Smart Simple Investment Strategy (eBook EPUB)

What the book is about

We tend to overcomplicate finance, and too much analysis ends in doing nothing. Smart Simple Investment Strategy is written for the opposite: so you stop reading and start applying it.

It is also a personal book, written with the transparency the self-styled money gurus lack. Part One is about why money is not the point, Part Two about how to start investing and where, and Part Three about the psychology of money: comparisons, gambling, happiness and family.
