Another vote for Motley Fool. Be sure to avoid all their advertising garbage and concentrate on the Investment Tutorial on the left side of the home page.
John Bogle's (founder of Vanguard Funds) advice on mutual funds is unbeatable. Any book of his covering mutual funds (particularly the logic of index fund investing) will be useful. Pick one (or just search for his advice on the web): http://mutualfunds.about.com/od/indexfun...ebooks.htm
I like Jim Cramer's advice (though his TV personality is a bit too abrasive for me):
This book is good (primarily a stock investment book):
http://www.amazon.com/Jim-Cramers-Real-M...im_b_img_1
He also has a new book out...I haven't read it yet:
http://www.amazon.com/Jim-Cramers-Stay-M...gy_b_img_a
I also thought this book had a really nice system (also for stock, not fund investing):
http://www.amazon.com/Little-Book-That-B...0471733067
There are others, but those are my top picks.
