This was a major discussion point for the NCFBA a few weeks back and it also came up in the past week which all started with a Guest Post on THE Canadian Personal Finance Site.

The Guest Post was from a client who was looking to post something that would lead more folks to their website, and thus the post Why You Need to Consider Lifestyle in Your Retirement Planning, which seemed fairly innocuous to me, if not a bit boring, but nothing to get excited about.

It does, take a look at Lady Gaga, the antithesis of boring. She's controversial and she's one of the most influential celebrities in the world.

In my own opinion, being controversial may not sell if you didn't have enough proof to back it up.

Thanks for sharing :)

Controversy could sell, if you are true to your ideas. I am a contrarian, going against mainstream opinion. ;)

I wonder if the blog carnival thing has jumped the shark...
