Opinion of a 40yr old: Read and Gift this to all ages asap, read this all ages!!!
Professor Allan, many thanks to you and “Chapeau”! I wish I was one of your lucky students!! Many books we/i found myself pushing through to read and often tough to keep interest in reading, you sir have a true talent!! One of the easiest, simplest, entertaining and to the point styles. Written with purpose and compassion! Wealthy education for anyone who can read, any age, the younger the better but never too late (I am in my 40’s). I am only on page 88 out of 230 and I had to write because it is well deserved! For the person who reads this review, I hope u will enjoy as much as I and share it with many because many countries seem keen to educated us away from the intelligence of economy.

Let go of financial anxiety!
I struggled with financial anxiety and just found investing in the stock market intimidating and confusing. The only investment I made was in a RRSP with little grasp of the target date index fund. This book explains the key concepts in a very simple manner and patronizes diversified index funds, for good reason, based on historical data that the author presents. The only criticism I have of the book is that the author spends way too much time opposing active mutual funds. Other than this, an excellent book. If you don’t know where to start, pick this book up. It gives good advise to get started and stay the course in passive investing.

Great for beginners
For most, this book is essential. The book explains a simple, self-managed approach to index fund investigating. It argues (successfully, in my opinion) that this approach will beat almost all others, and is the most consistent, least risky way to ensure your savings work for you and provide stable and dependable growth over the long term. I also found it helped me understand the role that bonds play in the couch potato approach.Sure, it could probably be summarized in a few pages, but it reads well and at just over 200 pages, isn’t a big ask.If you’re new to investing or looking to change up your strategy to something less time consuming, it’s a solid read. If you already know what you’re doing, this probably won’t add much.

A plain honest book for novice investors on Stock Market Indexing
The Millionaire Teacher is a book for all kinds of investors, especially young investors about getting started to invest in the stock and bond market while keeping fees and commissions to a minimum.The Author focuses solely on buying index funds and index ETFs this keeping your portfolio simple yet diversified.Therefore this is not a book for picking stocks or mutual funds or getting rich quick.It is a well researched book with citations after each chapter. I believe the author is honest in his approach. However just like everything in life, what suits one investor may not be wholly effective for another.The 2016 version is updated to include Indexing strategies for Canadians, British, Australians and Singaporeans. The author has done a great job in researching each market and providing relevant information. Though I feel fund recommendations will need frequent updating with market conditions.The book is a keeper for me.

Amazing book
This is an amazing book. If you want to start investing (or are already investing but are not sure if you’re doing it right) then this is for you. The main point the author makes is that rather than buying actively managed mutual funds which end up being very costly, you buy index funds and index bonds which are much cheaper and usually have better returns over the long term. It tells you how to balance your portfolio and what to avoid when it comes to financial advisors and the products they try to push on you. This is not the kind of book that will help to get you rich fast. It teaches you how to gain a lof of money over a 20 or 30 year span. I had no idea about investing before I read this, and now I am looking forward to starting.

THIS SHOULD BE A GRADE SEVEN TEXTBOOK ON PERSONAL INVESTMENT
I’m a little late starting at 88 years, but I believe there is still time to get some benefits of compound interest. Kids need to start early to learn how to save and invest and I think this is a great starter.

A Must Read Book for Canadians
I picked this book up last year and I cannot recommend this book enough to average Canadian. Before reading this book I was terrified of loosing everything in a bad investment and as a result I kept my entire life savings in a very low interest savings account. The book really demystified investment strategies and stock market lingo which gave me the knowledge and confidence I needed to build a good investment portfolio for retirement.I’m thankful I finally read this book before I turned 25 as it gives me a lot of time to benefit from compound interest, but it still feels like I missed out on a lot of time. In hindsight I wish I had read this book the moment I got my first job out of university.

A must read. Explains how to build savings the most effective way and is a really enjoyable and informative read to boot. It’s changed how I save for the future and I’ll make sure my kids read it too.

The short summary is index investing is better than all the other options available in the market. Good for beginners in their investing journey but there was nothing new that I learnt from the book.

Quite good introduction to the topic for someone who has no idea about it
