Book description
Everyone has it within them to become a successful investor. Right here's where you start.
Ignore the doom and gloom merchants - now is the time to start investing for the future.

Now they take the opposite view - the party is about to start. It won't last forever, but in a few years a lot of money can be made by the astute and well-informed.
This is your step-by-step introduction to the world of investment - including all the BigIdeas seasoned investors are searching for. You'll pick up ingenious and lucrative investment ideas in:
Real Estate
Stocks and Mutual Funds
Bonds and Cash
The BRIC Economies
Commodities and Collectibles
