Amazon.com Review:
"Thanks to online communication," say David and Thomas Gardner, founders of the Motley Fool investment Web site, "it is now little-guy investors, not huge-guy brokerage firms, who hold the most valuable cards." The Gardners, narrating their own Guide, lay out their Foolish market-beating techniques like the college economics instructors you wish you'd had. They explain, in everyday language (and with just the right touch of sarcasm), exactly why some people do better than others when they invest their money. Most important, they tell how you can be one of the few who do better. (Running time: 1.5 hours, one cassette) --Lou Schuler

The Motley Fool Investment Guide is all about helping the average investor to succeed in the investment world. And succeed does not mean a get-rich-quick scheme. It is about making good investment decisions based on common sense.
The part that I like the most was when authors explained why mutual funds underperform the general market. First, mutual funds are businesses that make money based on the dollar amount of assets under management. Its managers have plenty of things to do besides ... Read More

David and Tom Gardner are real heroes because they are helping people know more about the great opportunities they have by investing their money in the stock market. I recommend this book to any person who is trying to improve their game as well as people that dont have experience with stocks.
They tell you how stocks work they are not the kind of investment authors that say alot of "how great they are" but intstead they take you and teach you how stock work.
Keep on the good work.

This book dramatically changed how I invest with great results. This is not a book that encourages get-rich quick schemes or will tell you how to "trade" stocks. It will give you the building blocks to create a solid investment portfolio that, over the course of a lifetime will make you wealthy. If you know nothing about the stock market, but are considering moving into this realm or are just wondering if there isn't something better than your underperforming mutual fund THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU.

This book provides different viewpoints for investing, but mainly profiles their strategy: finding those diamonds in the rough. With chapters titled "maybe you should just buy mutual funds" and "maybe you should avoid mutual funds", this book builds up to their main focus: providing good suggestions on valuing companies (with the focus on small cap companies).
Having previously taken finance courses, I found this book as a good refresher. Written in a light hearted manner, this book was pleasing ... Read More
Rating: -
Overall,a well-written, easy to follow, and a solid book for people who attain a basic knowledge about mutual funds and stocks. This book is a must read for people who are interested in learning, exploring and testing stock picking techniques and for people who believe in the importance of doing fundamental analysis (financial ratios,data,etc.)when selecting the right company to invest in. The book offers a useful eight-item checklist that investors most follow when choosing the best small cap growth stocks. ... Read More
