Asset Allocation For Dummies

An easy-to-understand how-to guide to the single most important thing you can do in investing -- choosing and mixing your assets successfully.

You don't need to be an expert analyst, a star stock-picker, or a rocket scientist to have better investment results than most other investors. You just need to allocate your assets in the right way, and have the conviction to stick with that allocation.

The big secret behind asset allocation -- the secret that most sophisticated investors know and use to their benefit -- is that it's really not all that hard to do.

Asset Allocation For Dummies serves as a comprehensive guide to maximizing returns and minimizing risk -- while managing taxes, fees and other costs -- in putting together a portfolio to reflect your unique financial goals.
