David Bahnsen of HighTower Advisor's Bahnsen Group chats about the intersection of politics and personal finance, noting that investments are inherently political and that investors can create problems when they choose to invest based more on their political leanings than on a dispassionate view of how current events can and will impact the market. Also on the show, Mark Hamrick of Bankrate.com talks about their survey about whether Americans feel they are better off financially since the last presidential election, Jon Brodsky of Finder US talks about how Americans' savings habits compare with the rest of the world, and Brian Frank of the Frank Value Fund discusses absolute-value investing in the Market Call.
