About this listen

Best seller on Amazon!

Do you check your account every day and feel like you're always losing money? Worried the next recession will crash your portfolio? Pulling out your hair, while the daily news fills you with fear?

Then you are a victim of information overload!

This book provides a simple trading strategy to preserve and grow your wealth by filtering the noise to get more valuable information in less time, reducing your stock research and trading effort by over 99 percent, and betting on long-term value creation to achieve financial success!

We are told the money managers on Wall Street who spend all day checking every stock price movement, every CEO tweet, and every company filing footnote have an edge in the stock market....

But the pixelated truth is that information has mathematical limits: zooming into a single blurry pixel of an image tells you nothing about the big picture—the stock market is no different. Spending hours upon hours researching a business teaches you more and more about less and less, until you know everything about nothing! And even if we did know every detail of the business, the laws of nature tell us we can’t predict the future stock price in a complex marketplace anyway!

Consider a different approach: investing for beginners without complicated financial jargon mumbo jumbo. In Stop Checking the Price, you will learn how to:

  • Follow the 1st Law of Investing for maximum long-term compounding.... And why the “risk-return trade-off” is backwards
  • Use the famous "80-20 Rule" to cut your research time and stock trading effort down by 99 percent
  • Filter bad apples (stocks) before they spoil the whole barrel (portfolio)
  • Steal a page from the venture capitalist’s playbook for explosive growth.... And how to beat Warren Buffett!
  • Set a timer and evaluate any stock in 60 seconds from a data snapshot

Don’t get lost in the blurry pixels—ZOOM OUT

A good and short ready reckoner for those who check prices daily or hourly

This book, aptly titled, is a good and short ready reckoner for those who check the stock prices daily if not hourly and then worry about their current or future portfolio. While I don’t personally subscribe to all the topics discussed in the book, the reader or listener can make an educated decision after reading this book as to what suits their lifestyle. One thing is for sure though, if you are a long term investor with retirement as your time horizon, there is one thing you need to do - that is stop checking the price daily.

This audiobook dismantles the myth that more information always leads to better decisions. It encourages you to shift your perspective, to view your investments from a distance and concentrate on what truly matters.

Investing

I love this book! This is Great for the average person in the general population who may want to know how to actively invest in the market, but doesn't have the time or desire to learn so much of the intricate detail of how to do it. This brings what seem so untouchable to most of us to the achievable possibilities. He provides simple strategies relative to picking great stocks, while processing less information. This author provides a rich source of actionable information, without being overwhelmed. I recommend this book to all who have ever thought about investing in the market, but didn't know where to start, and those who may just have a curiosity of the potential.

BEST book on stock investment!

This has to be one of the BEST recent books on stock investing! Stop Checking The Price and start buying great companies.

The author describes the ‘pixelated truth’ for why less is more when it comes to stock picking. While he gives credit to experts like Buffett who read hundreds of pages every morning with coffee, the idea behind the book is that the 80-20 rule allows the rest of us to easily filter out ‘bad apple’ companies as quickly as possible. Practically speaking, that boils down to a few simple numbers that can be found online for any company. I love the analogies throughout that simplify the ideas with a unique twist.

The author has a great sense of humor making this a joy to listen to. He admits this strategy is contrarian, but the book is filled with data and real numbers making the case. There is something in here for both experienced investors and beginners alike interested in the stock market.

The narrator of this audiobook truly shines! His captivating voice adds a layer of enjoyment that enhances the overall listening experience. Highly recommend!
