Educational Scholarship

There is a saying amongst traders that the best way to learn is to lose money. That money lost is often referred to as "tuition." This book has helped me stop paying "tuition" to the market. The advice in this book is timeless.

Excellent book! Nice combination of information!

I found this book to be excellent due to the combination of various financial wizards that were interviewed in the book and the honest, straightforward advice. It is refreshing to see the combined advice of many people instead of just the opinion of one person. I will definitely buy any other books from Mr. Sincere.

Great book

I first picked up a copy of this book at the library and I liked it so much I bought two copies, one for me and one for my teenage son. 101 Investment Lessons is everything and more than I expected. I was looking for investment advice and Mr. Sincere delivered. It is fairly quick reading and loaded with useful advice.Perhaps it was the bull market but after reading this book I tightened my portfolio and made more money in the last two weeks than I did in 6 monthss. Believe me, this author is good.

Non-threatening, entertaining and filled with great advice

This superb book is easy to read but there is so much information in it you have to read it a couple of times to fully appreciate what is being written.The author does a great job of objectively summarizing all the expert advice by some very famous investors. It is obvious Mr. Sincere spent alot of time researching his subject. He is able to convey his ideas without getting technical and boring, one of the problems with other financial books, except for the Fool books. The section I found most entertaining and helpful was when he wrote about the danger signals and pitfalls to avoid. All in all, well written and one of the better books about the market.

I highly recommend this book

I'm a fairly new investor and this book helped me a lot. It is chock full of information. Although I really liked the individual lessons and learned the most from them, the interviews with the market gurus were fascinating. What I like is it lets you really get inside the pro's heads to see how they trade.This is one of the best books I read about investing in the market. It really tells you how to make money and the most commmon mistakes that investor's make.
