Just in case readers search this Berkshire Board for the 'How to Invest' 3 part series, I have moved the 3 threads from here to the Investing Beginners board:

Shrewd'm: Investing Beginners board at Shrewd'm

There are a lot of experienced investors at Shrewd'm however the value of investing information (that present the most important concepts, amidst the abundant noise) to youngsters is astronomically more valuable than for those already investing, because simply the decision to start investing early, versus never taking an interest, has a profound effect when starting young owing to the long compounding runway.

Many readers here started at AOL towards, even before TMF, near the start of such a runway, and are already seeing the monumental effect today. That's essentaily why I wrote the How to Invest series. If it positively effects one person it was already worth it.
