You'd be crazy not to share in this one! - 23/6/00 Rye, Hastings and Battle Observer
Former Thomas Peacocke Community College student Alan Green could become the next dot com millionaire with the launch of an innovative new business and web site. Internet whiz kid Alan has set up a website with a difference - Sharecrazy offering information to people who fancy dabbling in the stock market. But those who click on also get a free stake in the company, (www.sharecrazy.com) which gives tips and information on shares.
Alan Green said: 'As far as I know, no other share information website is offering people who click on to the site a stake in the firm for free! People must be members of an investment club to take advantage of the offer. But there's nothing to stop two or more share investors starting one. Members of investment clubs will have to post tips, comments and news at least twice a week to be eligible. That information, by such experienced punters is going to be like gold dust to share pickers everywhere. It will make the Sharecrazy website irresistible to anybody hoping to make real money on the stock markets.'
Alan now trades from Brighton, but has strong links with the Rye area and his parents still live in Northiam.
He said: 'Initial interest in the company has been incredible. It is very encouraging'.
The Sharecrazy website also has links through to a top online broker, a daily information column, electronic stock alerts to your mobile phone or email, all the big financial news stories and lots more for the armchair tycoons.
Details of the scheme are posted on the site on the home page, Investment Club forum and under the UK and World Wide Share Information areas of the site.
Sharecrazy have also teamed up with Hove based Stock Alerts, (www.stockalerts.co.uk), an easy to use web based application which monitors the value of your stocks (traded on most major international markets) and provides unlimited email alerts free of charge.
Stock Alerts can also simultaneously send the alert to your pager, cellular phone or similar handheld device. Current markets covered : UK, US, Germany, France, Australia, Canada and Italy. Further markets are coming soon.
