| Hi, Eric here again. You’ve been hearing a lot from me the last few days. Especially today. That’s because I truly want you to gain full control of your financial destiny. I know… you probably have a hard time believing that. After all, you and I have never actually met. So why would I care about your future and the investments you make? I get it. So give me a minute of your time and I’ll explain why I do what I do every day, and why I truly want to make a difference in the financial lives of as many Americans as I can… See, before I joined at The Motley Fool, I worked in corporate finance at Microsoft. It was a nice job. And I learned A TON about what makes a company great. But I didn’t believe in what I was doing. Maybe you’ve been there. Good gig, but not fulfilling. I was also pursuing the Charted Financial Analyst (CFA) certification at the time. While I wasn’t entirely sure where my career would go… I knew I enjoyed helping people with their finances. Anyway, once I started looking for a new job I was soon being courted by some of Wall Street’s most prestigious firms. I’m sure you can imagine the excess… Flights all around the country. Lavish hotel suites. Steak dinners with expensive red wines and extravagant desserts. It only took a couple of those trips for it to hit me: These guys on Wall Street don’t care about helping other people with their money. They only care about getting more to spend for themselves. Let’s be honest: I want to achieve financial freedom and independence too. It’s why I’m an investor. But I’m not willing to squander someone else’s hard-earned money to get there. Sitting with a few of these guys at dinner one night, I knew I didn’t want to live in that world. They were playing a game I wanted nothing to do with. A dangerous game financed by someone else’s hard-earned dime. Your hard-earned dime. That experience led me to The Motley Fool. Talk about a different story! All it took was a few minutes in the office during my first interview for one thing to become abundantly clear… Every last person at this company shares the same passion: To help the world invest, better. That’s our company motto. Lived and breathed in everything we do. It’s why I’m here. Which brings me to the point of this story: As you’ve seen over the last few days the picks David Gardner made during the Internet Revolution of the 1990s and 2000s are now the stuff of legend. AOL… Amazon… Netflix… Priceline… Apple… Talk to David about those picks and he’ll tell you about the unique insights that led him to recommend each. About the special time in history the explosion of the Internet represented. He’ll light up with passion as he talks about the power of technology to change our world… and make investors rich in the process. And there will be so much conviction, excitement, and expertise in everything he says that you’ll find it impossible to not feel chills on your arms as you think about the bright future that awaits you once you team up with such a visionary. But David will also tell you something else, with just a hint of regret in his eyes: A lot of Motley Fool members missed out on the Internet Revolution. Missed out on the chance to turn a few modest thousand-dollar investments into six… even seven figure… nest eggs. And you know what? That’s not their fault. It’s ours. We take full responsibility. If anyone knows how tough a decision like this can be… how choosing to invest in the future can be hard… how uncertainty can cause people to procrastinate until it’s too late… it’s us. I don’t think we urged our readers hard enough back then. Didn’t push them to join us at such a watershed time in stock market history. Look: we truly believe the Internet of Things will be every bit as disruptive, and as profitable, as the creation of the Internet was. And I’ve sworn to do everything I can to make sure we don’t repeat that mistake again. To do everything I can to give you the chance to grab this opportunity with both hands. That’s why you’ve heard so much from me the last few days. One last thing: you probably don’t know this, but I have a newborn daughter. My first child. From the moment I first held her, I knew I’d do anything to give her the best life. That I’d do my best as a father to make sure she gets everything she deserves. Which is why in addition to owning several of David’s IOT picks myself, I’ve already started building positions in them in a portfolio I’ve created just for her. I so firmly believe these stocks are multi-generational wealth-builders I’m giving this gift to my daughter so she can have the best possible future. What I hope will be a true, lasting legacy for my family. I truly hope you’ll join me in giving it the same gift to yourself and the people you care about. David Gardner has my trust. I urge you to give him yours too.
