Invested  in stocks? Or just getting into the game? Either way, before you buy or sell you should cozy up to the reports that the SEC requires of public companies. However, the average investor often avoids such forms as the 8-K, 10-K, and 10-Q (you're welcome!). These 10-ton documents are heavy with jargon -- but they often contain juicy and eyebrow-raising bits for those willing to sift through the financial mumbo-jumbo. Luckily, author and blogger Michelle Leder has made it her calling to dig into company filings and uncover things that would make any investor go "Hmm?" Who's paying the bills for the founder of Siebel's lush apartment in Paris? What company paid over $600,000 for executive golf club memberships? Did Starbuck's really need over $350,000 to relocate an executive? Thankfully, we won't have to resort to the footnotes to find the answers to these or other expensive questions.
