Best book I've read on the subject.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is a down-to-earth book in which everyone can find valuable suggestions - some simple, others that take a little work. The sections on investing in stocks and how to make your stock selections is excellent. Although I am already a member of NAIC, I found much simplified information to be helpful. I also like the way the author emphasizes that planning for your future applies to all facets of one's life.
