CNBC’s “The Millionaire Inside”

Erin BurnettI seldom watch television these days.  When I do, I almost always switch to CNBC.  One of the programs I noticed is one you may not have heard about yet.  The “Millionaire Inside” is hosted by Erin Burnett.

Millionaire Inside is “…an exciting series, featuring an unprecedented roster of top money mentors.  With each show, [their] money mentors address a different topic in building and maintaining wealth.”

When I first watched this show, they featured Donald Trump and branded the show as “The Billionaire Inside”.  Erin essentially interviewed Donald in front of a studio audience asking him questions about his businesses, how he became a success, etc.  Since then, the format has changed.

If you visit the Millionaire Inside website, you’ll see a series of topics with celebrity financial gurus such as Robert (Rich Dad) Kiyosaki, David Bach, Loral Langemeier, and many other notable celebrities in the personal financial arena.

This show does not appear to be a regular series.  Instead, it is appears to be a series of special reports.  I suspect CNBC is currently evaluating the popularity and demand for this show.  In the meantime,  if you don’t subscribe to CNBC, you have two options.  First, you can order a DVD from CNBC; it contains the first four episodes.  Second, I recommend simply browsing their website.  The expert money mentors have posted their advice online.

Enjoy!
