To repeat myself: If you are interested in learning about stocks and investing, as well as seeking some independent (but free) investment advice, check out the Motley Fool. Although they offer a variety of products for sale, the information that you can obtain for free is more than enough for typical investors and potential investors alike.

I've thought about getting into it. The route I would take would be a stock broker. The market seems like it needs total immersion if you want to understand and actually earn money. Cool read though, thanks!

One thing that is missing from that article is expectations eventhough it is alluded to. Expectations drive markets and can even create markets. In my opinion, this is an important aspect to recognize.
Another thing to consider is that financial markets are more representative of a global macroeconomy in today's markets than in the past.
