Product Description:
Are You Anxious About Your Investments?
Relax. You're about to learn how to take the worry out of your portfolio. And it's a lot easier than trying to pick the hottest stock (improbable) or predict market trends (impossible). Whether you're a retiree looking for income with security, a young professional trying to plan for the future, or a baby-boomer who wants to retire on the work of a lifetime, a low-stress approach - and a truly diversified portfolio - will make it happen without the hassles.
Take a deep breath...you just found a better way to invest!
LOW-STRESS INVESTING helps you every step of the way. Where do you want to be? How much time do you have to get there? Financial advisor Andrew Millard's approach takes the guesswork out of building and maintaining your wealth with concise, easy-to-follow guidelines that achieve the results you want with minimal time and effort-and much less stress.
You'll learn how to:
- Adopt - and enjoy - the attitude of a Low-Stress Investor.
- Recognize the difference between real diversification and that practiced by most investors.
- Avoid the stress and confusion of the most common investing myths.
- Keep your portfolio humming along by spending just a few hours.every year!
- Take advantage of the ideal investment vehicle for diversifying your portfolio.
- Balance your portfolio to prosper in up markets and limit damage in down markets.
- Assess the pros and cons of investing on your own versus working with an advisor.
- Follow 10 simple steps to building your ideal portfolio.
The Low-Stress Investing® process isnt anything radical or new in fact, its pretty conservative. If youre looking for a secret get-rich-quick "system," keep looking.
Low-Stress Investing is not a method for timing the markets or picking sure-fire stock winners. It is a common-sense approach based on decades of proven research that you can verify for yourself.

This was a good, quick read. As a person interested in investing in my future with little knowledge to go on, it introduced me to terms and ideas I hadn't previously known. He throws out some common sense about the market. I definitely recommend the book as a good primer to getting started.

I'm a Certified Financial Planner(tm) practitioner who is always looking for good financial books to recommend to friends and people who come to my educational seminars.
