Fools,

The Fool investing books got me into investing. Subscriptions to their products and CAPS helped me grow as an investor. Getting the chance to work there was incredible.

I am just so thankful for The Fool and also what it represents. I don't think I have ever seen a company that is so devoted to its employees and customers.

My thanks to the Fool starts at the Gardner brothers, extends to every employee, and finally to the CAPS community as well. I have been investing for many years now in stocks, but am relatively new to options and am eager to learn more. I posted a question the other day on my blog and quickly had numerous answers from people just willing to help.

The Fool often says it is a community of investors helping each other to beat the market. I couldn't agree more. I often get ideas from fellow CAPS members and use it to track my own thoughts on stocks and share them with others. I truly think this is the world's greatest investing community-- thanks to everyone who helps make it great.

Wishing everyone a happy 4th of July weekend,

Connor

Great post and I agree. I am a young investor but have learned everything I know from this site and its community. I learn so much every day and know I'll continue to.

This site doesn't just reinforce the fundamentals we all know, but it continues to reinforce and introduce new ideas into investing philosophy that aren't talked about nearly anywhere else(I had never heard of ROIC for example before the fool)...options is a great example as well.

Happy 4th of July!
