From value investing to short selling to risk tolerance, this primer is packed with hundreds of entertaining tidbits and concepts that you won't be able to get anywhere else. So whether you're looking to master the major principles of investing, or just want to learn more about stocks and bonds or mutual funds, Investing 101 has all the answers—even the ones you didn't know you were looking for.

  • More like a reference manual...
Format: Kindle
Clearly if youd like to know about every investment option known to man, including its founder, history and overall strategy, then you've got a winner. The title is a little misleading since the beginning/average investor may feel overwhelmed with a plethora of knowledge. I've learned that confused minds tend to do nothing. It's only in the last 5th of the book you receive steps to measure personal risk tolerance, financial goals, and asset allocation. While very informative, I was expecting a little more content like the last few pages, rather than a comprehensive list of every investment tool. I would have preferred a more strategy based approach on investing. ... show more

  • Great book to start understanding investing
Format: Hardcover
Before reading this book, I was quite ignorant about investing and its terminology. After reading this carefully (twice), I feel I now have a pretty solid grasp of concepts that used to be Greek to me. So I highly recommend. Before reading this book, I read the author's other book, Infographic Guide to Personal Finance, which was very helpful as well. After reading both of these books, I met with a financial planner at my bank and was able to articulate my financial situation and goals. I would not have been able to articulate these had I not read this book. After that meeting (which was fruitful because I studied this book in advance), I now feel empowered to make sound financial planning decisions. ... show more
