Publisher's summary

A former janitor and gas station attendant in Vermont, who died a few years ago, surprised everyone by leaving an $8 million fortune to his local library and hospital.

What was his secret, everyone wondered? And the answer turned out to be pretty basic. Because, besides being industrious and frugal, which you may have guessed, he had invested in the stock market throughout the years.

This is actually not as surprising as it may sound. According to a recent World Wealth Report, the wealthy invest the largest part of their money into stocks and businesses. Our wise janitor had simply done what the wealthy do. So he got a similar result. That is, he grew his money into considerable wealth.

And you can do this too. Now, we aren't saying you will make $8 million. After all, this is a beginners book and the janitor had an extraordinary result. But stock market investing is one of the best tools you can use to build a more secure financial future for you and your family.

So are you someone who wants to make money in the stock market? And does that story make you feel excited? Have you tried to understand the stock market, only to be discouraged by how complicated it all seems? And aren't you just a little bit encouraged that an ordinary person, like our janitor from Vermont, could invest in stocks and succeed?

If you answered yes to any of those questions, then this book just might be the solution you've been looking for. Because it will show you just what you need to know, and no more, to start investing in the stock market.

And it will describe all of this for you in simple terms you already understand. Not complicated theory. Not a mind-numbing blitz of technical buzzwords. Just what you need to know and no more. And the few specific steps you can take to get started.

Here's what you will learn:

  • The five big reasons to invest in stocks
  • Simple explanations of the basics of stock market investing
  • Great sources of recommendations to help you pick winners (no complicated research required)
  • The one thing you must do to get started (but you only have to do it once)
  • How to buy and sell stocks
  • Three key strategies to protect your stock investments from big losses
  • And many more invaluable tips on building your stock portfolio

So that by the end of this book, you will be able to buy your first stock. You will know the simple steps to grow your money in the stock market. And start on the your path to a more secure financial future.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Finally… stock investing explained in simple and understandable terms!

I absolutely loved this book. I really didn’t believe that after reading tons of books and listening to tons of financial podcasts that I would ever truly understand stocks. But honestly… this book did it. I’ve already ordered my next book of his to read. Fantastic must-read book for anyone who is truly a beginner with a desire to learn… but with no knowledge whatsoever about the stock market. Thank you!!

A simple way to invest into stocks and become a business owner.

An excellent way to learn how to buy stocks and increase your wealth. This book provides a step by step process for you to open a stock account online and purchase your first stock. Great tips and ideas are shared that will make you excited about stock investing, payment of dividends to you every month or every quarter. After reading this book, I purchased multiple copies for my kids and their friends who are in their twenties so that they can begin the process of investing a portion of their income and growing their wealth.
