5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read, September 28, 2009

By	Jasjeet Dhaliwal - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Power Curves highlights one of the most crucial yet overlooked elements of investing - the use of compounding. Kyle's use of sailing analogies makes the book a tremendously interesting read, while each page outlines strategies that impart immense financial wisdom. Definitely one of the best financial investment guides to come along in a long time.
