Fabian is the grand prize winner of the Financial Future Challenge, sponsored by NYSE and K12. His idea, Oink-a-Saurus is an Apple iPhone/iPod Touch app combines profiler, which learns about your interests by tracking your web browsing & buying habits through UPC (bar code) reader and a what-if scenario creator showing what if you saved/invested in stocks rather than spending your money. Here’s why Fabian thinks his idea will work:

“My idea will show kids how investment opportunities exist all around them as they go about their day buying things at the store, browsing favorite websites, etc. It will allow them to go from buying a favorite thing to learning about the company that makes it, to news/research about that Co, to buy/sell that Co's shares in stock market simulator & for real. My app combines many existing technologies to learn the user’s buying habits to recommend Co’s to invest in. My app is smart & over time learns about the user & provides wise investment ideas that appeal to each particular user. It will also include a news service providing teen-friendly stock market & investing info.
