A Wealth of Common Sense sheds a refreshing light oninvesting, and shows you how a simplicity-based framework can leadto better investment decisions. The financial market is a complexsystem, but that doesn't mean it requires a complex strategy; infact, this false premise is the driving force behind manyinvestors' market "mistakes." Information is important, butunderstanding and perspective are the keys to betterdecision-making.

This book proves howcomplex strategies essentially waste these advantages, and providesan alternative game plan for those ready to simplify.

Complexity is often used as a mechanism for talking investorsinto unnecessary purchases, when all most need is a deeperunderstanding of conventional options. This book explains whichissues you actually should pay attention to, and which ones aresimply used for an illusion of intelligence and control.
