'Author Shares City tips with millions - from his own sitting room'
WESTERN TELEGRAPH - 23/04/03

Private share investors from all over Britain are turning Tenby into a busy financial centre. A free shares website attracting 2 million hits a week jointly founded by best-selling author Malcolm Stacey resident in Crackwell Street. Called ShareCrazy.com, it has rapidly become a popular forum for private investors in Wales and all over the world. To keep dealing costs down for shareholders, the website also does a share dealing service at low commission rates. Malcolm, who now spends most of his time helping investors on the site, has written a book on making money from shares called 'Armchair Tycoon'. Before this venture, Malcolm was for many years a presenter of BBC Radio Four's 'You and Yours' programme. He has also been a TV reporter, radio disc jockey and schools TV presenter. He has written seven books - including 'Super scrooge' (on saving money), 'Winning Ways' (how to be popular) and 'Attishoo' (the story of the common cold). About three years ago he gave up London life to help run ShareCrazy.com from his sitting room in the middle of Tenby. He said

"ShareCrazy was launched because we realised private shareholders have absolutely nobody to represent them in the City…

"Much to my surprise, it has been hugely successful. We now have more viewers than many popular TV programmes…

"Thousands of people from all over the UK put on messages advising each other which shares to buy and voice their comments about the shoddy way private shareholders are treated in this country."
