I see the sticky at the top of the forum but It doesnt seem to be of the same nature as my question.

Anyway long story short I am keen into going into working in investing/stockbroking (maybe investment banking), I want to get a degree in Finance & would like to know were do I go from here on my road to becoming one? (wont be for another 2 years)

Also I was wondering if there are any starter books/sites (pref books) that could get me preped for this career. I have been occasionally reading things such as the financial times/wall street Journal and various Investor magazines but some Investing terms still just fly straight over my head.

I play some virtual investing games on investopedia and quite enjoy it. I am also half way through Warren Buffets book "The Snowball".

Thanks in advance for you're answers looking forward to reading them.
