   There are currently two that I hate.

One shows a couple in scuba gear lamenting how their brokerage firm didn't tell them how to spend their money. The other is another couple with the same problem.

That "problem" is bad enough, but in both commercials, the wife is the one that "tells" the husband what they are going to do with the money...Paris for one, remodeling for another. 

It doesn't sound very democratic to me, especially when I'm betting that the husbands are the ones that accumulated the money.  (sorry ladies).

	I hated the previous set of commercials, where the wife is the know-it-all, and the husband obviously knew nothing about investment brokers. There's one that ends with the couple quibbling back and forth, and the wife finally says "You're not gonna win this one". I'm pretty sure there's an extended cut of this commercial, where they show the wife holding a mason jar with the man's gonads inside. Just once I'd like to see the man win above all in a commercial.
