Great piece for high school age and college age people. Older people will benefit also because, while some might feel that the piece is stating the obvious, sometimes the obvious needs to be restated. The information is presented with such energy and great music that it will catch anyone's ear.
This piece is supposed to be a guide for people on how to save money. It is well written, well recorded, well spoken, and the added background music is a nice touch. However I feel what the producer/narrator/speaker has told us is not remotely helpful. The speaker could have gone further and made it into a sort of feature that way, we, the listners could actually get something out of it, or said something we did not know anyway. It is not all that worthwhile to state things that are incredibly ovious, such as,you should open up a savings account, I'm sorry but everyone knows you can save money by opening up a savings account rather than hiding your money in a tin can and burying it in your back yard. Next time give us information we can actually use, and will actually help us, rather than information we already know.
Fucking great! I love this! I wish all the advice I got came from a voice this damn sexy. This was helpful to me. Why aren't ad campaigns full of great voices and ideas like this instead encouraging people already riding high in SUVs to check their tire pressure and wear a seat belt? This is common sense related in a nonoffensive, non condescending way. The progenitors of breakbushoff.com would be proud.
