Twenty years ago,
Matthew Lesko was working out of his bedroom with one phone line helping
Fortune 500 companies get information on commodities - until Lesko
got bored.
Today, Matthew
Lesko is a best-selling author, appears regularly on network television
shows and travels the country appearing on virtually every newscast
in the top 100 markets. Matthew
Lesko 's stage antics, as well
as his sound consumer advice has made him a favorite guest on Larry
King Live, Good Morning America, The Oprah Winfrey Show, Jay Leno,
Letterman and The Today Show.
Matthew
Lesko 's wardrobe is as much a part of his appeal as his frantic
message - colorful clothes, like his suit covered with neon question
marks, his mismatched bright socks, wild bow ties and a seemingly
inexhaustible collection of eyeglasses in every color of the rainbow.
Lesko
even drives the only Lexus with yellow polka dots. Matthew Lesko loves
his work.
