1001 Financial Words you Need to Know

The book provided basic terminalogy. I found an explanation of abb. very helpful. Many of the terms with which I was already familiar became much clearer in definition.

A Welcome Addition to My Shelf

David Bach's writing style is clear, direct and informative. I thought this book delivered exactly what the title represented plus a little more. I refer to it frequently while reading other investment books. I also found his lists of money mistakes people make and the steps for retirement planning helpful. If you are new to investing and looking for a reference book, this is the best I've found.
