This review is from: How to Invest $50-$5,000 10e: The Small Investor's Step-by-Step Plan for Low-Risk Investing in Today's Economy (How to Invest $50 to $5000) (Paperback)

I really love this book intensely. It is one of the very few books that does not presume that you have $1000 or $3000 just languishing your bank account waiting for something to do.

It gives hope for prosperity to those who are not earning six figure salaries. In a world where your future financial security is more and more up to you alone, this book offers invaluable information and advice.

I wish I had read this book ten years ago. I would recommend parents to buy their teenagers this book instead of smartphones ipads ipods. it is sad that young people in the USA want only the 'get rich quick' schemes and they don't realize that money is made gradually and this books tells you how. i really wish I read this 10 years ago!!

Instead of ideas and in depth knowledge, this book is an overview of all different types of typical investments. I do think this is a useful overview but not as interesting as I wanted it to be.
