First check what sub you’re in, then ask for advice according. In this sub you ask which glue tasted better or ask for crayon recommendations

Yep. I believe it’s available by pdf online but I prefer hard copy. Found it in a thrift store!

Is it friendly to new investors

I’m by no means experienced and it’s a bit over my head at times. It’s an easy enough read but I’d start with Bogle and get the basics down (DCA’ing, simple diversification, index fund investing etc)

It’s a great fuckin book no doubt and has tons of value to new investors…but you’ll get roasted in the sub for admitting you can read, I know these things only because a friend told me

There’s no pictures, no memes, no rocket emoji, so this book no good for new investors. Graphs aren’t even colored, i had to color it myself

This is the one book I wish I read first before investing. If you want to see if this is the book for you, read page 537 right away to see if something "clicks".

Are you being serious. No one in this sub is ever serious

It's good, but hasn't been updated since the dot-Com bubble. Random Walk Down Wallstreet is better in that regard. I highly recommend both.

That book was the first wsbs but in old English written by one fucktart. My favorite is when he tells a story about ancient apes going bonkers on ticket master ipo. Apes back in the day went bonkers buying up the wrong ticker that was a communications company that was going bankrupt cuz those regards though it was the ticket master ticker. Lol it’s a great book about fucktarts, but in old English and boring as fuck Shakespeare shit. It’s like a memoir of dumbasses through out history of the markets. Apes used to count card board boxes to predict Santa Rally’s etc etc lol any thing you can think off it’s been done. Even the card board man getting a cut to not show too many or show extra boxes
