    Question:

    I have a friend who, from about 1982 or so until 2000 did a stock market analysis newsletter. She stopped at that time because she couldn't handle how big it was getting. Fast forward to around 2003, she's working at MD Anderson and we meet while riding a vanpool to work together. As I got to know her, not knowing about the newsletter and wanting to get into investing more, she started giving me little tricks and tips. I didn't (still don't) understand a lot of what she was telling me, but I listened and was fascinated. I applied what she was telling me to do and have done pretty well.

    Recently, she was commenting on not being happy with work and I asked her why she never thought about doing some sort of stock market analysis newsletter and making a living with that. She said she used to do just that (first I'd heard of it), and gave me the aforementioned reasons for why she gave it up.

    Well - I offered to help her run the business side of it and take that pressure off of her if she wanted to start it again. She has decided to do so, and is very excited to start it up again. Her old clients have signed on, and now I'm trying to help expand her client base.

    MY QUESTION IS:

    Before I step on any toes, is it appropriate to give out the email here and see who is interested in receiving some information about it?

    I know this is a long explanation, but I don't want to ruffle any feathers either, so I thought I'd ask first.

    Thanks everyone.

    I'll send Clutch a message.

    I probably should've thought of that first. :)
