate it if you took it a little more seriously.

Thanks,

Jesse
