 This book is on-the-money (literally)!! March 11, 1999
Without any doubt, this is the best book I have read so far! Regretfully, I don't believe my review will do this excellent work justice, so I guess you have to find out for yourself....ENJOY!
Don't Miss This One! February 20, 1999

I can't write enough about this book. It covers so much in such a tiny amount of space that I found myself flipping back through the pages just to see how I learned it all. The word economy here is unbelievable. It teaches much more than books three times its length. The truly magical part about Kelly's writing is that it never gets boring. It's funny, instructive, convincing, and thorough. This book will not only get you ready to make big money in stocks, it will teach you how to write well. The part I enjoyed most was the section about market volatility. Kelly tells the story of Intel in 1994 when its chip failed certain math calculations. He showed how foolish investors abandoned the stock when nothing fundamental had changed. In the end, they needlessly lost money. You will never lose money after reading this book. Instead, you'll understand how to use fluctuations to your advantage and always come out ahead. This should be the first investment book on anybody's list and should be re-read every year. As you can tell by now, I loved this book!
A Must-Have if you're heading for Wall St. January 23, 1999
After reading this book, I feel like I could make a killing on Wall St.!! Mr. Kelly gives a lot of good pointers and tips, plus tells what the biggest money-makers look for in stocks. Very informative and chatty.
One of the best January 2, 1999

I've read almost every book on stocks and this is one of the best. It pulls together the finest advice written about stock investing and translates it into memorable language. Kelly's ramp-up system that takes the novice from mutual funds to large cap Dow stocks to small cap growth stocks is smart. He shows the wisdom of Warren Buffett alongside the practical observations of Peter Lynch. Rather than take sides in the age old value vs. growth debate, Mr. Kelly shows how the two systems work best together. Perhaps most importantly, the book shows that it is vital for every investor to understand his or her companies thoroughly. Only then can you make an educated decision whether to buy more when the price dips. Read this book, folks. It is one of the best.
A perfect beginners guide on how to work stocks December 6, 1998
Kelly's book is the perfect way to introduce oneself to what the stock market consists of and how it can be looked at from different angles. It is a great book whether one is looking to get started or needs to refresh on certain aspects of the market. I highly suggest this book to those whom do not have a farmiliar background in dealing with the market but would like to get started.
