About TeenAnalyst.com
A little info about us and how this site came about...

In April 1999, three teenagers from Bourbonnais, Illinois decided to create a print newsletter that would educate teens about the stock market.  Due to rising printing and mailing costs, the teens decided to change the focus from print to the internet.  They figured that the internet would open their idea up to more people; and do so cheaply, too!  It was at that point that TeenAnalyst.com was born.

TeenAnalyst.com's success is half-intended and half-luck. We always wanted to create a website that would educate others our age, but we were pretty lucky that we got in when we did, which was right when the young investor trend began to take off. Now in its fifth year, TeenAnalyst.com has helped educate over 600,000 young investors (and adults) across the country. So you would expect us to have nice, comfortable offices, beautiful secretaries, and money bulging out of our pockets, right?  Wrong!  To this day, the website is still run out of Chris Stallman's 11x12 dorm room at the University of Michigan.  Perhaps someday we'll have a large, spacious office.

Advisory Board

In June 2002, we put together a small advisory board consisting mostly of teenagers. The job of the advisory board is to help guide us in creating a successful site. Anytime we have an issue we'd like an opinion on or are considering adding something new to the site, we ask them. And as you can see in the list below, our advisors come from some of the most prestigious universities in the country. We're quite proud of them. If you're interested in being added to our site as an advisor...join the board!
