Coach Yourself to Success: Winning the Investment Game (repost)

Over the years, Wall Street has repeatedly warned individual investors against managing their own money. This, they say, should be left to "financial professionals." The truth of the matter is that investing is manageable and you can master it on your own.

Joe Moglia, CEO of Ameritrade, knows that today's individual investors have what it takes to make their own investment decisions. All they need to tackle success is a little coaching. And if you think the CEO of one of the world's leading online brokers couldn't begin to understand the financial issues of today's investors, think again. As one of five children born to immigrant parents, Moglia knows what it's like to worry about not having enough money to get by, let alone having money to save and invest. But through hard work and dedication, first as a winning coach in the field of football and then as a leader in the world of finance, Moglia found success. Now, he wants to help you find that same success and does so by explaining the tools and resources available that allow you to construct and execute a personal investment plan that fits your needs.

Filled with in-depth insight and practical advice, Coach Yourself to Success explains the essential principles of investing. Divided into these comprehensive parts, this user-friendly guide first describes the building blocks of investing and the primary types of assets, so you can understand what they are and how they differ from the rest. You'll become familiar with:
