LRHGuy - Web Finalist

A three-year plan for our Motley friend would be quite foolish. Beyond the obvious activities, such as foolish investing, the fool will have to forge new ground with innovative ideas in an as of yet unseen frontier.

As soon as no one is watching, the fools will organize themselves, and be publicly traded. To the amazement of the casual observer, but not the Foolish follower, the stock will rise to become one of the four, allowing our Motley friends to not only invest in themselves, but to be futher and Foolishly lusted after by other apostles of the Fool's philosophy. Would it not be a dream come true to be able to own a piece of the Fool that urges us to be so foolish?

King Jester, realizing the importance of communication with his subjects, will use satellites to transmit up-to-the-second information throughout fooldom. Receivers, organically implanted between the brain lobes of each tribute paying jester-in-training, will decrypt data and place it directly into the thought processes. We would never again be able to claim we missed a foolish opportunity because we'd always be informed!

Finally, the Motley Fool and the foolish ideas he spreads, will become known worldwide, like Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy! Children will put stock certificates under their matresses, waiting for them to be blessed overnight by the Motley Fool and grow in value. Parents will tell their children stories of how the Motley Fool's unwise philosophy helped them to make Foolish decisions about the family portfolio. Children will dream visions of jesters wearing ballcaps and dancing the dance of the dow. Great joy will be known all over Fooldom, and profits will be found in all brokerage accounts.

On second thought, maybe that's just too Foolish.
