    I had known of Schwab's investor forums for years, and I had been asking Fidelity reps about an online investor forum for Fidelity customers. I don't know how old or new the 'Fidelity Investor Cimmunity' is, but today I received an email inviting me to join same. This site doesn't seem to be directly accessible from the Fidelity.com site, so it is new to me. If you are a Fidelity customer...

    Is it definitely their own official forum? I haven't seen anything about it by email or on the site. I think it is a good idea though.

    Edited to add: Tried to sig in using my Fidelity account info and got "Our records indicate that you do not have access to the Fidelity Investor Community."

    I guess they are rolling it out selectively to some specific subset of members. I will just have to be patient ;)

    I think investment forums can surely be helpful. I belonged to one years ago that gave quite a bit of potential to new and potential customers. I am not sure if it is exactly what you are speaking about, but anytime you can find information about investments and quality ways to invest your money, I think it can be instructive.

    "Currently the Fidelity Investor Community is dedicated to Expert Independent Investors who hold a minimum retail account value (excluding employer plans) of $250,000, and trade a minimum of 36 or more times a year. Based on these requirements, your account is not eligible at this time. I apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause."

    Sorry to raise expectations, Penny. And I didn't know I traded more than 36 times a year...
