Investing 101

i'd like to begin learning about about investing [stocks, mutual funds, etc]. can anyone refer me to any great resources for follow up on the how-to's of investing [websites, forums, books, etc].

i greatly appreciate your help thank you.

Come on guys!


I'm not trying to be rude by any means, just that you gotta open your eyes sometimes and notice features that are built in on the forums!

That's just a blurry image. I see nothing unblurred indicating what should be done. OMG IM CONFUSED. haha

i gave up on the forums

and bought investing for canadian dummies edition.

A link to "The Financial Webring's" Financial Planning Thread.

what's with the pic? I don't follow.

A website I'd recomend is:
http://canadianbusiness.com

there's forums there as well that encourage the direct discussion of specific stocks and strategies (I've never understood why RFD does not allow this).

Fear of pump and dump and other such scams leading people with little investment knowledge (say the OP) losing large sums of money.

if you look closely, there's one thing that's not blurred (hint: it's near the top right of the picture )

I was joking. I could clearly see what you were ephasizing.

HOWEVER, for effect, you clearly shoulda desaturated the color (grayscale) the remaining of the picture!

Hey buddy, give the guy a breka, he's just asking for advice man!

Mork and Gemini actually helped out, while all you did was wine and do nothing.

it doesn't hurt to REPEAT info, who cares if someone else has allready posted something about it!?

It pisses me off when you have annoying people telling you "oh its somewhere else", well sometimes people don't want to seep throughs hundreds of pages to find some info! So they post and IF anyone knows they say "hey go here, save time".

dasaylay's post was actually more useful than yours. they gave the op a resource for finding out answers to his questions. if you have anything to offer the op, then please share.

i've answered countless questions in the finance forum, and for general questions like these i don't bother as they've already been answered. no need to repeat myself.
