The Numb3rs of Finance
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This book is great for anyone thinking about entering the securities field, or just interested in taking a more active role in managing his or her own investments. If you've been away from formal math studies for some time, the author's patient step-by-step approach to all calculations is reassuring. He begins with a very helpful section on the proper use of a calculator. (I suspected that there were some neat things it could do that I hadn't explored yet!) An added bonus: the book includes "every calculation needed for the Series 7 test," for those considering a career (or second career) as a General Securities Registered Representative (Stock Broker).
