My name is Jordan Shaw and I have been an investor in the stock market for 20 years. I have a MBA and I am currently a Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Since the age of 16 I have taken a keen interest in the stock market and used my fathers stock account to purchase my own stocks. I am 36 now, and have started this blog to give you my advice on stocks. Most of my information and statistics come from other sources, but using my research I can make suggestions on stocks that have potential.
A "sin" stock you don't want to miss out on
