a great book on thrift Rating:
5 / 5
The author has been very successful in producing a book that tells people how to take charge of their financial lives. For that single bit of advise he has been successful. This book has been one of the best sellers for years. Many investors attempt to invest in the stock market with limited success. For these investors I have a suggestion.
I recommend a little book titled How to Make Money in the Stock Market-Buy 2,500 different stocks for $1000 - Pay no Commission by Gordon L. Eade If you are familiar with the basics of investing (e.g., understand stocks and bonds, know how mutual funds work), then this is an ideal book for you to learn how to implement these superior strategies. Eade tells you why you should stop paying attention to Wall Street, the media, and almost everyone else, and follow a proven investment method that is the most likely to lead you to success in the long run. These are proven strategies.
The book promotes Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT), which use new Wall Street products such as index funds and exchange traded funds to obtain excellent returns with minimum risk. He shows you how to mix various asset classes. The author explains the theory's underpinnings in ordinary clear language making it easy to understand its applications in the real world. Model portfolios are provided to achieve planned results with a minimum degree of risk.
Time well spent to spend well Rating:

This books contains simple, yet often not followed advice on how to prosper financially in life. And while most "how to" and financial planning books are filled with boring text, this provides the information in a simple, fun naritive.
This book is the only required book in college that I've actually read multiple times since leaving college. Not to mention it was the cheapest of college textbooks.
