Advise: You might consider subscribing to a newsletter and/or investment service Web Site (ie MorningStar) and/or some specialty Web service site (that focuses on dividends and provides one or more model portfolios). My Dad bought the hard copy subscription to Value Line and each week/month they sent you an update supplement that you put in this big black binder. I remember looking through this as a teenager and that is what got me interested in the market. It was always there on the coffee table and it spurred questions to my father on what was 'Alpha', what are PE's and what are these value line ratings. I would go to the library and read the Value Line updates and their simple stock rating was very good. Most of this information is now available on your Broker's Web site (for Schwab it is found under Research) and I look at the individual stock reports (these are similar to the old Value Line inserts). The key is you now have to make the effort to dig these reports out. Before they were just mailed to you, so that is why a hard-copy newsletter might be worth the time. If anybody still reads newsletters, can you post the ones you like and why. I am thinking I might try something conservative and simple that tracks a model portfolio. I used to listen to Bob Brinker and know he did one. For me, it's more about getting new stock ideas. Also, I am thinking of building up a core position of ETF's to supplement and/or replace my Vanguard Funds. FWIW, My long-term retirement plan is to hold a core of Vanguard Mutual Funds and/or ETF's. I guess I have 20-30 years to convert my individual stock holdings to these managed funds. Also, it's pretty easy for my Trustee to distribute shares to my list of beneficiaries rather than deciding who gets what individual stocks. EKS
