Pretty good book. - [27 Nov 2008]
I like the book, but wish it were less repetitive. I think that Andrew Tobias' book, The Only Investment Guide You'll Ever Need, is more succint. I wish that he would update it given the new state of the economy. 3-4 years makes a huge difference in tax...

Great tool for personal purposes. - [02 Oct 2008]
It's just amazing. Every other theme not too well understood is explained with clarity. Website references are a plus. If you have no idea of most financial concepts, what they mean and how to understand them this is a good starter tool.
