Making winning investments in the stock market - in 24 easy lessons. The practical advice in this step-by-step guide helps you reap the rewards of sound investing - one easy lesson at a time.
Good overview, great topics. Gives a boost to understanding the financials. I wish the author would have given references to other books if we needed more info on specifics. But overall a great book to start investing.
Nice presentation - clear and accessible - but felt somewhat dated now. For example, the recommendation for an individual American investor not to have more that 5% - 10% of their portfolio in international equities isn’t consistent with anything else I’ve read recently. Also, published in 2012, the book predates the wide introduction of commission-free online platforms. Still, the tone is agreeable and the arrangement of the lessons makes sense.
