The Easiest Way to Invest—Without Picking Stocks

Did you know you can invest in hundreds of U.S. companies at once—without guessing which stocks will win or lose? That’s the power of index funds and ETFs. Each one is like a basket of stocks you buy in a single step, giving you instant diversification, broad market growth, and peace of mind.

How are most millionaires in the U.S. actually made?

It’s not through day trading, crypto, or chasing the next big stock—it’s through steady, disciplined investing in index funds. This book shows you exactly how that works, step by step.

And Here’s Proof That Small Steps Work (ask your fav AI Chatbot)

If you had invested $2,000 in a U.S. stock market index fund in 2020—and added $200 every month—you’d have about $20,900 today (based on the S&P 500’s long-term average return of ~10%).

This is how you take advantage of the exponential effect of compounding over the long haul.

A Beginner-Friendly Guide from Real Experience

Back in 1997, I started with almost nothing and no financial training. After years of trial, study, and mistakes, I discovered that low-cost, broad-market index funds are the simplest, most reliable path to long-term growth. This book condenses that experience into clear steps you can use today.

Inside you’ll discover:

• What index investing is — and why it works
• How to find and select safe (not opinion, based on past performance), low-cost index funds and ETFs
• How to build successful portfolios that meet your goals
• Simple steps to open an account and start investing
• Why time, consistency, and compounding matter more than timing the market
