May 26, 2001, Washington D.C. - The NAOI Featured On
CNN.com. Under the title "Tools: Investor Beware" author
Tom Kraeutler reviewed online Web resources and stressed the point that tools
can be dangerous to a person's financial health without the education necessary
to utilize them. Too many sellers of tools for online investing neglect the
critical element of education beyond simple definitions and educational
"sound bites". The bottom line is that tools by themselves are not
effective. Tools in combination with comprehensive education are what the market
is demanding.
