An Interview with TMFHobo
Last updated: 1/5/2012
The Fool:
What's your greatest athletic achievement? Little League champ? Ran a marathon? Did 4 consecutive sit-ups?
TMFHobo:
I scored 9 points in a row in the fourth quarter in the high school student-faculty basketball games sparking a comeback victory by the students.
The Fool:
How'd you find out about the Fool? (Make your answer as colorful and truthful as possible.)
TMFHobo:
I'd always seen the name on various websites and found it intriguing. It sounds like it's meant to be a funny website like the Onion or something, but as I became more interested in investing I began to visit more often.
The Fool:
What's the most overrated idea, person, or event in our culture?
TMFHobo:
I think formal education tends to be pretty overrated. We seem to conflate education with intelligence and ability, but really there's a pretty large self-selection bias there. You can be smart without being educated and educated without being smart. The Gardner brothers, who founded the Fool, are notably English majors with no formal training in investing.
