About this title

Synopsis

If you are looking for a solid investment option that, over time, will give you higher returns than savings accounts, certificates of deposit, and money market funds, look no further than this informative book. Financial expert David Scott does not offer a get-rich-quick scheme or risk-free investment options. Instead he clearly presents valuable information and realistic advice that will allow you to make informed decisions about investing in the stock market.

Reviews

Investing the mere price of either of these books will bring substantial rewards to the beginning investor. Scott's guide achieves its ambitious goal of explaining the intricacies of the stock market and its investment potential. Wallace's guide is broader in scope, aiming to educate novice investors about managing money with a variety of investments. Each author brings a significant amount of financial expertise to the topic. Scott (accounting and finance, Valdosta State Coll., Georgia) has written numerous investment books; Wallace served as business editor and financial columnist for the Boston Globe. A hallmark of both titles is their clear explanations of complicated material, free of jargon. Scott takes the intimidating subject of the stock market and successfully demystifies it; libraries that own Claude Rosenberg's classic Stock Market Primer (Warner, 1991. rev. ed.) will still want to purchase it. Wallace's guide, despite a chapter entitled "A Widow's Dilemma," which seems anachronistic in the Nineties, would also be a good choice for most libraries seeking to expand their personal finance collection.
