  • Great for most people. Missing some important info
I'm a tax nerd and thought this was a good 101 book, but it's missing some very important information that I want to highlight: - When discussing treasury products, the author fails to mention I-bonds. I-bonds are bi-annually adjusted for inflation and may even return interest in addition to inflation adjustments. After 1 year, they can be redeemed for a marginal fee, no fee after 5 years. They are an excellent for building emergency funds despite the 10-15k limits. - The author asserts mutual funds are generally the best investments but doesn't specify what types. I would have preferred to see the tickers of low expense ratio, total market encompassing mutual funds or ETF's listed. History shows passive market index funds like VTI (US), VXUS (international) are the best ways to invest in the stock market unless you're Warren Buffett. By the way, Warren Buffett suggests you invest in low fee index funds. - Does not address taxation enough! Author makes a passing mention to short-term capital gains vs long-term but does not elaborate. If you're going to recommend people open a taxable brokerage account, you should at least inform them that gains under 1 year will be taxed at ordinary income brackets while long term gains (greater than 1 year) will generally be taxed at 15% or 0% if you don't make much money. FICA (social security or medicare) taxes do not apply to capital gains either. Some other small but important tax tips would have been helpful like how to avoid wash sales and where to optimally place foreign stocks (typically in a brokerage account, so you can reap a tax deduction). ... show more
