Investing and Saving?

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a publication(s) or a website that goes back to basics in explaining about investments and saving. I am also interested to know more about the stock exchange and would rather have as much information to digest before taking the plung.

I am aware that there are risks, as there are plenty of risks we all face in our day to day lives, but I would like to be educated about it before putting my money somewhere.

Some good sites:

http://www.vanguard.com
http://www.fool.com
http://www.bobbrinker.com

Look for their education sections. You don't need to buy anything to get to the education/research sections.

Yahoo Finance is a very good and informitive free website that can give you the 101 basics of investing, as well as support the advanced investor.

You write that you're looking for a basic, not an advanced, place to start. I found this to be such a site and, thus far, I've taken a coupla "plunges" after reviewing their data and I'm well satisfied.

As well, the Yahoo page, specifically for beginners without being entirely too patronizing:

http://finance.yahoo.com/education/begin...

www.investopedia.com

best site out there for beginners

I recommend Global Investors Community:
http://www.moneyhowto.com

There is one site I know that is written for the beginner about saving and investing. Click on the link below.
