 Great foundations for investing! December 26, 2008
Warren Dane
Peter Lynch offers a very simple philosophy to be a successful investor. A must read for wall street enthusiasts!
Great book, definitely recommend! December 24, 2008
J. Kirkpatrick (WV)
Being an 19-year-old beginner investor, this book is exactly what I was looking for. It strengthened my foundation on the basics and helped me establish what ratios and statistics to look for when evaluating a stock. I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking to build a foundation at such a great time. He uses a lot of examples and it's really an easy read. Nothing gets too technical and he has a good sense of humor that flares up frequently throughout the book.
Changes the Way You Think About Investing: If You Want to Be an Individual Investor, You Have to Read this Book November 23, 2008
Andrew Chang: 7-Hour School Week and Health, Wealth, Truth (Bay Area)
Amateur investors have "numerous built-in advantages, which, if exploited, should result in outperforming the market and the experts."
Peter Lynch, America's number-one money manager of Fidelity's multibillion-dollar Magellan Fund, shows the layperson how to use what they already know to outperform the "experts" and to create investments on businesses that really matter.
One up Your Investment Knowledge November 16, 2008
TDM (Colorado Springs, CO)
Peter Lynch wrote a classic with One Up on Wall Street. Peter Lynch was lead investment manager of the Magellan Fund, which is arguably the most successful large $ mutual fund in the US. He no longer manages the fund but in his book he lets us in on some of his secrets of choosing stocks.
His approach is rather simple. Buy stock in something that you know. As a consumer and a personal investor we have the ability to know products before anyone on the street knows about them. For example he got in on the stock Yum Brands because he bought a Taco Bell burrito years ago when it first came out. He believed that their set up and approach would work and so he put some money into the company.
His suggestions like listening to things Oprah likes are great simple tips that a typical investor may not even realize we have more information on than wall street on a daily basis. His book is a read for all investor types from beginner to advanced. Enjoy!
 Kicking the Tires October 11, 2008
J. Hall
I struggled with the 1st 74 pages or so, but after that this book is excellent. There is a section he titles Kicking the Tires, in short he goes over how to evaluate a company and to stay away from the 1-2 year fly away companies. I remember when everyone was selling Apple back in the day, Peter did the opposite and started gobbling up shares. As he somewhat states, the wheels on Apple were still good.
