I’ve been high-profile trading and investing successfully for a very long time now and while I’ve got no magic bullet for you, I am quite confident you will become a better investor and trader by reading and following the lessons offered in this book.For this book, I’ve drawn upon everything I’ve learned over the years on Wall Street. I’ve worked with people who have made billions, and I’ve also seen people lose billions. I have interviewed hundreds of CEOs, Senators, Congressmen, celebrities. And most importantly, I’ve also spoken to tens of thousands of everyday people from all walks of life about how they manage their money, and I’ve helped them get a handle on what they’re doing. I’ve personally made a lot of money in the markets for a lot of people, although like anybody else, there have been other times I’ve lost money. I’ve tried to cover every topic in a way that will be helpful for the average Joe, but I guarantee that every investor and trader, no matter how experienced and successful, will find a lot of gems in here too. We’ve presented the information in a Q&A format that I hope makes the content accessible and enjoyable. There’s also a glossary of key terms, concepts and phrases and a helpful bibliography of suggested further reading for those of you who want to dig deeper. You can never be too educated when it comes to your money. A couple things not to expect in this book — a magic silver bullet or immediate short-term gains in your portfolio. This book is to help you make big money and protect your capital over the next 10,000 days, not the next 100 days. The key is to get more investments and trades right than wrong over our entire investment/trading career and to maximize our gains in those we get right while minimizing our losses in the trades and investments we get wrong.
