Finish this on the flight back from Cancun. It takes some humility to read "for dummies" books but I actually learned a ton and felt that it provided a very comprehensive, easy-to-understand explanation of conservative investing principles.
I learned about ETF's, mutual funds, stocks, bonds, real estate investing, small biz investing, and general principles such as diversification and risk tolerance. Tyson could have organized the book a bit better sometimes this issue is exacerbated when readi Finish this on the flight back from Cancun. Tyson could have organized the book a bit better sometimes this issue is exacerbated when reading on Kindle because you can't easily find old notes or chapters , but his writing style seems relatively unbiased and it is great to learn about all the different sources of bias in financial brokerage firms and media coverage.
Highly recommend for any millennial seeking to take control of his or her finances. I didn't finish this book, but it doesn't look like I'm going to. It's not a laugh a minute, but it does give a clear picture of investing in general, including some decent advice. I do wish there had been a section on Socially Responsible Investing, though, since that is mostly what I try to do. Aug 08, Kimberly Te rated it really liked it.

I focused on the first two sections since that's what I'm interested in right now and the book did a good job of explaining the difference between the different kinds of funds in the market. I used this book as a Kickstarter to do more research on This book goes into extreme detail about the different aspects of investing and assumes that the reader is starting from scratch which was ideal for me.
I used this book as a Kickstarter to do more research on my own about funds online. Apr 11, George Moffatt rated it it was amazing. This book is great if you are brand new to investing or new to the stock Market. It gives you all the basics in a clear to understand format. Overall, this is a good starting point for a "dummy" - anyone with little to no idea about the several ways in which people can invest money. If you are looking for advice or a reference book about a specific type of investment, you're better off sticking to a book that is specifically about real estate, small business, or whatever venture you're looking to get into as it would provide more depth than what Tyson is capable of covering under such a broad title.
The book covers several different ty Overall, this is a good starting point for a "dummy" - anyone with little to no idea about the several ways in which people can invest money. The book covers several different types of investments, beginning with stocks. As someone with a new interest in investing, the content was mostly easy to digest and didn't suffer much from dryness. However, if you have no interest whatsoever in the topic and are only reading it because you feel a responsibility to do something with your money, you may struggle to get through it.
Regardless, it's something you should power through anyway - your finances will be much better off for it. I read an outdated edition from , but there are still a lot of useful investing principles that still apply today. It's also US-centric, so if you're not from the US it's probably better to find an equivalent introductory book for your country. Despite the general good advice, there are a couple of some eyebrow-raising aspects to this book.
I noted a section midway through where Tyson strongly advocated for a particular investment service company that spanned across an entire page, which read like an advertisement rather than his other briefer recommendations.
He also states that you absolutely "need" life insurance if you have dependents, which is questionable perhaps this is good advice for US citizens, but certainly not all countries. Overall it's a good start, especially if you're from America. Don't be like me and settle for an older copy: grab the most recent version, educate yourself about investing, and put your money to work!
Jun 30, Steven rated it liked it Shelves: big-people-books , non-fiction. Watch out, Wall Street! Armed with "Investing For Dummies," I am prepared to bedazzle the world with my investing prowess. Send me to New York. I'll bedazzle them all, I say! Joking aside, I chose to read this book because I know almost nothing about investing.
The "Dummies" moniker had me sold. Give me a financial book that assumes I have absolutely zero background knowledge. That is what I need. Since I have no experience, I can't really tell you if "Investing for Dummies" is good advice. It d Watch out, Wall Street! It does seem in keeping with other advice I have heard. Overall, I found the book to be accessible, well organized, and true to the promise of being for dummies.
My only complaint is that, like all investment advisors, the author does not provide any real idea what kind of risk is involved in the prospect. What percentage of investments fail? What are the odds my business will fail? Tyson treats risk in some hand-wavey ways. But I think there are some concrete details that can better crystallize just what someone is in for.
