Quick update... the idea is certainly not going to die... I've asked Mr. Now to coordinate the effort of putting together a roadmap and leading the charge. I expect that this will be an exciting and educational project for us all!

Certainly value-investing is an important topic that will make it into the syllabus.
I'm hoping to hear from buffett and DesertCat on this topic per my 1-ago post on this thread. |

I strongly encourage members with specific expertise and passion for specific "financial" subject matter to contact me by PM if they are interested in book selection, facilitating reading and facilitating subsequent discussion on the subject. This program is long-term in scope and is to cover some very diverse subject matter. I am looking for those truly passionate about their specific topic who are also great explainers in print.
Immediately, I am seeking someone who can lead a discussion on Personal Finance and Financial Planning. Definition: Personal finance is the application of the principles of financial economics to an individual's (or a family's) financial decisions. It asks, "How much money will you need at various points in the future?" and "How do you go about getting that money?". It deals with questions like: * What is my annual income?* How can I increase my income?* What are my annual expenses?* How can I reduce my expenses?* How do I best budget my available income each year?* How much money can I save each year? ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_finance |

To all readers,
Tomorrow I post the Official Finance Reading Thread. In this post I lay out the vision and specific structure of the group participatory reading on Finance. Finance and investing are wide-scope topics and our reading will cover a lot of ground in a way that serves as many readers as possible. If you have passion and deep/wide knowledge on a specific personal finance topic, I want to hear from you now if you have strong interest in leading discussion on your specific finance and investing topic. Please PM me now and let me know if you want to lead out on your specific topic of interest. I look forward to hearing from you as we kick this off. We start off with the first book on April 17. Watch for my Official post tomorrow. |

This is a wicked idea. It's already caused me to buy three of the mentioned books, and i'm sure the schedule/roadmap will keep my reading on track also. I've quit poker for about a month now, and this is a great thing to fill my time with.
Thanks! |
