My name is Hans Wagner and I began investing in high school and have remained active in the markets. A graduate of the US Air Force Academy with an MBA majoring in Finance from the University of Colorado, I continued to invest throughout my career in the US Air Force, Bank of America, Coopers & Lybrand, and working for Ross Perot before retiring at 55. During that time I have gained a very good understanding of what works and what doesn't. I hope to impart that knowledge to others so they can achieve financial independence as well.

The idea for this site came from our children and their friends as they graduate from college and begin their career.  While they were successful in school, they do not understand the basics of investing and are unprepared to invest in the stock market. They will need to learn to invest so they can buy their first home, see their children through college (it will cost much more then), and have a sufficient nest egg for retirement (pensions are going away and Social Security will be in trouble).  This effort to help people create wealth for themselves requires us to keep your issues and concerns foremost in our mind.  We strive to be accurate, but you should always double check whatever you see here.

We seek to create the best, most coherent and logical stock market investing and education site.  Along the way we hope it is fun as well.  Our goal is to help people to successfully invest in the stock market and then encouraging them to make this world a better place with their success. We value you as our clients and will never sell, distribute or use any of your private information.  Your information belongs to you.

We donate 10% of the revenue that is generated through this web site to educational organizations that seek to help the world's disadvantaged overcome poverty.

Thank you for your interest and support.  Here's to your success in creating wealth and then doing something worthwhile with it.
