What do you need to know before buying tech this Black Friday and holiday season? Bridget Carey from CNET joins us with what’s hot in televisions, the connected home, game consoles, and more. In our headlines, we can’t get away from Trump-related headlines, so we tackle two: the first about the stock market and the second about interest rates.
In our Haven Life Line segment, we take a call from Bill who wants to know about taking out a mortgage. How should he attack his debt to get his debt to equity ratio in order? Plus we take your letters, reveal some Thanksgiving-related trivia from Doug, and much more.
