Kevin Gandiya has been a Motley Fool contributor since late 2017. His personal investment goals are hopefully the same as yours: to build a rock-solid portfolio and hold on to a stock that spiffy pops! Outside of reading and researching he spends time with his family and many late nights cheering on Manchester United in the English Premier League.
