About this product

Product Information

There are a few investment managers, of course, who are very good - though in the short run, it's difficult to determine whether a great record is due to luck or talent. Most advisors, however, are far better at generating high fees than they are at generating high returns. In truth, their core competence is salesmanship.|9780470102107|

Reviews
"excellent advice in a concise and accessible manner." ( The Wall Street Journal , April 10, 2007) "Its hard to argue with the eloquent logic of John C. Bogles latest ode to index funds...Bogles Little Book offers much exemplary advice." ( Bloomberg News, April 2007) Among monetary gurus and wise men, John Bogle is a singular case. As the founder of the highly regarded Vanguard Group, he is revered for the companys commitment to providing value to its clients as well as profits to its investors. He even has his own group of fans, called "Bogleheads," who cling to every utterance and pronouncement from the great man. In this latest entry in the Little Book series, Bogles gentle prose contains idiot-proof advice for investors at all levels. He punctures the myth of the superiority of mutual funds and instead declares that by using a bit of common sense, low-cost index funds are the way to go for most modest stock investors. Hes also wary of the ways of Wall Street and cautions investors to steer clear of its institutional con men and cautions against excessive fees and taxes that invariably eat up profits. Its not very glamorous or exciting advice, but thats also his point: Slow and steady wins the race. ( Miami Herald , April 9, 2007) " genuinely provides investors with the ideal strategy for making the most of stock-market investing" ( Motley Fools UK website , March 8, 2007) "Its an easy read that will, I suspect, quickly join Burton Malkiels A Random Walk Down Wall Street and Charles Elliss Winning the Losers Game as one of the indexing crowds favorite books."--Jonathan Clements ( Wall Street Journal ) "Its hard to argue with the eloquent logic of John C. Bogles latest ode to index funds." ( Bloomberg Terminal , March 8, 2007). "provides an opportunity to reflect on a remarkable career and legacy." ( Financial Times, 19th March 2007) "...it is John Bogles hymn to index-tracking investment, and a fascinating read it is too." ( Daily Telegraph, March 2007) "Those who doubt my reasoning should read the Little Book of Common Sense Investing by John Bogle." ( FT Adviser , 24th April 2007) "...particularly interesting...goes some way towards discrediting the stockpicking virtues taught to me in my time as a financial journalist." ( Fund Strategy, 7th May 2007) "...wittily written, pocket-sized guide...If you want to learn how to avoid the unpredictabilities of the stock market and the fees of middle men, then this book is well worth a read." ( Pensions Age , May 2007) " ... For the individual investor, it presents a solid game plan for growing funds over the long haul." ( Directorship , July 2007) "... read Bogles new Little Book of Common Sense Investing and youll see how easy it is to beat the Alpha Hunters at their own game!" ( MarketWatch , July 2007) ''The one big thing that Bogle knows -- and explains so well in this slender volume -- is that buying and holding a broad benchmark of stocks while keeping fees to a minimum leads to higher long-term returns than constantly trading in a vain attempt to beat the market. Common sense? Yes. But radical too, as the entire investing establishment is designed to get investors to do the exact opposite." ( CNNMoney) "Business books are often written by show-offs who want you to know all about their knowledge of the Greek tragedies and dark-coloured birds. So it was nice to get hold of the simply written Little Book of Common Sense Investing ...Its author, John Bogle, in no simpleton. He built Vanguard into a huge fund manager...He is synonymous with index funds in the US. Vanguards S&P 500 tracker is by far the worlds largest mutual fund."--Stephen Cranston, Investors Notebook (Jan 23, 2013), "Reading it is like having a fireside chat with one of the masters of investing."  CityWire.co.uk   Friday 8 August 2008
