-Bottom Line/Personal
In July of 1993, Sheldon Jacobs was one of five nationally recognized
mutual fund advisors chosen by The New York Times for a mutual
fund portfolio competition. The portfolio that he selected produced
the highest return of all contestants for almost seven years, and the
Times quarterly publication of this contest helped him become
one of the best-known mutual fund advisorsin America.
Investing without Wall Street shows investors how to achieve
the greatest wealth with the least effort. It details the five
essentials that even a kid could master and shows that they are all
you need to be a successful investor. With this knowledge, the average
investor can invest on his or her own and make 2,000 more than a
person investing the same way who shares his or her profits with
professionals. This book will teach you how.
Sheldon Jacobs is the author of the first ever
self-help book on no-load mutual funds, Put Money in Your
Pocket. In 1979, he founded the popular investment newsletter
The No-Load Fund Investor, which went on to become the number
one financial newsletter in America for risk-adjusted performance for
a fifteen year period ending in 2006, and for which he is now a
contributing editor. Mr. Jacobs is a member of Bottom
Line/Personal's investment advisory panel, was a founding advisor
to Charles Schwab's Financial Advisory Service Board, and has been
listed in Who's Who in America.
