Naseeb- Investment Club (for Dummies)


Have you ever thought about investing your money in stocks? (doesnt mean you have to have millions or not even thousands to invest?)
Or are you already investing successfully?
----------------------------------- ------------------------------
I am sure there are many Finance gurus among us too..
i was wondering would it be a good idea to start an investment club?
Where we can
1- Study and learn (In start) how to watch and monitor the market and how to invest, when to enter and when to exit etc etc.?
2-Find some finance gurus who are willing and capable of guidng us through, hence building a confidence through their tips and suggestions.
(i know it require commitment but im sure for those people who are already working in this field will have little trouble in passing us the day to day info.)


3- Hence after building the trust and understanding... Invest together to reap the benefit and profits.
There?s safety in numbers, of course. If you know you?re not the only club member who?s clueless about price-earnings ratios or estimating future growth rates, you probably won?t be as self-conscious about asking questions and struggling to understand new investing concepts.

IF you are iterested list your names and views/experiences here and if we get enough numbers we will start a new Village..
but i will urge the finance gurus to come onboard as well...
I would also love to hear the religious views on it too? I am sure many of you would have many strong views in those lines?

Some info about investment clubs:::
Simply stated (which we assume you prefer), an investment club is a group of people whose membership regularly meets, either in person or online, to study and then purchase individual stocks using a pool of money to which each member has contributed. Put another way, you and a bunch of your friends get together once a month to help each other learn about investing in stocks, and you collectively invest in those stocks that you decide have the best potential for future growth. Boiled down to its mathematical formula (always appropriate when discussing finances), that would be:

Study + Stocks + Socializing = Investment Club.

Don?t try reproducing that on your financial calculator.

Investment clubs can take many different forms. Some are clubs made up of co-workers, family members, or high school students. People interested in starting a club may recruit people from their social clubs, their place of worship, or even complete strangers they meet at an investing event or by placing an ad in the local newspaper. Some clubs meet for an hour or two once a month. Some meet less frequently but then spend a weekend together. Other clubs never meet face-to-face at all.

Yes, being in an investment club and never meeting your fellow members is possible, even if you?re all active club participants. Online clubs take advantage of the miracle of the Internet, and conduct all their club activities using e-mail, Web sites, and real-time chat to communicate. Completely online clubs are growing in popularity, as more investors become dependent on the Web for financial information gathering.

Online clubs also are perfect for students or others who move frequently and therefore can?t commit to a traditional club because they know they?ll soon be living in a different county or state. Many extended families use online investment clubs as a way of keeping family members connected even though they may live far apart. Holidays and family reunions provide the perfect time for semiregular club meetings, while monthly business is conducted by e-mail or on a Web site

Investment clubs offer you a number of specific benefits:

A mixed bag of personal perspectives on stocks

A speed bump to slow your headlong rush into the market

Earnings that may outperform the market

An investment program that you can afford

Group purchasing power

there are many more benefits..
