Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

An amazingly well-written, easy-to-read, and easy-to-understand guidebook for the investor who desires first and foremost to minimize the costs and maximize the profits from his or her investments. (Who doesn't?) Comprehensive in scope, the book discusses all aspects of investing--from stocks and mutual funds, to rare coins, antiques, and real estate--and is divided into chapters according to the category of investment. It is the chapter-level treatment of these topics that is most intriguing. Information is provided in the form of short, easily read, "cost-cutting" tips that rarely extend to more than one page and potentially result in substantial savings. Many investors, for example, do not realize that some high-load mutual funds that normally charge five to nine percent commissions also offer the same shares on the stock exchanges, shares that can be purchased through a discount broker much more cheaply. Recommended for all popular investment collections.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Informative but yet understandable., August 17, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Scrooge Investing: The Bargain Hunter's Guide to Discounts Free Services Special Privileges and 99 Other Money-Saving Tips (Hardcover)
I am a college student that has recently started armchair investing. This book really made the process understandable allowing me to open an account at an online brokerage firm. I however fell short of giving the book five stars for the writers political comments ei. His distaste for Merill Lynch for their boycott of investing in South Africa during apartheid.
