a tremenous book for new investor !
|

The book is quite good in terms of providing basic rules in entering the stock market. Actually, it is applicable to any stock markets in the world. The book, written by Mr.Llynch and Mr. Rothchild, is easily understood and provided with basic guidelines for new investors to be well prepared. To make investment in the stock market isn't easy nor difficult to be reached by anyone. For new investor, it is recommended to read this book before taking any real challenge in the realm of stock market of which is very fragiled to the news, rumours, and flows of information around the world.

Business Primer for Grade School Children

The author seemed to spend more time defending the compensation packages of the poor misunderstood CEOs in this country than on the basics of investing and the markets. I have gotten better information free from mutual fund companies trying to promote their products. If I had been given this as a required reading in high school I would have criticised it as much too basic. Bascially a waste of money!

Great book for anyone entering the world

Peter Lynch obviously recognizes the fact that it is important to have money to survive in this world, and he helps keep people from wasting their money. I love the most basic principles of how money should be saved to grow over time. It's such a basic idea, yet so many people have not grasped it. The history of capitalism is interesting, but can get boring if you're not really a history person, and he makes some odd assumptions about things like home ownership and the theories of Karl Marx. But it's a great book especially for teens like me just getting started with money management. If only all of my friends were so enlightened.
