    This book was very informative, especially to someone who is new to investing. I especially enjoyed the differing investing/trading concepts. I now know what a call and put are and am not afraid to attempt them. I'm going to expand my trading practices as I build my portfolio from reading this book. I love the way the book explained in simple terms how I can make more money without a broker and little effort. The chapters are short and easy to refer to when needed. I can't wait for the sequel.

    Concise, to the point, knowledgable & most of all entertaining However, sorry that I didn't read it before buying emerging market ETF's in 2/12 I'm ready for Investing 102 to Pro

    This is a good overview about investing, with short chapters giving lots of useful information, especially for beginning investors but it also has tips for more experienced investors.

    "This book was easy to read no technical mumbo-jumbo. Even though I am a seasoned investor, I learned several new, important things. The book even inspired me to write some simple options! The author's very nonaggressive approach to investing is the perfect guidepost for new investors, especially young adults. Two thumbs up."
