Book Description
Throughout the last fifteen years of the bull market, individual investors were able to participate and amass financial holdings by way of mutual funds. But the constant buying and selling to "beat the market" and grow their fund's wealth also entailed costs and capital gains. And who paid for it? The investor. Over the past 20 years smart investors began switching to index mutual funds to keep more of their money. Index funds buy and hold all of the stocks in an index, dramatically reducing trading costs and taxes. And now, with Larry Swedroe's expert advice, the small investor can take advantage of this investment strategy and win big. In The Only Guide to a Winning Investment Strategy You'll Ever Need, Larry Swedroe explains:

The world of mutual funds can be bewildering, but finding one's way in it has become a little easier in the past few years, with the arrival of books such as Mutual Funds for Dummies . Yet even this Dummies guide, weighing in at 406 pages, can be a little intimidating. Someone should write a smaller book, readable in an hour or so, with just the basic information on how mutual funds work and how to identify and evaluate the appropriate ones.Which is exactly what Jason Kelly has done. The Neatest Little Guide to Mutual Fund Investing is admirably brief at 131 pages. It could be used as a textbook example of how to render a complex subject in the simplest and clearest way possible. Yet nothing essential has been left out, and even experienced fund investors could benefit from this quick read. How many investors fully grasp, for example, the various measurements of a fund's riskiness? Kelly explains what to make of a fund's alpha, beta, and standard deviation, and he does it in a way that anyone can understand and use. --Barry Mitzman

MAXIMIZE YOUR RETURNS -- MINIMIZE YOUR RISK
Now, more than ever before, average investors are embracing index funds to eliminate the anxiety and expense of trying to predict which individual stocks, bonds, or mutual funds will "beat the index." In The Index Fund Solution, Richard E. Evans and Burton G. Malkiel explore why choosing index funds -- funds that buy and hold all stocks or bonds within a given group of securities -- ensures that you will always do as well as the market average.
The Index Fund Solution not only examines why index funds are growing rapidly in popularity but, using easy-to-understand language, also explains how anyone, from longtime investors to novices, can use these thriving funds to create a successful investment strategy. Whether you are saving for a child's education, the purchase of a house, or your retirement nest egg, index funds can be the key to unlocking the potential of dependable, long-term returns.

Book Description
This book takes a very simple approach on investing and helps explain it in a story about two children. It is intended for children and teenagers aged 10 to 15, but also is a book that adults can use to easily understand concepts about investing. The basic premise of the book is that a child investing only $10 a month in mutual funds and adding more per month starting as a teenager can create wealth of about a million dollars over their lifetime, due to the length of time the money is invested. The book is intended as an educational source for both children and adults. Children and adults can learn that if they start investing early and regularly they can create significant wealth over their lifetimes. If children learn this lesson early they will develop good money habits and be investors throughout their lifetime. This book would be a great gift to a child to help them start to learn how to invest, which will be something that will stay with them for the rest of their lives and hopefully help them be financially independent.Download Description
