    Very effective use of black and white. Initial impression is that of a crisp, clean layout.
    Something that distracted me instantly were the ads at the top and right. More so the top than the right.

    If you goal is to get people to click those ads then mission accomplished. If it is to get them to continue on down the page then I would reconsider the size and or position on the page.

    Overall great look. Obviously took a lot a time and effort. Good job.

    -Wierd text cut off in the feature article (bottom of text cut off by window).

    -personally, I hate when the screen darkens and the sign in/register box comes down. If I wanted to sign in/register, I would have already done it... I don't need help

    -the site appears to be a msn.com/yahoo.com/aol.com type of site... but then every article is like a blog. Not sure how that will go over with the masses.

    -great look and design

    Nice site… But I have one suggestion to increase your site visibility in terms of users. You should add free blog section, where user can post blog or article related to finance.
