| Summary |
Explains why we should stop thinking about top-rated stocks and mutual funds, shifts in interest rates, and predictions for a failing economy. Stop trying to beat the stock market average, which few "experts" ever do. Instead, just remember three simple principles: Don't put all your eggs in one basket. There's not such thing as a free lunch. Save for a rainy day. |
