| Author Notes: | Ben Stein can be seen talking about finance on Fox TV news every week. He is known to many as a movie and television personality, especially from Ferris Bueller's Day Off and his long-running quiz show, Win Ben Stein's Money. But he has probably worked more in personal and corporate finance than anything else. He has written about finance for Barron's and The Wall Street Journal for decades. He was one of the chief busters of the junk bond frauds of the 1980s, has been a long-time critic of corporate executives' self-dealing, and has written self-help books about personal finance: How to Ruin Your Life, ISBN 1-56170-974-3; and How to Ruin Your Financial Life, ISBN 1-4019-0241-3. He frequently travels the country speaking about finance in both serious and humorous ways, and has been a regular contributor to the AARP's Modern Maturity (now AARP: The Magazine). He lives in Beverly Hills, CA.
