Synopsis

The world of online investing can be overwhelming if you don't know where to begin-and have a road map to follow. Happily, you don't need a degree in computer technology or a business background to build a working knowledge of online investing services. In Online Investing, you will find complex information made easy. It will increase your comfort level with online investing, from demos to day trades. Important concepts are broken down into manageable parts, and provide the direction and tools you need to become a confident and knowledgeable online investor. Increased interest in do-it-yourself money management is a defining trend of our modern world, and the DK Essential Finance series provides the perfect personal finance library to help take advantage of this phenomenon. These outstanding guides provide a practical and impartial resource to guide you through important financial decisions. Useful questionnaires pinpoint one's financial status while easy-to-use charts and graphs help track cash flow, cut through the complexities of financial lingo, and gain the confidence needed to build real financial security. Readers can learn to invest online, live debt free, plan for retirement, or pay for a child's education.
