内容简介 The 'High Rollers', the 'Bag Ladies', the 'Optimists', the 'Coasters', the 'Debt Desperadoes', the 'Ostrich' - each of these defines a certain type of investor. In this unique book, investment expert Jordan Goodman shows readers how to determine their own investor type, and how each type can maximize gains by following his precise investment advice. By categorizing the strengths and weaknesses of each money type, Jordan Goodman tells readers what pitfalls to beware of in their financial planning.
作者简介 Jordan Goodman was on the editorial staff of Money magazine for 18 years and is the author of two bestselling books. He's also the president and CEO of the Jordan Goodman Organization and the on-air host of The Investor's Edge, which is produced by The Wall Street Journal Network.
编辑推荐 From Booklist
Consult Goodman for radical money sense. A former long-tenured Money magazine reporter, he tackles the money issue endemic to Americans according to six psychological types--Strivers, Ostriches, Debt Desperadoes, Coasters, High Rollers, and Squirrels. Each profile is based on the emotional effects of money, whether that involves indifference, its use as a measure of success, or high tolerance of risk. So these psychological examinations feature strengths as well as weaknesses, initial attitudes and suggested changes, individual/couple financial snapshots and anecdotes in narrative and in sidebars, quizzes, and summaries of actions to take. Names are unusually descriptive; Debt Desperadoes are measured by the number of maxed-out credit cards, whereas Squirrels are averse to any spending no matter the reason. Barbara Jacobs
