"really engaging and well written story. recommended by a friend who is seldom wrong about good books. A bit of magic in a medieval times story, with royalty, intrigue, villans and heros. But contemplative and deep too."

"a little dated, but still very relevant about how hedge funds invest, and how the SEC can't regulate much of anything. a good read for people who follow investing and the power of wall street so they can be better armed when entering the market against the pro's."

"While I don't love all his screaming on his TV show, his advice is really useful. Over the years he has made me a better investor, and enabled me able to save for retirement successfully. It is work, but rewarding. He tells the truth as he sees it, and is MUCH better at explaining and offering advise than all the idealogical clowns on CNBC. He really does care about the average investor, who Wall Street sees simply as a good source to fleece for profits. All his books are well worth reading."

"a bit horrifying to read how obvious the comming crisis was, and how poorly everyone reacted. Full of detail and explanations for the person who wants to know why this happened. An indictment of them all!"
