Investing 102

[Sieg]

Great feedback it's nice to see so many people taking this to heart!

If I may, I'll speculate that like myself many might be hesitant to post comments or questions for fear of exposing their perceived lack of investing/financial knowledge or be labeled neglegent for not addressing investing or retirement funding matters earlier in their life.

What I've observed is the key contributors in this thread have a reasonable amount of experience, put a lot of effort into their delivery to insure they are sensitive to the "other" issues, and have a genuine desire to help fellow car enthusiasts.

The common objective appears to be getting people engaged and learning about fundamental investment principles and strategies, thus creating opportunities for themselves to improve their financial position and quality of life.......no matter what the age or phase. What I really appreciate is that the information is not being handed to us on a silver platter, we're being forced to think and investigate which greatly adds to the value of the lesson.

Please don't hesitate to participate, more participation creates more learning opportunitites, which deliver more qualified dividends to the participants.
