Chris Lahiji has been investing in the micro-cap space since 1996, looking for that elusive purple unicorn called the 100-bagger. So far, he has yet to spot this magical creature but is still active in his search. He is also the Founder of http://www.ldmicro.com.

Dear Patrons,

In honor of Mother’s Day, I am going to be brief.

You are the luckiest human being on the planet if you have:

1. Great health
2. A good sense of humor
3. Empathy for others less fortunate than yourself
4. A loving mother, caretaker, or anyone who believes in you.

Mother’s day for me is everyday, but it is not just for Moms. It is for anyone who takes care of their children, relatives, friends, or those who can not take care of themselves.

One of the most powerful stories I’ve read in years completely changed my perspective on the meaning of “love.” It made me open up more than my wallet. It made me cry.

It is hard to read but it is also beautiful. All the “noise” in the world is meant to distract us from what is truly meaningful.

Each other.

Happy Mother’s Day,

Chris Lahiji
