	Random VF member testimonial:  "This site is a gem, and based on the posts by many members and my personal experience it is a site for learning, sharing and especially making money." more testimonials »
The VF Members Home Page is Jam-Packed with Information, not ads
	Below (scroll down) is an example of what our home page looks like to members (already a member? log on here). At ValueForum, every member has the chance to become an analyst, and initiate coverage, upgrade, downgrade, and reiterate a "Stock Rating" from "Strong Buy" to "Strong Sell" and provide their justification/analysis. Ongoing discussion and debate, reactions to recent news and corporate events, and general stock market discussions take place non-stop at the "Discussion Forum" where members can post their ideas in a private setting and share documents such as spreadsheets and PDFs with other members. Other site features include "Group Polls," "Shared Portfolios," a "Group Calendar," and more. There is a membership fee (rates at left) for anyone who wants to join VF and become a part of the premier private stock picking community on the web for value and income investors (no need to "subscribe," membership fee is pay-as-you-go, not automatically recurring subscriptions, plus, membership fees may qualify as a tax deduction - consult your tax advisor).
