Would give article content four or five stars, but book poorly edited.
Only one article contains the original publishing date; while numerous articles make future expected return predictions.
One can google the specific articles to get the original publishing date, but that interrupts the flow of ones reading.
The chart on page 104 is unreadable, unless one holds it a few inches from his eye. You have four
shades of gray with thin black lettering written over it.

Worth a Look

Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2018

A collection, so: a few pieces you've probably seen before and that'll tell you nothing you don't already know, some that may cause you to rethink your views, and a couple that are intentionally provocative whether convincing or not. On balance though, a fun read worth the money. BTW if this is available in Kindle, take a pass and get a hard copy--there are many tables and charts not easily readable on Kindle.

careless, random essays

Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2017

the essays are very short in general. also, the editing is really bad and careless. a couple of essays seem to come directly from blog posts without any changes to the text. this is very dissapointing. I was expecting way more. the book went straight to the bin after reading.

I just finished reading this book yesterday and couldn't hide how displeased with the book. I was initially excited ibecause some of the contributors like Jason Zewig, Morgan Housel, Ben Carson, etc are my favorites and read their blog consistently. This book however after chapter one by Jason Zewig went down the hill! I don't know who this book is written for? Traders, value investors, speculators? One consolation, my money will go to charity!

This is a very good financial/investment book

Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2017

This is a very good financial/investment book. The BEST thing about it is that the information contained therein is current situations and ideas.
I certainly hope there is a sequel this next year.

Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2018

contains some very dump writings which ruins the rest. some authors show very basic level of understanding of the market by predicting stock returns with very few variables and/or with limited number of mental models to describe returns.

Very good - more so at the price

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 10, 2017

Verified Purchase

Do not buy this if you are trying to find a special way to invest. There are no magic investment techniques. Rather, this series of short articles will make you think about:

(1) the need to save for investment if you want financial security; unless you are in the minority who have secure jobs with final salary pensions;

(2) the importance of forming a plan and keeping to it;

(3) make that plan simple - set your asset allocation e.g. 60% share funds, 40% bonds, keep putting new money in, watch the charges, do not over trade, and have realistic expectations.

Before reading this you should have an understanding of how personal investment works. These articles are written by experts and they will make you think in simple strategic terms; and make you a better investor for it.

Thought provoking, 5 stars from me

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 29, 2018

Verified Purchase

If you enjoy thought provoking writing on investment and markets, this is highly likely to be for you. Stumbled across it from Meb Fabers podcast & bought 1&2. I'm a bit geeky on investment writing and enjoy seeing things through the eyes of others who have a job in the industry and these books have not disappointed. They will remain in my collection and not be re-sold/cycled. Proceeds also go to charity.
