F.P. Hey, Jimbo man, what’s with the moniker? Wasn’t Jim Jones like this radical 70’s dude? You’re not like, related to him are you?

J.J. No. Not at all. Just an odd coincidence. I used to be called “Rev” when I worked at the Chicago Board of Trade though. Kind of a joke.

FP. HA! Oh yeah, I get it. So what did you do there, man?

J.J. I was a commodities trader and floor manager.

F.P. So, you’re like a hardcore financial type dude, huh?

J.J. I guess you could say that. I have 15 years in capital, risk management and investments.

F.P. Wow! Heavy duty.

J.J. I also started my own business called Sage Money Management. I kind of stepped back from that though because I wanted to help get Fizzy Fruit off the ground as the CFO. I have good experience in business development that I gained from a software firm in Chicago. I thought I could help Adam, our chairman, and I really believe in our product.

F.P. Whoa! Who was that that just flew by?

J.J. Oh, that was my son Parker.

F.P. He’s so short!

J.J. Well, he is only a year old.

F.P. What was that in his hand?

J.J. That’s his calculator. He’s learning how to do compound interest.

F.P. Wow, man! Like a little prodigy dude, huh? I guess the Fizzy Apple doesn’t fall from the tree.

J.J. Guess not. He can also take your pulse and temperature. He gets that from his mother’s side. Pediatric nurse, you know.

F.P. Cool that he can count a pulse but what’s the big deal about sticking a thermometer in your mouth.

J.J. That’s not the way he’s learned to take a temperature.

F.P. Ow! Radical! So where’d you go to school, man.

J.J. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in economics and finance from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

F.P. Righteous! Well, I won’t take up any more of your time, dude. I got some good stuff for my article.

J.J. What’s the rush? Why don’t you stick around a while. I’m making a nice fruity beverage later that I’m rather famous for.

F.P. Uh, I don’t think so, man!
