Charles Schwab's New Guide to Financial Independence

One thing that hasn't changed since this book's original publication in 1998 is Charles Schwab's conviction that the biggest risk in investing is doing nothing. But of course in the past six years the economy and the field of investing have seen big changes. That's why Schwab has completely revised and updated this book, adding new material and tailoring information to meet the needs of today's individual investors who depend more than ever on clear, objective advice. The most important addition is a completely new chapter on performance monitoring, which teaches investors how to look to objective benchmarks in order to properly and fairly measure the performance of their portfolios. This guide remains an indispensable resource filled with straightforward advice on investing for everything from your children's education to your own retirement. It's essential reading for anyone who is ready to get serious about reaching the goal of financial independence. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
