Too often, technology enthusiasts do not fully understand the financial choices made by the companies they value. Recently, Vernon tried to explain the news of Microsoft buying back stock from shareholders, and failed pitifully at it. Listener of the show Blake Latson offered to help explain what some of the financial announcements really meant, and Vernon gladly accepted!

Blake shares with us the Microsoft products and services he uses in his daily life, both professionally and personally. He explains Microsoft's stock buy back program, some of the basics of stock investing, and some great insight into the US corporate tax code.

Thanks for listening! We always appreciate your feedback and interaction.
