Welcome to the Clark Howard Show, where it's about your empowerment with knowledge so you

can keep more of what you make.

We have had just the best time doing back to basics, where areas that I'm asked repeated

questions in.

I'm digging deep and we've done a variety of these to this point.

And today I'm talking about travel.

Travel is something I love.

It's how I initially ended up in the media is because I was a travel expert from way

back having had a chain of travel agencies that I sold in the mid 80s.

Eventually ended up giving travel advice in the newspaper on radio, variety of formats,

including television.

And that kind of morphed into what I do now.

I love to travel.

I've been to every continent except Antarctica.

I've been to every state except North Dakota.

Now to those of you in North Dakota who have continually been upset that I've not been.

I recently on clearance got a North Dakota state university sweatshirt and a university

of North Dakota sweatshirt.

So at the very least, if I haven't made it yet, at least I can wear the sweatshirts.

But I'm coming.

I promise coming picking up the 50th state.
