    The Best Guide to Getting Started Investing You’ll Find Anywhere

     

    What Does Your Retirement Look Like?

     

    If you are like most Americans, you don’t know how you’re are going to retire. Pensions have almost completely disappeared and the financial future of Social Security has many worried. This book shows you how to take control of your own future by teaching you the fundamentals of investing.

     

    Many people are afraid to put their hard earned money in the stock market because they don’t want to lose it all. This book shows you how to invest your money for growth instead of treating the stock market like a slot machine and just hoping to get lucky.

     

    Inside the book you will discover:

     

    The basics of what the stock market is and how it works

    The differences between passive and active investing

    The differences between stocks, bonds, and cash

    All about mutual funds and other types of funds

    What you need to know about the economy to make good investments

    How to plan for retirement

    All about risk

    And Much More

     

    This quick start guide will help you go from knowing very little about investing to being confident in starting your own investment in your retirement.

     

    If you are looking for a get rich quick scheme, this book isn’t for you. But, if you want to learn about how to invest and the best ways to plan for your retirement, this book will start you on the path of taking control of your own future.

     

    The sooner you get your copy, the sooner you can start your personal investment education. Don’t wait another second.

      Discipline Goes A Long Way

      Mar 31, 2022

      The life of a trader is not what most of us might imagine it to be – that is, glamorous, exciting and paved with gold. More likely it is solitary, private, a bit boring and, when done right, provides a living. We could all be traders. We could all be

      Financial Knowledge Is Power Only If You Apply It

    About The Author

    My name is David Cohne and I started the Introduction to Investing Series of books. The rapid decline of the traditional pension has left most Americans to fend for themselves when it comes to their investments and retirement planning. Stagnant wages combined with rising prices have put a real burden on Americans to make ends meet. There is a real lack of affordable financial education at a time when personal finance topics are becoming more and more complex. Young people are burdened with student debt while older people are facing retirement with less than adequate savings.  So this book series is an educational tool for Americans to learn about important financial topics.

    I have spent over 15 years providing investment research to Financial Writers and Portfolio Managers. I have previously served as Executive Vice President & Managing Director of Research at an investment consulting firm where I oversaw the development and implementation of investment strategy for the firm. I also served as Vice President of a financial publishing firm. I started my career as an Assistant Portfolio Manager at an investment management firm. I received an undergraduate degree in Economics from Brandeis University and an MBA from the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University. I reside just outside of Boston, Massachusetts.

    Free Gift

    As a special bonus for ordering this book, I’m providing you free access to a special insiders-only financial newsletter where you will get actionable financial advice each week. In addition, I've I put together a guide called The 10 Minute Retirement Plan which reveals simple steps to follow so you can make sure you have enough money for retirement. Inside you’ll discover the 8 Long Term Planning Steps and 5 short term actions to implement to make sure you are ready for retirement when the time comes.

    Getting Started With Investing

    The Stock Market

    The stock market is an exchange or marketplace where people can buy and sell shares of stock in companies. When you buy a share in a company, you are owning a piece of that company. You want the company to make a lot of money, in the hope that the shares of your stock, will increase in value, and in turn, make you more money. There is a lot of speculation in the stock market. There are investors who buy shares of a company, in the hope that it will perform well in the future. There are also investors who sell shares of a company, when they believe that the company will perform poorly in the future. A company's performance can help determine the value of a stock share, but not the price. The stock price is determined by the market itself. If an investor is willing to pay a certain amount for a stock, then that is what dictates the price.
