You might want to go to the sharechaht website and have a look at the 
'education' section.  In particular the Sharemarket FAQ, by Sarah 
Corkill, but there is lots of other good educational material there 
too.

There is only one point of caution to add.   I can't think of anyone 
off the top of my head who is truly 'independent' in the finance 
industry in New Zealand.  In other words any broker will 
have an agenda to satisfy their best clients.  And those people 
aren't you or I-  they are the corporates!

Go to the main sharechat page again and click on the 'Education' 
heading, which will give you the option to select the 'Learning to 
Invest' series of postings.  Have a look at "the Broker/Adviser" 
section, as it explains why not all broker advice can be taken at 
face value.

Regards, 

Snoopy
