Ignore the Hype

Financial Strategies Beyond the Media-Driven Mayhem

By: Brian Perry

Narrated by: Graham Rowat

Secure your investment gains and supercharge your results with this down-to-earth analysis of investing fundamentals.

Via powerful and unique insights, Ignore the Hype teaches listeners how to keep their focus squarely on time-tested strategies for meeting their financial goals without getting distracted by a constant barrage of news headlines.

The book takes a common-sense approach to the financial world that's ideally suited to the everyday investor. It covers topics including: how to avoid competing against hedge funds in a game they've rigged; what you can do today to avoid taxes tomorrow; Wall Street's dirty secret: Forecasting is just guessing; why some of your investments have worse odds than a casino game; how the media circus can derail your financial plans; and surviving a world where financial advisors don't have to act in your best interest.

Ignore the Hype emphasizes the difference between short-term trading and long-term investing, how to filter the constant onslaught of information coming your way from every angle and separate the valuable content from the noise, and how to build a foundation for investment success based on common sense and academic research.

Very informative for long term investing

There is a lot of information in here for new investors. Lots of other finance books are full of fluff, but this one is packed with substance. Enjoyed it.
