This book looks at the "rules" of investing. Not economic rules, but the rules that the "players" are using, i.e. the broker, brokerage house, and analysts, along with their personal agendas. Until the investor understands the "rules" the other players are using, it's very tough to "win" the game, i.e. accumulate more chips. Stories and illustrations that amuse and educate. |
To execute your trades you need a broker. If you want cheap commissions, $5 a trade for market orders check out Brown and Company. They have excellent customer service. We've used their service and we were quite pleased with its no frills style. We like Fidelity because of the many office locations in New York, very fast execution speed, but their customer service was poor, commissions are a bit high and it's very difficult to determine how much money you have remaining in your account. To get ratings of brokers you can check out Smart Money Broker Ratings. Be careful with the very high commission sites. They will quickly eat your profits if you are trading often. If you want to trade without commissions you should investigate DRIPs or Freetrade.com.
