Nearly 8 trillion dollars were lost after the dot.com bubble and the ensuing stock market sell-off between 2000 and 2002. This bubble caused life-style changes for pre-retirees and caused 10 Wall-street broker firms to pay off 1.4 billion to unhappy investors in settlements. It has become clear that one must manage one's financial affairs and try to do a better job doing it. Personal application of Modern Portfolio Theory and unique Money Management ideas in this book will help the reader to plan better.
