It appears that the directory permissions for your ~/.cpan directory
tree are not correct. You need to fix that, then try running "cpan
Finance::Quote" again.
sudo chown -R me /Users/me/.cpan
Of course change "me" to your actual username. To be thorough,
sudo chown -R me:group /Users/me/.cpan
Where "group" is your primary group. If you don't know this, not to
worry and skip this.
After running "chown", execute "cpan Finance::Quote" again. If you have
CPAN-minus installed you can also try "cpanm Finance::Quote".
