We had a chat with our family friends before few days. They mentioned their one on one discussion with some bloggers who claim themselves to be expert in financial space. These people do charge money for their consultation. When I asked them what did they really learn out of it, I was surprised to see the kind of things that they got as financial advice from these bloggers for which they paid hefty consultation fees.
