As a personal finance columnist myself, I must tell you that your Wall Street Journal columns were the best of the best. I followed them for years. You presented crucial concepts; then made them completely understandable through examples. As for the sophistication of your readers: Your editors made the error of assuming people with a lot of money are sophisticated about investing. I took calls and emails from thousands of readers over the years and found most people -- regardless of income and education -- ill equipped for investing and often desperate for reliable help about planning their future. You have always helped these people. Great job!
