If you would be interested in being interviewed, I would encourage you to read her message below and then contact her. Best Regards, Jeff - list admin / owner - --- Forwarded mail from Danialle Weaver <danialle@mindspring.com> Date: Tue, 5 May 1998 11:43:41 -0400 (EDT) To: jeff (Jeff Salisbury) From: Danialle Weaver <danialle@mindspring.com> Subject: need feedback/trading styles Jeff-- My name is Danialle Weaver and I am a freelance writer who contributes to the CyberInvesting column of the Wall Street Journal Interactive Edition. Occasionally, Ira would post queries from me to your list, and I was wondering if you'd be kind enough to do so for me also. I'm testing out a theory that there are three kinds of investors: advice-hungry (beginners and high-net worth individuals) who gravitate toward full-service brokers, information-hungry (market-savvy individuals and some novices) who seek value-added info, who use chat rooms and bbs services who gravitate toward discount brokerages, and transaction-hungry (individuals with significant trading experience and high risk tolerance) who gravitate toward deep-discount brokers.) I am looking for folks to interview for my story who believe they fall into one of these categories to tell me which brokerages they favor and why. I would need to talk to them by May 12. Typically, this would require revealing the interviewee's real name, age, occupation and hometown, although other arrangements can be made with sources as warranted. My editor also requires me to talk on the phone (at least once, however briefly) with investors, so that we can be more certain you're not a 10-year-old masquerading as a stock trader. If your folks would like to check me out first, please have them point their browsers to http://www.bigfoot.com/~danialle (no trailing slash and watch the spelling). This page has a bio, resume, photo and numerous stories I've written before. Thanks for your consideration.
