If you are one of those people who would like to invest your money but have no idea where to begin, Alex Richwagen’s Investing Should Be Easy is a book that can help you. It teaches you everything you need to know to create your strategy, starting from the very beginning. In the first chapters, Richwagen summarizes what his readers might already know (a 401K retirement plan, ESPP, and Social Security) and then gives an overview of the different kinds of stocks, risks, and taxes. But it is the second part of Investing Should Be Easy that readers will find compelling. Here, Richwagen explains how to make a good portfolio even though people work and have no time to check it every day.
I consider Investing Should Be Easy a valuable resource. Richwagen reminds his readers that investing should be a long-term strategy, so they cannot expect to become rich overnight. He also warns them about potential risks, and his advice is always useful. What I like the most about Investing Should Be Easy is that it explains basic and advanced concepts in simple terms. With his many examples, Richwagen helps even the most inexperienced reader to understand what is necessary to make a good investment. The author offers excellent recommendations and mentions trustworthy sites and tools. He also makes many suggestions that an aspiring investor will find interesting, especially at the beginning when it is easier to get lost. Investing Should Be Easy is a no-nonsense book, and its thorough analysis is excellent.
