1.0 out of 5 stars What a crock, November 6, 1999
By A Customer
The folksy advice sounds too good to be true--and it is. How couldn't someone--anyone--have seen that the so-called "returns" on investment are rigged? The media waited too long to expose the fact that the authors included club fees in figuring how they supposedly "beat the market." In fact, the market beat THEM. Don't waste your time or money.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bah!, August 22, 1999
By A Customer
Ok, the ladies did get people interested in investing, but they really screwed up in the end. I can't believe that they still do speaking engagements about investing--to me, they're the Milli Vanillies of the investment world!

1.0 out of 5 stars how can you trust a book with an error in the title?, March 21, 1998
By A Customer
News reports are now saying that the Beardstown Ladies club annual investment returns were under 10%, rather than over 20%, because of a mistaken calculation. Whopping blunders are not the way to inspire confidence in their advice.
