Investing Wisdom
Synopsis
What would Wall Street's most successful investors tell their own family and closest friends about money?
In Investing Wisdom, 25 seasoned finance professionals open up about what they tell their closest friends and family when they are asked about investing. Through personal stories and hard-won insights, they cut through the jargon to reveal investment principles and simple, actionable steps they share with those closest to them—from navigating market volatility to avoiding costly mistakes.
At a time when economic education is lacking, Wall Street is getting increasingly complex and as the largest wealth transfer in history is underway, this book bridges the gap between financial theory and real-world success. These aren't generic tips from textbooks; they're the intimate conversations that happen when financial leaders speak from the heart.
Because true investment wisdom isn't necessarily what experts proclaim loudly in public—it's often what they share at the family dinner table or over an intimate coffee with a dear friend.
