Getting started in stock investing and trading.

I have met people who told me that they find it hard to learn fundamental analysis (FA) or technical analysis (TA) by reading books. Some would get bored very quickly and lose interest. Some just find it harder to understand and absorb information presented in writing. For sure, not everybody enjoys reading.

Many of these people who are interested enough in the subject of investing and trading in the stock market could end up signing up for courses which could cost $X,XXX per course. I am not saying that these courses are not good as, indeed, like what a friend told me, some learn better in a classroom environment.

A case of different strokes for different folks? Maybe.

However, if I were to tell these people that there is possibly a book out there which they could find enjoyable to read and, in the process, save them lots of money, would they not give the book a chance? Is there such a book? Yes, I found one recently.

The book is an amazingly fun and engaging read. Each chapter is preceded by illustrations in the form of comic strips!

Example:

The chapters are well organised and bring the reader through fundamental analysis (FA) and technical analysis (TA). Yes, the author marries both schools. As this is something which I have always suggested as the most holistic approach to investing, I highly recommend this book.

See:

The book is obviously written with the beginner in mind. However, any seasoned stock market participant who is in the FA or TA camp would find this book a worthwhile read if he is willing to keep an open mind.

The book is now available for order from BetterWorldBooks. With every book ordered, a book will be given to the poor.

Iron Man 3.

I enjoyed "Iron Man" the movie. I also enjoyed "The Avengers". I am definitely going to watch "Iron Man 3" as well.

In "Iron Man 3", Tony Stark finds his personal world destroyed at his enemy's hands, he embarks on a harrowing quest to find those responsible.

With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him.

As he fights his way back, Stark discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?

I like movies which pack a punch, provide food for thought and inspire the audience.

When we are down and out, we are only really down and out if we believe we are down and out.

Unless we are seriously disadvantaged in some way, it is never too hard to improve our lots in life.

If you like what I like, watch "Iron Man 3":
