You don't have to be Ben Bernanke or Warren Buffett to be a good investor, as a matter of fact you probably know more than you think right now. A good portion of picking investments is common sense. Investment clubs give the opportunity to discuss investments rationally and deliberately. Most investors fail because they buy and sell with emotion. Investing is a process based on fundamentals and information--larger groups can (usually) see past the noise and ask the tough questions. It’s the premise that you learn by doing.

That's actually the best by product of joining/starting one. Props on finding an advisor you trust but its always good to know a little bit about the game you are playing.

Never heard of these. Although I'd be a bit nervous about joining one. I'm not that informed when it comes to investing, so I dont have many tips to offer. Plus I trust the advisors I have now.
