<Everyone needs a question answered sometimes. Often, novices are afraid to ask questions. When money is involved, it is much better to ask a question and feel 'foolish' than not ask it and BE foolish. Novices need to know that most people on SI will take the time to answer a honest question if civilly asked. If they are still uncomfortable asking questions, they need to learn to use the 'Private Message' system.>

I don't care how smart or experienced anyone is, everyone has a "stupid" question that needs to be answered. I consider myself to be very experienced, yet will never fail to ask a question regardless of how it may be perceived. The same goes for many Wall Street analysts, bankers and lawyers. Curiosity is the path to knowledge.

If anyone is interested in asking me any questions about investing, I will try my best to give an honest and useful answer.
