I liked this book it gave a great and simple understanding of various forms of investing and money management. There were a few parts where the book was repetitive and disorganized in my opinion, but it was valuable for review. Overall, would suggest if you slept through your economic class in high school.

December 19, 2019Unfinished. I'd recommend this book to someone studying for financial exams. It's a good supplemental guide. It's not a good book to read page by page. The info is useful, but there are definitely other more concise books out there that would give you the same info.
