Title: Myth #26: This is a great investment book
Product review: Mr. Clements' editor should have told him that if you want to write a personal finance book you have to actually endorse something. OK, to be fair, he likes stocks. But not much else. A humorless, discouraging look at finance. Not a book to read when depressed or looking for an inspiration for your next investment. Clements tells you how bad everything from owning a house to life insurance can be, how you'll never get ahead, earn 10%, beat inflation (he is obsessed with inflation and mentions it on almost every page----no exageration) and how everything will be eaten up by taxes. I couldn't wait to finish this. The most un-fun book on investing I've read.
