Description

‘I’m often asked to recommend a good, basic book on investing, and The Bogleheads’ Guide to Investing has been my go-to pick since its original publication. It focuses on all the right things: the virtues of maintaining a frugal lifestyle, keeping investment costs down, and building a simple, low-maintenance portfolio. And importantly, it also tells investors what they can safely tune out—namely, day-to-day market action and the latest ‘hot’ investment products. Its advice will stand the test of time.’
—CHRISTINE BENZ, Director of Personal Finance, Morningstar, Inc.

‘John Bogle set out to reform the mutual fund industry nearly 40 years ago. He saw a high fee, self-serving, good ol’ boy network and thought it was wrong. Bogle believed the purpose of an investment company was to be investor-focused. His idea turned into a revolution. The Bogleheads’ Guide to Investing is a testimony to the massive changes that have taken place as a result of Bogle’s vision. The ideas in this book have saved countless investors billions of dollars in unnecessary fees. Hats off to Taylor, Mel, and Mike for a job well done.’
—RICK FERRI, CFA, Founder, Portfolio Solutions LLC

The Bogleheads’ Guide to Investing describes a sophisticated and proven approach to successful investing. Nevertheless, its message of saving, investing in a diversified, balanced, low cost portfolio, and keeping it simple is easily grasped by investors of all levels of experience. Regardless of your investment acumen, this book provides many clearly expounded investment insights and is a great roadmap to financial success.’
—GEORGE U. ‘GUS’ SAUTER, Retired Chief Investment Officer, Vanguard

Investing can be simple, but it’s certainly not simplistic. Over the course of nearly twenty years, the followers of John C. Bogle have evolved from a loose association of investors to a major force with the largest and most active non-commercial financial forum on the Internet. The Bogleheads’ Guide to Investing is a hands-on resource for tapping into John C. Bogle’s “uncommon” investing wisdom.

Bogle. Often witty and always wise, the book is filled with sage advice that helps investors take the first step on the road to investment success.
