Student Investor Leaves Peers Green with Envy Mississippi

Being involved in an investment club does not mean you have to be an expert in money management or major in finance.   Carrie Porter is a prime example of how a journalism major at Northwestern University's Medill School can take advantage of having a financial background.

Being involved in an investment club does not mean you have to be an expert in money management or major in finance.   Carrie Porter is a prime example of how a journalism major at Northwestern University's Medill School can take advantage of having a financial background.

As a founder of the Green Envy Investment Club in 2002, Carrie has been active in the organization since her sophomore year in high school and has benefited from her interactions with the club's advisor, Roger Stafford. He believes that, even if Carrie never goes into corporate management, she will benefit from her early exposure to business fundamentals.

The club, which is open to all students in the Mariemont school district, has been a great way for Carrie and her peers to learn more about investing, from being able to visit companies that are prospective investments to being able to combine financial resources to manage a much larger portfolio.

With a focus on finding growth companies with businesses that are understandable to teens, the Green Envy Investment Club tries to locate local companies with executives willing to visit the club. Members then like to pick the brains of these business leaders about their products and services as well as their financial performance and outlook.

Being part of an investment club has allowed members to do things they would not have normally been able to do.
