Such advice is consistent with the bigidea of Zweig’s book: If an investment looks too good to be true, it probably is. And he offers a useful process to help readers remember it.\" \u003cbr\u003e —SmartMoney.com  \u003cp\u003e\"There are very few in the financial media whose material I would consider recommended reading. Wall Street Journal columnist Jason Zweig is one of them, and his new book is one you should consider.  His latest work adds to his reputation for books that not only provide important insights into the winning investment strategy, but are also good reads. This little book is filled with sage counsel from which even sophisticated investors can benefit. . . His book also provides advice on how to avoid many of the behavioral mistakes investors keep repeating. As William Bernstein, who wrote the forward, put it: ‘Jason Zweig knows your financial demons, where they live, why they’re making your poor, and how you can beat them.\"\u003cbr\u003e —Larry Swedroe, CBS MoneyWatch\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book is a well written, fascinating page turner that I read in one sitting with a big bag of microwave popcorn. Yet, I don’t just recommend a book because it was thoroughly enjoyable. The main reason to read this book is that it can put you on the path toward reaching financial freedom. But it’s up to you and whether you’d rather spend your retirement years pursuing your interests, or spend them asking strangers if they’d like their value meal supersized.\u003cbr\u003e —Allan Roth, Founder of Wealth Logic, and author of \u003ci\u003eHow A Second Grader Beats Wall Street\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword xv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction xxi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter One The Three Commandments 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Two Solid, Liquid, or Gas? 5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Three You are an Egg 19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Four Keeping Your Cash from Turning into Trash 31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Five Guarantees are Not All They’re Cracked Up to Be 45\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Six Fixing Your Fixed Income 53\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Seven Stocks for the Wrong Run 67\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Eight Rules for Stock Investors to Live By 77\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Nine Little Things Mean a Lot 89\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Ten How to Get Your Kids through College without Going Broke 99\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Eleven What Makes Ultra ETFs Mega-Dangerous 107\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Twelve Hedge Fund Hooey 117\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Thirteen Commodity Claptrap 131\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Fourteen Spicy Food Does Not Equal Hot Returns 141\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Fifteen WACronyms: Why Initials are So Often the Beginning of the End 149\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Sixteen Sex 157\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Seventeen Mind Control 167\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Eighteen Financial Planning Fakery 183\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Nineteen Advice on Advice 189\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Twenty Fraudian Psychology 199\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Twenty-One The Terrible Tale of the Missing $10 Trillion 211\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Twenty-Two How to Talk Back to Market Baloney 219\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments 229\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"John Wiley \u0026 Sons Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48864627163479,"sku":"9780470398524","price":16.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780470398524.jpg?v=1722272793","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-little-book-of-safe-money-9780470398524","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
