One of the best sources for investing wisdom is Warren Buffet himself. Read his annual letters to shareholders (http://www.berkshirehathaway.com/letters/letters.html) and his "owners manual" for stock in his company (http://www.berkshirehathaway.com/).

His way isn't sexy, but it works and makes sense.

Works? I'd say that's an understatement :-) According to Wikipedia: "Berkshire Hathaway stock produced a total return of 76% from 2000-2010 versus a negative 11.3% return for the S&P 500."
