Motley Fool
Founded in 1993 in Alexandria, Va., by brothers David and Tom Gardner, The Motley Fool is a financial-services company dedicated to helping the world invest--better. Reaching millions of people each month through its website, books, newspaper column, television appearances, and subscription newsletter services, The Motley Fool champions shareholder values and advocates tirelessly for the individual investor. The company's name was taken from Shakespeare, whose wise fools both instructed and amused, and could speak the truth to the king -- without getting their heads lopped off.
