As the name implies, creating wealth truly is simple, and inevitable, if you stick with a plan. This book gives novice investors a guideline for how to get started and to create a plan for creating wealth that you can't outlive and still leave some money to your heirs. I have read several of Nick Murray's books, but this one is the first intended for the general investing public. As usual, as only he can, Nick takes a rather complex subject, and simplifies it so that the average investor, or beginning investor, can understand. If you are looking for the "hot" fund or for a get rich quick scheme, this book is not for you. However, if you are interested in putting together a plan to create the wealth that you desire, I think this book is for you. An easy to read handbook for disciplined investors.

This book, simply and conveniently, describes necessary investor behavior to accumulate wealth. This is a great book for financial advisors to send their clients and prospects to easily explain the "trick" to wealth accumulation and preservation. Some of the concepts and charts clearly illustrate what most of us try, sometimes in vain, to educate our clients about. Excellent tool for financial advisors. I highly recommend this!!!

Nick Murray does a great job of explaining the concept of investing in mutual funds to creatate wealth. This book is simple and easy to read, a great book for a beginner. The internet has made investing very complex, Nick Murray has made the process simple.

All in all, this is a great book on long term investing. Nick uses simple and true math to prove the points. I was able for the first time to fully understand dollar cost averaging and I now have a new view on bonds.

Only problem I had with it was his 'voice' as he made comments about working with a financial planner. At times I felt as if he was calling me stupid if I didn't agree with him. He also didn't make ANY good arguments of why I should use a planner....his only point was they a planner will stop you from selling when you shouldn't. Guess what Nick, I'm a big boy...thanks.

Again, it is valuable despite my one gripe.

just a great read, with really no bias. Nick Murray is not trying to sell you a product he is repping, or make you his client, I have read several of his books, and he just takes a no nonsense approach and shows your how simple (but of course not easy) it can be to accumulate wealth.

I only wish I had read this book years ago. It is a common sense approach to a very difficult subject, and it has a strong point to make: Invest in stocks, not fixed investments. For a long term approach to investing for someone of any age, this is excellent advice backed up by solid arguments. This book is also an easy read, with only five chapters building upon each other. Buy it!

This book is an easy read and provides a good reminder as to whether the long-term investor wants to own or to loan their savings and investments. Nick Murray addresses the real keys to successful long term investing. In these days of "information overload" and CNBC and its investment advice for the next 24 hours Mr. Murray helps the average investor and the seasoned investment advisor identify the behavior that will lead to the long term building of wealth. Highly Recommend this book to anyone who is serious about successful investing.

This is a great read for anyone who is wanting to make sure they can retire with enough money put aside for their retirement.

An excellent book if you are a financial planner. It gives you all the ammunition you need to handle the objections of your prospective clients. I am not too sure that it would convince prospects that working with an advisor is the best thing to do even though it is.
