Investing for me (and you)

Not sure if I made this fully clear. I’m a small investor, interested in smart, sophisticated investing. So I’m not going to bother with posting anything about “start your own business”, or “make money from installing pay phones”, etc.

But I do want to look at how to profit from the smarts of better investors than myself.

My choices I think are

Individual stocksETFSMutual funds (especially indexed)and then Hedge or other private investing vehicles

Do you have any ideas?
