How many money honeys does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Who would have thought that there would be on television this category, this trend of personality known as the "money honey?" They're the beautiful girls who give us the financial news and stock numbers on the cable news networks.
It all started with CNBC's Maria Bartiromo (who actually trademarked the "money honey" title a while back) and now it has extended to others as well. There's ABC's Bianna Golodryga (that's her in the pic), who is being touted as the big new money gal, MSNBC's Erin Burnett, Fox Business Network's Alexis Glick, and...well...the entire on-air staff at the Fox Business Network, actually.
But isn't this a little sexest? Why don't they have a nickname for the men of the cable financial world? Your Neil Cavutos, your David Asmans, your Lou Dobbses, your Jim Cramers?
Oh, OK, I think I understand. This is a money honey:

This is not:

It makes sense now.
