The Little Book of Common Sense Investing: The Only Way to Guarantee Your Fair Share of Stock Market Returns

Another great book for investors. Easy to read but not very long. Packed with good information.

I found Bogle’s advice compelling enough to check out Bogleheads.org. It is a collection of people who feel Bogle is spot on in his investing ideas. Go there for more info and to ask questions. Very worthwhile.

I recommend this book if you want to a good investment future.

A solid introduction to investing with timeless principles like focusing on index funds, minimizing costs, and sticking to the long term. The book emphasizes common sense strategies over chasing trends or stock-picking. While some examples feel a bit outdated, the core message—keep it simple and stay disciplined—still holds strong today.

This book dives deep into index funds and the do's and donts of the investment world. Read it in just 7 days. Great information for the new investor or someone who wants to freshen up on their lingo.

I started learning about the stock market in Jan 2025. I'm self-teaching off YouTube but this book is exactly what I've been needing because all the data (definitions) were still overlapping and confusing. As in what's more important, expense ratio or growth rate, etc. I wanted the bottom line of where to begin as a measuring stick on what is considered good or bad (low or high). This is such an easy book that breaks everything down into A, B, C. SIMPLE!!!

This is the best advice on early investments any person must have IMO, understanding the stock market with quotes from industry titans, analogies and how to start investing you money and even tax free through IRAs, I spent easily $250,000 (granted $50k loss through COVID was one) but as I worked my was through trades, Robinhood, TD Ameritrade, and Charles Schwab, the goal of WS "It's all a fugazi. You know what a fugazi is? It's a fake. It's a whazy. It's a woozy. It's fairy dust. It doesn't exist. It's never landed. It is no matter. It's not on the elemental chart. It's not F*^%ing real." This quote is from the movie "The Wolf of Wall Street" (2013), where Leonardo DiCaprio plays the role of Jordan Belfort. The specific scene is a conversation between Jordan Belfort and Mark Hanna (played by Matthew McConaughey) during a lunch meeting. where the only goal is to bring home cold hard cash through commission! It erodes the wealth of individuals.

Easy read
