—James Turk, founder, GoldMoney.com

"This book, with its insights into the current investment climate coincides with what many feel is a new bull market in gold. There is no ′one–size–fits–all′ investment approach, but every investor who applies such preparation and rigor as Greg outlines will certainly have increased returns with fewer losses. It should be on every investor′s bookshelf, handy for reference, and re–read every year. Greg puts paid to the notion of random walk!"
