This project was mainly started in a roundabout manner, set in progress by the discovery that my employer provided its employees with an E.S.P.P. Scheme. Employee Stock Purchase Plans are a method for companies that have actively traded stocks to reward their employees by allowing them to purchase stock at a reduced rate. Not one to look a gift horse in the mouth I realised this was an effective method of making some money and I first set about investigating stock in my company and then reading about stock in general.
This led me on a merry trip around the Internet, through contradictory advice and confusing terms until I hit the about.com, its Investing for Beginners hub and its author Joshua Kennon.
It was a revelation of information and has set me on my way, forming my goals and planning for years to come. These goals, ideas, plans will be fun to do as well as having a purpose of educating me and hopefully you, the reader.
In times to come I'll put up proper posts about each of those issues in detail, but for now consider it a taste of things to come, both here and on my other articles on my Infobarrel hub.
