 Ding- Ding...Here's a Winner !!! April 23, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I read a lot of books, but I seem to only write reviews/comments on the super good one's or the time-n-money waster's. This book is a 5 star and nothing less. My new high-liter is about dry because I went crazy marking everything that I thought would be valuable to reference later on. Basic? Yes, this book is very basic and gives basic info and ideas. But sometimes it's good to go back to the basics to recheck and make sure you're headed in the direction that you intended to go in the first place. It's easy to get side-tracked and even lost at times in this insane market. Jason Kelly knows what he's talking about and with his simple permanent portfolio suggestions, you'll finally be able to keep a cool head when others panic; and they panic every day, win or lose. With his simple "long-term" strategy you'll still be able to trade on the side if that suits your fancy. But with the knowledge gained in this book you'll more likely have a better chance at picking winners yourself instead of relying on the media to tell you what the hottest thing on the street is, and by then you're already too late.
For 10 bucks you can't go wrong!

I borrowed a copy of this book from my local library and liked it so much that I bought one.
Easy to read, logical reasoning, and complete coverage of the subject.
Great for almost every investor April 11, 2008
I really enjoyed this book. It gives you most of the information you need to learn how to research, buy, and sell stocks. It tells you what to look for in a potential investment, and where to find the information. The writing style is pretty good so it is fairly easy to read. It doesn't go into technical analysis but most people wont need that. I think this book has everything the average investor will need.
Handy Investment Book April 6, 2008
Jason Kelly writes in a style that is very easy to understand. When you combine that with his knowledge of investing the end result is a book that is a must have. Jason walks the reader through all the basic investment lingo so that he/she can begin with a good grounding in the basics. He then presents the investing philosophies of some of the greatest investors ever so the reader can gain an understanding on how they think and approach the topic. After that he puts it altogether with his own theories and lays out a simple but proven strategy for both the layman and the more experienced investor. Jason also discusses exactly how to set up an account with a broker and recommends all sorts of investment journals including his own newsletter and website. I highly recommend this book.

It is not unusual to read the description and reviews of a book, and be disappointed in the product. That is not true with this book. It is just as described by the publisher and by Amazon, neither more nor less, and it is excellent. Designed to be read by those new to investing or those simply interested in the subject, it is also a very useful refresher for more seasoned investors.
