Since the advent of the web, many of us can now get financial information far more easily and quickly than in the past. So much so that one might need guidance to the best/most reliable websites. Hence Jiao has produced this book.

But this type of book ages quickly. The listing of over 1400 websites with financial data is indeed quite useful. But it can easily grow stale. This type of information is better maintained on a website.

By contrast, other portions of the book have slightly greater utility. The classification of the various investment subjects that a reader should be aware of is good. And likewise for the general description of desirable traits in a website. However, when Jiao then assesses the main websites in each subject, that too ages badly.
