Rezensionen

"A must-read for the ordinary person investing on the financial markets for the first time. It meets a real need to demystify, explains direct investing rather than through funds and encourages you to save and invest for the long term." John Barrass, former Deputy CEO, PIMFA (Personal Investment Management & Financial Advice Association)
