From Your Street to Wall Street

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you need to know to become an a InvestorJanuary 21, 2016




This review is from: From Your Street to Wall Street (Kindle Edition)
If you've always wanted to know how to make your money work for you then this book is an excellent primer. The subject is notoriously complex and difficult to penetrate for the layperson but this book makes it easy to understand and the knowledge is simple to implement.

It's written with the beginner in mind and starts off with a financial self assessment. It carefully explains the subject in an orderly fashion with each lesson built upon the previous one so that by the end, the reader will have a solid grasp of what it takes to become an investor and why one should.

It explores the risks and rewards giving the reader a clear idea of what to expect when speaking with a stock broker for the first time. The book contains a glossary of need to know terminology and it contains several self tests to ensure the reader doesn't miss any important concepts.

The subject could easily be dense and dry but the author avoids this by writing within an amusing narrative to give the information context, making the book into an effective teaching tool. I would recommend it for teachers, parents, and anyone concerned with their long term financial health.
