Review:Well written but the solutions offered rely on government which has a poor track record of providing real solutions . I would have hoped for more specific suggestions for a 72 year old couple with a small business to reduce risks in stock and bond markets using index funds and asset allocation. Worth a read to make one aware of the realities which lie ahead. Read more

Review:Very informative and a book any and every investor should read (especially the younger investor). Simplifies the seemingly complex endeavor of picking stocks and makes investing accessible to even the most casual investor. I would recommend to every one I know. I will not summarize any of his points here... Go buy the book! Read more

Review:This is a down to earth , well organized and easily understood book . As a newbie to investing in 2013 I am
following the system. So far the biggest thing I have learned is to keep my losses minimal (7-8%). This can at least
keep me in the game . Matthew Galgani, Amy Smith and William O'Neil are motivational authors.The CAN SLIM system allows for rational rather than emotional investment decisions. Read more

Review:For those who go to your stock-broker-salesman for advice I recommend you read this book.

There is a whole cadre of people who are out to separate you from your money as you delve into the investment world and this book will help protect you from their misguided advice.

It is a book of wisdom for beginners but has tons of information for seasoned investor.

Set goals, understand personal risk tolerance, set asset allocation, diversify, reduce costs, rebalance and keep emotion... Read more

Review:I had previously purchased this book, lent it out and didn't get it back.
I repurchased this book and read it again. I enjoyed the book and reading about Nicholas Darvas a lot. It is an easy read and added to my knowledge of investing. It was just a good book. It had been mentioned in the investing newspaper Investors Business Daily several years ago is why I initially purchased it. By the way, I Googled Nicholas Darvas. He died at relatively young age of 58.
If you purchase it, I thi... Read more

Review:This book explains much valuable information about our "beliefs", what they are why they are important and how to deal with them. It is a classic for traders but should be essential reading for everyone. Read more

Review:You might as well buy the actual RichDad PoorDad book. The one for teens has me doing miniature tasks that doesn't actual tackle the means of entrepreneurship or becoming better. It doesn't take a rocket-science to understand this book or the original in the series. By the end of the book (which I finished in less than a week) I felt like I didn't accomplish much and just gave the book away. I do admit the book allowed and pushed me to write my thoughts out in a journal. I really enjoyed the act... Read more

Review:I bought this book hoping to get some insights into investments and trading but all that the author speaks about is what it takes to start a company and then get rich. He highlights the points which most people already know. There isnt much information at all in this book. Its no guess he's saving it for many more books he is planning to release. All i could make out is these books are his way to make his next million and not really helping any new readers learn new stuff.

I'm never gonna... Read more

Review:Sebastian Mallaby, a former correspondent for The Economist magazine, is clear on where he stands on the issue of hedge funds regulation. He is against it. With the possible exception of a few systemically significant funds, he thinks regulation would bring more harm than good, and that there are more pressing concerns for fixing the global financial system. Not that hedge funds are a sideshow. Mind you, they manage close to two trillion dollars, and their management style and compensation pract... Read more
