And green hair with ripped jeans doesn't exactly fill them with trust. #Person2#: But it's the style now. #Person1#: I realize that, but our business is serving clients and giving them what they want. #Person2#: Of course. #Person1#: Well, they don't want to deal with people who look like that. They want people who look more like yourself. #Person2#: Why is that? #Person1#: Well, they're older, and they don't understand today's fashions. When they see someone dressed like that, warning bells go off. They don't like that style at all, and they don't like dealing with people who dress like that at work. #Person2#: Oh, I see. #Person1#: We used to have a woman here who dressed like that and she was good, very good. But, the clients reacted very negatively when they saw her. Some asked that their account be given to someone who dressed more conservatively. #Person2#: What happened to her? #Person1#: Well, she was a very good employee and we wanted to keep her, so her supervisor called her in for a chat and laid it on the line for her.

#Person1#: Millions of amateur investors like you, have to rely on a dizzying array of financial newspapers, magazines and commentators to get investment information. #Person2#: Yes. It's sometimes scary if you think of the tremendous amount of media we face every day. #Person1#: It's like information overload , not to mention the reliability of these papers and magazines. #Person2#: Which financial magazines and newspapers do you think do the best job of checking facts? #Person1#: Well, for example, The Wall Street Journal is very, very good. Even though it's used on occasion ( as all news organizations are) by CEOs or bankers who leak their mergers in advance in order to get a positive spin. #Person2#: I like to read Fortune. #Person1#: Cood. Fortune is usually ahead of the curve. And Business Week is very solid , too. #Person2#: Where does a broadcast company get most of their information? I hope it's not just from press releases. #Person1#: A good broadcast company usually does far more than press releases. Their people go out and do real reporting, talking to people at the stock exchange , fund managers, analysts, etc. #Person2#: But sometimes when a flimsy report, or even a rumor gets on television , there's going to be a terrible 'echo chamber' effect. #Person1#: You are right about that.
