• Great Book For Beginners Or Those Needing A Refresher.
08 March, 2010
NEW EDITION - I love this book! This was one of the first books I read on money and finance many years ago. It was really the one that got me interested in financial markets, stocks, mutual funds and investing. Heavy with pictures and illustrations, first glance could be off-putting to the serious minded investor types. However, it is written in clear, concise easy to understand language, and for visual learners, the pictures are a fantastic help. The book is sectioned off into very short segments within each chapter, making it easy to navigate, and to pick-up and put down at random. As I mentioned, when I first read this book years ago, it got me excited about taking control of my finances and making my first forays into investing. (which worked very well at the time, by the way) Years later, I have just picked this book up again for a quick refresher, to brush up on what I have forgotten and to become aware of new developments in the markets over the last 10-15 years. Overall, it turns what can be a daunting, heavy subject into something easy and approachable. Worth the read.

• Excellent Guide.
15 June, 2009
The Wall Street Journal Guide to Understanding Money and Investing is a very informative, detailed comprehensive guide that touches the many variations of investments. It simply explains the differences and how they are different in a very easy manner, and the important terms are bolded along with definitions. Obviously the best part of the guide is the colorful pictures and graphics, and the graphic organizers are tremendous. I really, really gained a great deal of understanding. One very surprising omission of crucial information from the guide is the explanation of Individual Retirement Account (IRA) and Keogh Plan. This would have benefited anyone who seeks a long-term plan in preparation for safety during retirement. All in all, The Wall Street Journal Guide to Understanding Money and Investing is a must pickup for anyone who wishes to understand the basics of the investing.

I got this book for less than $1. So excellent value. It was shipped within a week, but it took about another 2 to 3 weeks to deliver.
