Nick McCullum (https://twitter.com/NickJMcCullum) is Director of Growth at Passiv and a great source of advice about Python scripting on Twitter. Passiv is "Autopilot for your Portfolio: Passiv turns your brokerage account into a modern portfolio management tool. Build your own personalized index, invest and rebalance with the click of a button, and seamlessly manage multiple accounts." (https://passiv.com/).
Full disclaimer, Nick approached us about the possibility of an interview and sponsorship. We were curious about how to start a successful finance software company using behavioral investing ideas so agreed to the interview. It turns out the Passiv team is serious about developing a platform that fosters application of good behavioral investing principles, so we will also have him back for a second interview to give a tutorial about the platform. Keep your ears peeled for that.

"Success in investing doesn't correlate with I.Q. once you're above the level of 125. Once you have ordinary intelligence, what you need is the temperament to control the urges that get other people into trouble in investing." (Business Week, July 5, 1999)" (http://www.jameslau88.com/warren_buffett_and_his_wisdom.htm).
