Recently, I embarked on a journey to teach children about the importance of understanding money. I think it’s important to get them started young. One idea I had was to have them purchase one share of Disney stock and frame it.
As it turns out, some adults were asking me how they could do this as well.

My name is Jason A. Martin and this is my investment blog. Back in Jr. High School I fell in love with an electrical wiring company's stock on Wall Street. After following the stock daily in the papers—the Internet wasn't around back then—I sent them a letter and they sent me back all sorts of wonderful information about their company.
In High School, we had a stock market contest. All the kids were picking companies that made stuff they consumed. When I announced my beloved company, I was laughed at. Little did they know that my company was going to be the subject of a takeover soon.
Long story short, I won the contest and have made money in the stock market, through real estate investing, currency trading and so forth.
I hope you enjoy Financial Rebel. If you do, please leave your comments and share this site with those you know. I also run a currency trading blog over at CapitalistNation.com.
