John Linnemeier

Individual Investor

I'm a writer. The book "How an Average Man Lived an Adventurous Life" is my autobiography. I've spent much of my life traveling and have visited over 125 countries. I may be the only investment manager here who has been nearly killed by elephants three times.

Investment style

I look for fundamentally sound companies with exceptional growth potential. Except for beaten-down issues, the stock must be showing some momentum. I never argue with the market.

How I got started

My father bought me one share of common stock for my 10th birthday, and I've been hooked ever since.

Personal Interests

Travel, hiking, gardening, and reading.
