Today, anyone can be an informed investor, and once you learn to tune out the hype and focus on meaningful factors, you can beat the Street. The Motley Fool Investment Guide, completely revised and updated with clear and witty explanations, deciphers all the current information--from evaluating individual stocks to creating a diverse investment portfolio.

David and Tom Gardner have investing ideas for you, no matter how much time or money you have. This new edition of The Motley Fool Investment Guide is designed for today's investor, sophisticate and novice alike, with the latest information on:

"If you've been looking for a basic book on investing in the stock market, this is it...The Gardners help empower the amateur investor with tools and strategies to beat the pros" (Chicago Tribune).

Review from a college student (short story- buy it)

7 October 2017 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

David and Tom Gardner's book has definitive met my expectations. I have been a short time Fool and have been hooked on the "Rule Breaking Investing" by David Gardner. I preordered the book because I was very excited for the new release. To give some context, I am a college student and know a little but not a significant amount about investing. This book clearly goes through both David and Tom's philosophy on which stocks to buy and general tips for investing. It is an amazing book for beginning investors and I learned so much from this book. In summary, this is a great buy for all walks of investing. I would recommend this to everyone for you and a friend. The impacts that investment can have in your life the earlier you invest are clearly shown throughout this book and is helpful motivation. I have not read any other investment books thus far, however, I plan to continue reading through. If you are a college student or really anyone, I'd recommend stop analyzing every investment book out there (there are 1000's I tried and failed to do it) and just buy this one and start becoming a Fool (for those of you that aren't Motley Fool followers, a Fool is a good thing).
Pros:
-Very easy read for anyone interested in investing
-Step by step instructions to follow
-Easy checklist to look back on for investing on stocks
-Evidence why their approach actually works
-The authors do not bombard you with advertising for their site very much at all which was refreshing
Cons (not many):
- The book was slightly damaged when it came in
-A few of the explanations (like on options) could have been explained a little better and take some rereading
Overall:
Buy this book for you and your friends and then continue reading other books (Motley Fool website has a good list of reading material)

The Best Book for Beginning and Intermediate Investors

31 October 2017 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

The original version of this book got me started investing almost 20 years ago, and the new updated edition is even better. This is the perfect book if you're saving money, maybe own a few mutual funds and a retirement account, but want to do better by learning to invest directly in the stock market yourself. This book goes through all the steps of setting out the building blocks of understanding the financial world from the very basic level, so anyone can work their way up from whatever rung of the knowledge ladder they're starting on. Intermediate investors can learn a lot too, following Tom and David's two different philosophies to do a better job of picking companies and learning to control your emotions and biases through the market's ups and downs. Individual investors can do better than the "wise experts" of the financial world, because we have the advantage of a long-term mindset where nobody else is grading us on performance quarter-by-quarter.

Wish I read this sooner

I wish I read this book before parting ways with great stocks. I like their no-nonsense, easy to understand approach to investing. The book made a ton of sense and after reading this book I have a newfound strategy when it comes to analyzing my next stock purchases - will the company grow? Is there a large and untapped addressable market? Do they have pricing power like Netflix where they can raise prices without losing customers? Smart use of debt and equity to enhance shareholder returns? Also they didn't spend much time on options but there were some good takeaways nevertheless. For example, if I am buying a stock I love if it drops to a certain price every time why not pay myself to do so? Write a put, collect the premium and if the strike price is hit then you keep the premium and just buy more of the stock you already love. I highly recommend this book to anyone, beginner or experienced.

Okay.

A little long winded at times. Tends to drop one too many foolish metaphors, but other than that, an easy, well written read. More of an intermediary book, probably not the first book you want to read. Does a good job of synthesizing ideas from Warren Buffet, Jack Bogel and Peter Lynch among others, and gives a hybrid way of thinking about investing. It’s given me a few new things to think about.

If I could give my children any advice, it would be to follow the advice of The Motley Fool. Now, if I could only find a book to tell me how to make my kids listen to me......
