An Interview with TheHumanist

Last updated: 11/28/2011
The Fool:
Tell us an amusing anecdote about your childhood.
TheHumanist:
This one time, in 1997, my dad and I almost bought 1500 shares of AAPL at 4.50. But his broker said it wasn't going anywhere.

Wait, is this supposed to be amusing or heartbreaking?
The Fool:
Are there any local companies in your area that Fools should consider for investment?
TheHumanist:
GRPN. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA just kidding.

But if you like getting your guts torn out and aren't afraid of holding airlines, United will be around for awhile I think. At the very least, they'll be in Chicago forever.
The Fool:
What's been your best investment to date, and how did you discover it?
TheHumanist:
Long Sirius at $0.35 was a good one, but the thing has been breaking my heart since it's huge run. I found it when my father bought a radio to listen to Howard Stern--like everyone else.
