FS: Free Investment Coaching for i-clubbers
This is to help those who are going through a difficult time, especially if you have made any bad investments.
I work as an investment coach to help people meet their goals with investments. Sadly with this economy, a lot of people have made poor decisions with their savings, IRA's, and etc. so I am offering completely free suggestions.
I will not even tell you my company name, because I have zero interest in taking your money. Just want to offer any help that I can give, and share my two cents of knowledge with you. My specialty is with people within the income of 100-250k for the interest of real estate investments, but will not overlook anyone who needs help.
I am NOT a certified financial advisor (though studying to be one), so take everything and anything I and anyone ever tells you with a grain of salt. But I will guarantee to help you in the best way possible.
Always look on the bright side, the market is up 18 today and at 11,428!
Chart of past two years:

Growth has been slow, but it's rising nonetheless.
Best of luck to you all,
Kevin

"Your network is your net-worth!" - Meet people!!!!! Go to events, informationals, the bay area is blessed with the biggest and baddest investment boys coming to SF.
Do your due diligence: Always do the math, make sure it makes sense before EVER investing.
Read everything and anything. If you're into securities, I personally like Jim Cramer. Last week he talked about how this market isn't actually as bad as people take it to be. Don't just believe him because he's Cramer, look for proof. Hint: Link posted. Make sure it makes sense to you, don't just take advice from advisors.
The better subie owners are doing, the more subies on the road! Right guys..?

is there a way i can dip my toes into investing? seeing commercials for etrade made it seem like the place to go.
by dip my toes i mean, play around with maybe 100 of my own dollars, or maybe even practice with virtual stocks of sorts.
what's your take on gold investments v trading stocks and foreign currency?

Too late for gold. When the public is saying, "Buy now!!!" it's usually too late.
I don't know too much about foreign currency, my mom knows more... haha. But I can never say enough, diversify.

# Bear Stearns. Cramer recommended buying this stock on 8/17/07 at $118.20 per share. He lost 95 percent on this one - selling at just under $6 per share on 3/20/08.
# Morgan Stanley. Cramer recommended buying this stock on 9/15/06 at $70.95 per share. Its recently been trading around $25.
# Lehman Brothers. Cramer recommended this stock on 10/17/05 at $55.18 per share. On 9/5/08 with the stock trading at $16 per share, on CNBC, Cramer selected Lehman as a "screaming buy" and said things couldn't get any worse for the company. The firm went bankrupt and the stock trades for pennies per share for more than a 99 percent loss for Cramer.
# Merrill Lynch. Cramer recommended buying this stock on 9/19/05 at $60.17 per share and sold it on 9/12/08 for $17.05 per share for a 72 percent loss.
you'd be better off with index funds. lol
