Founder
Buy More was founded by Moses Finkelstein. He has only two significant mentions throughout the entire series. He is first mentioned by Emmett Milbarge early in the second season, when Milbarge brings back "an old Buy More tradition" of Employee of the Month. The employee with the highest sale service would have the name and photo moralized on the wall next to the photo of the Buy More founder, Moses Finkelstein. Finkelstein is referenced again in "Chuck Versus the Ring: Part II". Big Mike is in his office when he hears a phone ringing and locates it in his drawer, where he has a phone labeled "Moses". Big Mike tells Jeff and Lester that the Burbank store has a great risk of being closed due to poor management. This leads them to decide to have a "Going Out of Business Sale".

“In the midst of this chopping sea of civilized life, such are the clouds and storms and quicksands and thousand-and-one items to be allowed for, that a man has to live, if he would not founder and go to the bottom and not make his port at all, by dead reckoning, and he must be a great calculator indeed who succeeds.”
