Default Investment/Finance Forum recommendations?

I'm spoiled by S2KI, and have developed a low tolerance for crappy forums on other subjects...

What recommendations to people have for financial/investment oriented forums?

Maybe something with a high info-to-crap ratio using decent board software?

Wow. I thought I was the only one totaly pre-occupied by cars & bikes! No one utilizes these forums? I've used Yahoo and Motleyfool, but find both to be tedious to use.

Any suggestions?

I've used motley fool a bit, but I find you can have better investment discussions on non investment boards, like s2000online. Occasionally there are good opinions on off-topic.net's politic-investment-affairs forum. I'll keep my eyes open..

I don't trust any investment advice I read on internet forums, since too many posters have ulterior motives &/or don't know what they're talking about.

Fortunately, I get tons of Wall Street analyst reports through my company. Oops, they can be biased as well, but at least they provide good information and analysis.

PFB,

The DRZ has been a great bike! It's a little heavier than ideal, but very fun, handles well, and has a strong powerband from top to bottom. I thought the magic button would be a nice convenience, but underestimated how much it would come in handy - like when I stalled climbing a steep hill during a hare scramble.

After buying it, I got the moto-x bug, bought a YZ426F, and put the DRZ up for sale. I obviously had no idea what I was doing...the YZ was an incredible bike, but way too much for my riding ability and not as much fun. The YZ is now gone and the DRZ is a keeper.

I've removed the lights and added a number plate to make it look more aggressive - it matches my S2K pretty well, huh? Pics @

Hey guys... I want to buy a guilt-free NSX in 2004! Nobody follows any investment boards?
