I write for the individual investor.
I write articles, books, and other materials for people who want to profit
through their own stock investing. As individuals with full lives, they have
other demands on their time or don't know how to get started. I present
straightforward methods for picking stocks, valuing them, and managing a
stock portfolio. I target both beginning and experienced investors alike.

I write articles, books, and other materials for people who want to profit

stock portfolio. I target both beginning and experienced investors alike.
The people I write for want to:
- Build wealth or create immediate income streams. My target audience is
optimistic but not irrationally exuberant. They are realistic but believe (correctly)
that an individual investor has a good chance to succeed in the stock market. - Do their own stock investing. My goal is to help self-directed individuals with a
do-it-yourself mentality. You needn't be a math whiz or have business training to
become an intelligent investor. In fact, individual investors often have certain
advantages over Wall Street pros. - Minimize risk and maximize returns. My philosophy leans toward loss control.

returns. - Pick great stocks. There are usually clear differences between great companies
and lousy ones. Click here for an article on this subject. And remember, not every
great company is a great investment--it needs to be priced right, or else it's no
bargain. - Cut through the complications of stock investing. I emphasize
"sophisticated simplicity" for the time-pressed individual. Road maps, tools, and
easy-to-use look-up tables help you translate data into actionable information. No
prior knowledge of financial or investing concepts is required. - Have rationality triumph over emotion. Many investors fail because they make
uninformed snap judgements or "fall in love" with a stock. I'll help you not to do
that. Click here for an article about self-defeating emotions in investing. - Learn a straightforward way to value stocks. Recognizing what's a good
price and a bad price is a key skill in successful investing. I'll show you how. Click

goal is for you to understand. Good investing concepts aren't secrets--they are
simply things you should learn if you want to be a competent investor. - Know when to buy, hold, and sell. That's what it comes down to--making good
decisions in a timely fashion. - An approach that is not tied to a single blockbuster idea, magic formula,
"#1 Rule," or secret. I write for sensible people. Look elsewhere for hyperbole,
extravagent claims, and the like. You won't find them here. - Have fun investing. Going back to the first bullet point above, building wealth or
creating an immediate income stream is fun, don't you think?
