— Columnist Russ Wiles, writing in the Aug. 20, 2012, edition of The Arizona Republic, notes that: “Any social setting that encourages people to learn has value, especially at a time when financial illiteracy seems to be rising. Some clubs, such as those in the BetterInvesting orbit, also encourage members to pool money and buy stocks together. But education always has been a central feature.” Wiles quotes Mimi Rauschelbach, vice president of the Phoenix Chapter and a BetterInvesting volunteer regional manager, at http://www.azcentral.com/arizonarepublic/business/articles/2012/08/16/20120816investment-clubs-still-much-offer-us.html#ixzz245ubRIkD .
