Informative

The terminology lost me when he started going into the financial aspect. So since I have no knowledge in finances I found it hard to follow. If you are like me maybe finding the basics of finances to help with the meat and bones of this book.

Excellent

I really liked it. It's very educational and fun. I strongly recommend it for the novice investor.

Great book

Very easy to listen to, very very informative.
I wish it was longer because is was so good.

Excellent place to start

This was my first audio book. Great information. This gave my the missing pieces that I need for retirement investing.

Clear & Simple

Great Book

Very informative but not overbearing. I walk away feeling fulfilled and educated enought to start investing wisely.

easy to understand

i love books that are straight to the point, i enjoy and appreciate stories included as long as they are short and not a ton of stories included. This book is perfect for someone who wants to start finacial investment. Its easy for anyone to understand and the information is hard to confuse as well as eye opening. Bringing a sense of confidence to anyone looking to invest in any and everything.

Wonderful investing introduction!

For many this book is honestly all one will need to succeed in investing and saving for retirement. Practically everyone over-complicates investing due to human nature and the belief that success takes hard work. And while that's true in many areas of life, both studies and statistics repeatedly show that it's not true in investing. Excellent book!!

Pretty good if you new to investing

Great book... especially if you are a novice investor like me. It's a good listen.
