    Educational Materials?

    I'd like to start this forum to get info on what educational materials you all use. I'm trying to learn more about investing, as many of you are as well.
    So... books, websites, iTunes podcasts, ANYTHING that will increase financial knowledge.
    Please post your favorites.
    Thank you in advance.

    I get all my investing and trading info from here....

    http://www.fool.com/

    The Motley Fool also just received 25 million in bailout money from the US treasury - your tax payer dollars hard at work....

    I don't know who you trade with - but I have TD Ameritrade and they have an entire section of their site dedicated to education. I have taken about half and I'm still trying to absorb it all. Some of the best training I've gotten - aside from what I learn from Relmor/John/Brandon/Demian/COS/Killer and the rest.

    Shots, great idea. I hope this gets some traction ...

    Brandon ... thank you - For the links, for everything you do. I am so greatly indebted to the many here, this has been such an education already - I am very grateful.

    I originally came over here on a tip (suggestion) on SIRI back in Dec. from Market Watch - One of the few levelheaded ones that I could ascertain from what became just too much political\doom and gloom, the same rhetoric day in and day out - I found that it was actually starting to effect me subtly, it just gets in your pores and drags you down with it.

    I probably have spent a good year or so just reading various things before I took a chance of putting my toe in and first bought small chunks of SIRI. Found it interesting that others here had some interest in Ford and Etrade, a couple I had been watching\wondering about as well.

    It's getting late, rambling ... just wanted to say thanks again.
