This came Recommended, but some of the content was more complex than I was ready for and other chapters seemed redundant. Take away: active management of retirement is a bad idea. I learned a bit to add to my financial sense. Off for a random walk down wall street.

Excellent book on 'majoring on the majors' in investing.

This book can be finished in 10 pages. Author made it a hundred pages book. Or I can say that it can be summarized in 1 sentence: Buy index fund.

decent book. satisfying that he says a lot of the things that I say to clients.

like all self-investing books - they trash on the industry but at least he does say some help from an RIA/IAR can be a good thing. He's suggesting fee for service - which if you can handle your own temperament and not freak out can be a good thing. But many can't and need the ongoing handholding I do.

of the self-investment books I think he does a better job at being realistic toward the help I'd provide - so many just trash everything about advisors.

some of his math and analysis is pretty simplistic, but that probably goes toward the audience.

good book for anyone wanting to learn more.
