The perfect introduction to investing. Seriously, if you're not familiar with the general concepts of investing and need a solid and easy-to-read guide on the subject, read this book. It's more comprehensive than most and you won't get bogged down with investing terms and language. If you like this one, also read the author's retirement planning book. Recommended.

The Investing Quickstart Guide is the perfect tool for beginner investors.

The book discusses various asset classes, investment strategies and how to begin your investing journey. It contains the same information typically taught in an undergraduate upper division finance class without all the math and graphs. The prose style has an informed friend feel to it.

While most of this information can be found on the internet, it is easier and faster to read it all in a single book. While the author recommends diversification, he doesn’t push any particular product like many websites do.

The Investing Quickstart Guide is a great start for new investors. 4 stars!

Thanks to ClydeBank Media and NetGalley for a digital review copy of the book.
