Book Description

March 15, 2010

In a low yield world where government bonds pay next to no interest, S&P 500 stocks pay little more than that in dividends, the Canadian government is on the threshold of taxing income trusts, and even real estate investment trusts are suffering cash flow problems, one type of security still stands as a beacon of hope to income investors.

Master Limited Partnerships or MLPs

NOTE: This is an all-original, all-unique work.)

9% yields . . . that increase 9% annually . . . quarterly distributions almost guaranteed . . . capital gains that leave the S&P 500 in the dust . . . tax protection . . . business profits protected by federal government regulation . . . profit from the energy sector without the volatility of market prices because MLPs are paid by volume not final price.

Until now, the information available to investors has been scanty. There've been only chapters in books. One prominent financial advice company recently launched a newsletter devoted to them, but the price tag is $399 annually. The Internet contains summary but incomplete articles and snatches of advice (some good, some inaccurate).

Finally, investors can learn all about these terrific investments -- their rewards and risks; the paperwork hassles and how to get around them; and how to invest in them using both taxable and tax-deferred accounts.

In one convenient volume for one low price. This book is the first and only.

You'll discover:

The incredible benefits of Master Limited Partnerships

Why they're still incredibly cheap

How their legal rules and business structure combine to send you lots of cash

Why they'll continue to generate lots of cash for the foreseeable future

Information on every company

Information on every MLP index

Information on every MLP closed-end fund

What MLP i-units are and how they can skyrocket your IRA portfolio

How to understand and complete MLP tax forms

Everything you need to know to get started to enhance your current income or save for your financially secure future.

More About the Author

I started out reading, and soon realized I wanted to perform the same magic for other people that the writers I was reading were performing on me. I wanted to learn how to cast spells and transport people to new and different worlds. I started writing my first novel at age 9. I wisely took a break until about age 16, when I started submitting my first short stories. I sold my first professional level short story by age 21. I'd like to say that I've been writing bestsellers ever since then, but it's not true.

The real world intervened. The need to receive larger checks, more often, than my short stories brought me drove to work at a serious job.

In the years since, I've learned how to write to explain facts and concepts to people. We live in the Information Age, but most people are drowning in facts, with not enough guidance as to what's important and what isn't.

Now, as I resume my writing career in earnest, I love to research complex subjects -- such as investing, gambling and influenza -- and organize what I learn into ways to help people.

I enjoy combining the raw facts, my experience and common sense into a book that's useful and unique for ordinary, nonexpert readers.

I still enjoy writing fiction as well. I'm grateful for the opportunity to tell the world Janie's story in VIRGIN BLOOD.

2.0 out of 5 stars Just Google MLP's, August 27, 2010
By 
Kevin B. (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Master Limited Partnerships: High Yield, Ever Growing Oil "Stocks" Income Investing for a Secure, Worry Free and Comfortable Retirement (Paperback)
Well... I had high hopes for this book. I had done some research of MLP's in articles, annual reports and other data easily collected from the internet. When I ordered the book, I was hoping that it would take me deeper into the subject. Like how to value a particular MLP, what things to look out for on their balance sheet, p&l or cash flow statement particular to the industry they were involved in. Like where to look for trouble spots. There is virtually nothing in regards to the Oil and Gas industries that underly these MLP's. This is essentially a book of lists. The book is a large format paperback, with large type, very generous spacing on the pages, and some repetitive information. The book is 191 pages. The first 1/3 explains the VERY BASICS that are available on the web and the balance of the book is lists of the different MLP indexes, and the listed MLP's available, their address, ticker symbol, phone number, website etc. Hello Yahoo Finance. And each MLP listing takes up a whole 8"x10" page - seriously? Nothing that warrants $25. If this is all it takes to research and write a book to sell, I am focusing on the wrong things. If this book were normal type size and spacing, it would be lucky to be 60 pages! It was a waste of $25. Just use google. I gave it two stars instead of one, for Richard Stooker's return on time invested in writing it.

This review is from: Master Limited Partnerships: High Yield, Ever Growing Oil "Stocks" Income Investing for a Secure, Worry Free and Comfortable Retirement (Paperback)
In a time when individual investors are struggling to identify income-generating investments that do not carry intolerable levels of risk, this book provides a rational alternative to bonds, CDs and money market funds. The author writes in a clear and precise style to explain Master Limited Partnerships, how they work and why they can be an important part of an investor's portfolio. There is a discussion of what to look for when evaluating an MLP and an explanation of the tax reporting. The book is accessible to the amateur investor and can serve as a useful reference to financial advisors and wealth managers.

The author is not affiliated with any investment firm or the industry so the content is free of marketing bias.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not a "fluff" book - A Major title for High Yielders, June 12, 2011
This review is from: Master Limited Partnerships: High Yield, Ever Growing Oil "Stocks" Income Investing for a Secure, Worry Free and Comfortable Retirement (Paperback)
In today's economy every little bit counts but high yields count far more! As the author (Richard Stooker) so clearly explains here, yields are a combination of many factors that investors often ignore, such as dividends (especially dividends!). And oil stocks are of course hot now, but even when oil was low, they were obviously great investments because oil is a commodity that much continually be taken from the ground, is labor intensive, and when it's low it won't stay low. But with capital expenditures more fixed than other business models, energy companies can pay much more consistent dividends and this is one of several MLP strategies covered in detail here. I want to stress that if you're not a professional investor that you CAN understand this book. It's not one of those tiny "pamphlets" disguised as a self-published Book, this weighs in more than 200 pages long and jam-packed with information ANYone looking for returns can find useful right now.
