Get in the habit of reading Money Magazine and you can see most of the content online at CNN/Money.  To learn more about investing go to Vanguard

On TV, try CNBC but I suggest you consider Mad Money with Kramer as entertainment more than investment advice.

Financial information on companies and funds can be found at Bloomberg, Google, and Yahoo
