Mikko Mäkinen’s interview is coming sometime next year, which is so amazing it’s almost hard to believe. I’m not the only one excited about this! To put it modestly, Mikko is a truly top-tier investor, but I also like his “down-to-earth” attitude, his appropriate humility, and his professional and high-quality way of writing about things. Based on my own and others’ experiences, he is also a very nice and polite guy. 
We’ll see at what stage we can get the interview out next year.
A few other big names have said they might agree, but we’ll see, and I’ll give them the option to decline, as I do with everyone. I’ve always been left with a good feeling every time I’ve asked someone for an interview, even if they declined; every private message related to the interviews has been very pleasant.
I also hope that the interviews with company representatives provide you with some good extra insights into the companies and their representatives, which you can utilize in your investment decisions.
In the coming year, we will continue to aim to publish the interviews on Fridays by peak lunch hour.
That’s all from me, except that if anyone is feeling a bit down this New Year’s Eve, you can send me a private message and I’ll reply as much as possible alongside my other activities.
