Andy Martin takes a difficult subject like asset allocation and risk reduction, and offers practical, sustainable, and compelling advice for investors old and young. Although purportedly aimed at individual investors, institutions and financial advisors can also gain much from the wisdom in this book.
Jack Tierney, Executive Director, Invesco Unit Trusts
What is investment risk and why do we automatically assume that it always leads to reward? This book answers those crucial questions. It also effortlessly assassinates populist conventional wisdom. Open any page of this book and you will be simultaneously educated and enlightened. Both individual investors and financial professionals will greatly benefit from Andy’s wisdom.
Ron DeLegge II, Founder & Chief Portfolio Strategist ETFguide.com
Andy Martin’s book is highly enjoyable and readable for the individual investor and investment professional. He provides a unique perspective of profitable investing that we can all learn from.
Victor Ricciardi, co-editor of the book Investor Behavior: The Psychology of Financial Planning and Investing
Andy Martin presents some very useful investing advice, such as the shocker that risk—however measured—does not buy you higher returns. Like Odysseus tying himself to a mast to avoid the tempting Sirens, we benefit from anticipating our biases doing simple things like outsourcing our investment tactics. Most people who are good at making money are inefficient investors, and would be better served by the few principles covered in this book.
