The result is Taming the Money Sharks. The easy-to-follow guidelines you'll find in this book will help you navigate the shark-infested waters of the investment world, all the way to the financial freedom you dream of and deserve. A must-have survival guide for novice investors, and a source of fresh thinking and innovative strategies for experienced investors Features many illustrations, summaries, charts, real-world examples along with other powerful tools to help you avoid common mistakes and win at the investment game Lays out 8 proven strategies for investing systematically and surviving and thriving in the shark-infested waters of the stock market
