The Skeptic’s Guide to Investing By Ramon DeGennaro, The Great Courses AudioBook summary
Many of us think of the stock market as an arcane system and of investing as a mysterious art form. The truth, however, is that stock and bond markets are a lot like other markets (including your familiar grocery store) and that investing your hard-earned money in them can reap rewards—so long as you know the economic principles behind them.
Satisfy the financial skeptic in you with The Skeptic’s Guide to Investing, a six-lecture Audible Original where you’ll learn how financial markets operate so you can become a wiser, savvier, safer investor. Along with a deep look at the inner workings of these powerful markets, Professor Ramon P. DeGennaro offers a wealth of insight into investment strategies, whether you’re already a stockholder or thinking of investing for the first time.
You’ll explore when the time is right to make a new investment; how to allocate your investments to fit your personal financial goals and needs; and how to manage your portfolio so the tax man gets as little as legally possible. You’ll also examine common investing mistakes people make and how to avoid them; the difference between good and bad deals; the art of making calculated investment risks; and even how to soften the financial (and emotional) blow if things don’t go as well as you’d hoped.
