By far the best of it's kind!

Too many "Financial Experts" make the bulk of their living by writing "expose's" of the "secrets" of top money managers, market timers and guru's. All too often, these books amount to 200 plus pages of feel-good hype that give financial advice of the same caliber as you're average "psychic" hotline. Reading Mr. Stern's book was a pleasant surprise, to say the least. It begins with the best possible summary of the modern investment marketplace in the concise manner in which it is presented. When reading the following interviews, one can easily see that the focus is on the individual style of the "All Star" that gives due credit to their achievements and pleasantly lacks "medicine show" hype. The author's main point, to the best of my knowledge, is that there are many successful approaches to investment. What separates the winners from the underdogs isn't a "secret" strategy, but common sense, integrity, and sound money management skills.

Read this one!

The experts interviewed in this book have all shared their passion and formulas for investing. They are all very credible professionals and offer sometimes very different methods for success. Mr Stern does a fine job in making a complex subject easy to read and to understand.

A no nonsense description of real investment strategies.

I really enjoyed reading this book. Ken Stern managed to get some of the best in the business to reveal their "secrets". Reading and truly understanding this book was like earning a masters degree in finance from Harvard - I feel truly educated. Now, if I can only devote the time necessary to implement all this knowledge - - - maybe I can become rich too.

Incredibly informative, insightful, and easy to read

I found this book to be both fascinating and informative. Learning the different strategies, thoughts, theories, and dispositions of these nine "superstars" was very interesting. It helped me a great deal with my own thoughts about investing. Best of all, the book is written in a way that I could easily follow. It was a pleasure to read. I will recommend it to my friends and family.

A look into the minds of Wall Street's elite money managers.

Ken Stern's "Secrets of Investment All-Stars" is an incredible guide for all investors. Each investor offers clear, concise advice on how to pick stocks and manage your money. Most impressive are their personal success stories and the happiness it brought them. Their willingness to share their secrets makes this an invaluable guide to all who wish for similar financial prosperity.
