Dun & Bradstreet Guide to $Your Investments$ 1998

This is really a terrific resource, especially for an investing novice like myself. I would urge anyone who wants to start investing and have no clue how too get this book. It clears up so much confusion and answers so many questions. Its paid for itself and then some already.

This book (which comes out in an updated version every year) is a great way to learn about financial planning, investing, and so forth. The lessons inside can (and SHOULD) be used by anyone.It might seem overwhelming at first, because it's over 400 pages. Take it in little bits and pieces. It's easy to read, explains all the different things you can do in investing, and broken down in such a way that it works for small investors or big ones, for long-term retirement planning or for "how to live right now" type financial stuff.

When it comes to investing, whether in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, Treasuries, CDs, real estate, or marbles (yes, marbles), you've got to know the territory. To do that, get this guide -- the best written, most complete, easiest to understand, regularly updated book on investments.
