American Association of Individual Investors (AAII)
The American Association of Individual Investors (AAII) is one of the best resources for a new investor. Reasonably priced yet comprehensive in coverage, AAII.Com is all about educating new investors. AAII is simply one of the best values out there.
A one year subscription to AAII costs a paltry $29.00. I say paltry because for $29.00 one receives quality information that could easily cost much more. A year's subscription entitles one to 12 issues of the AAII Journal both print and online. In addition, there are numerous resources on how to build a portfolio and how to invest in stocks. As an example here is a recent article on how to trace a firm's cash flow.
Perhaps the best part of AAII is the Stock Screen section. Every month AAII updates several stock screens developed and based on the teachings of several different investors and traders. For the value minded there are screens based on the works of several famous value investors including David Dreman, Benjamin Graham, and John Neff. For the growth investor there are screens based on the work of Phil Fisher, Martin Zweig, and others. Overall, for a new investor the screens provide the ability to study how a screen works and to develop ideas form them.

AAII was one of the first subscriptions I paid for when I started last year and I renewed this year. I recommend it to new investors. For $29 it is well worth the money spent.

The AAII has helped me greatly in managing my investments. They have unbiased education for all levels of investors and two model portfolios that have performed extreamly well are included with membership.

Have you looked at the Computerized Investing option they offer? Do you think it would be of any use? I am currently considering AAII membership and I wonder if the extra money they charge for the Computerized Investing section is worth it.
I did both the first year to see what Computrized Investing was, but I did not purchase it the second year. While I may not have enjoyed it you may have a different opinion.
Thanks for the information about AAII. It's always good to hear about a quality source of investment information.
I'm a Romanian Investor and can't subscribe to AAII. I'm very interested in the AAII Bull/Bear Questionnaire conducted by AAII every week. Please, can somebody send me the questions in that questionnaire ?

Ask yourself: If they know so much, why are they not investing themselves, instead of writing a newsletter? As has been said, it's because "Nobody Knows Nothin'" (...John Bogle, former CEO, Vanguard).
I have found AAII to be the best cost-benefit value of any other investment source. I have an MBA,completed a Financial Planning University program, and have invested for over 30 years. I have yet to find any other source to compare to the comprehensive, practical investment services, tools, and educational information provided by AAII. I highly recommend AAII to anyone regardless of investment experience and background. It can provide life long value in helping you invest, manage and grow your money.

How would you compare AAII to Better Investing? I belong to an investment club which subscribes to Better Investing, but I am wondering if I should join AAII as well. Would I learn anything more?
