I think this would be a great way for many Tennesseans learn about investments, retirement plans, and economic concepts.

I'm on the verge of moving all my retirement saving from a big investment firm which I pay, what I consider high fees, to do it myself (scotttrade, vangaurd). I'm having a hard time trying to figure out which mutual funds to go with. Any suggestions on where to find good/non-biased info?

Background check imo. Don't think I'm kidding either. All you can do is look at the company and its past record. I dont know if this will help, but check out investopedia.

Go start a thread or threads in the Pub and if the post activity or scope warrants it, I'm sure we'd consider it. That's how we've generally expanded over the years.

Thank you. I don't know how these things are done, but let's try the process.

I like the idea and would contribute but I'd be hesitant to provide or take specific investing advice.

They will never stop growing either. They get to take advantage of a vertical supply/demand line.

A disclaimer would have to be stickied.
