Book Reviews of Stock Investing For Dummies

Book Review: Pretty good book on stock market investing
Summary: 5 Stars

This book gives readers a basic overview of the entire world of stock investing. Investing is where people get excited when the merchandise gets more expensive and depressed when it get cheaper. I like how the author explains the concept of value to readers.

"The grocery store is the stock market. What if two brands of eggs are similar, but one costs 50 cents a carton and the other costs 75 cents? Which would you choose? Odds are that you'd look at both brands, judge their quality, and if they're indeed similar, take the cheaper eggs. The eggs at 75 cents are overpriced. The same is true for stocks."

I liked how the author described to readers different brokers and their functions. Other authors criticize the brokerage industry, but this author describes to readers that brokers fall into two categories: full-service and discount brokers. Full-service brokers are more expensive because they provide other services besides just executing trades as discount brokers do. But he also makes readers aware that in the end, brokers are salespeople and are compensated based on commissions. I recommend this book.

- Mariusz Skonieczny, author of Why Are We So Clueless about the Stock Market? Learn how to invest your money, how to pick stocks, and how to make money in the stock market
