As a member, you may use the information for your own self-directed fund or just watch this site’s Fund as it grows and changes.<\/span><\/p>\n There is a secondary channel which is educational in nature and teaches the member about value investing and how to quantify intrinsic value and the corresponding buy and sell points for securities. This is done over a course of a hundred plus lessons; the idea is to give you long-term confidence with your trades. It is a self-paced program. There is no need to rush through the lessons. Although it appears quite extensive with 100 plus lessons, fear not, you still receive information about this site’s Value Investment Fund’s activity. This educational channel is open to all and does not require membership. However, information about respective securities and the buy\/sell points are only available via Club Membership.<\/span><\/p>\n Start out by first learning about value investing and how it works. There are eighteen lessons for Phase One<\/strong><\/span><\/a> of the program. The lessons are available right now and do not require a log-in. This is a self-pace program.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n
