"Chairwoman Yellen, I think you should sit down with your Nobel Prize winning husband, economist George Akerlof, who is known to be consumer-sensitive," Nader, 81, wrote in an open letter published in the Huffington Post.

Nader also recommended that Yellen -- the Fed's first female Chair -- speak to one of her former male colleagues at the University of California, Berkeley, to get a better grasp on her job.
