Finance Channel / Bullz-Eye Home
If you're just getting started, the Editors recommend learning as much as you
can about investing and financial planning before you jump in, regardless of
whether you're interested in investing directly into stocks. For those of you
who have been investing on your own, learning more can help your financial
performance. The web, along with books and magazines, can be a very helpful
guide in learning about investing and planning. The Editors also recommend using
more than one resource to supplement your learning so that you get exposed to as
many points of view as possible. Each site listed below is an excellent resource
for information and advice about investing and financial planning.
Also, get business and finance information on Twitter @finance_bits and @business_bits.

you like other sites better, but it is hard to go wrong starting here.
