Educational investment resource

Yesterday I wrote about FORA.tv, and today I have an free other online educational resource for those who are interested for a reason or other in the world of finance / investment: the MarketPlace Whiteboard (found it via zero hedge).

Here senior editor Paddy Hirsch explains with the help of a whiteboard (hence the name) and some simple and easy to understand metaphors all kind of concepts from high-frequency trading to credit default swaps. If you are a newcomer to the world of finance / investment, this is a great resource which will make it possible for you to understand more and more of the concepts and the discussion which is going on around them.
