A little background on where this review is coming from: I am halfway through this workbook, I have never read the other books of the Gardner brothers, but decided to post a comment about this one since what I have read so far is pretty good. I am currently studying personal financial planning and investment options. In my view, this book is a good starter. The approach is fun and easy, the humour used by the authors in their writing makes the topic much easier to digest. Other pluses are: you encounter the tables and exercises just as you need them-- so that exercises and illustrations/examples of calculations are done with the flow of the whole book. Also, the questionnaire that determines your risk level is pretty innovative. And the workbook gave me a great refresher of my college accounting course. But most of all, the pages I have read make GOOD COMMON SENSE. And this is what will help the novice investor to lay down a solid foundation for financial planning and investing. If you are a beginner in the world of investing, get this book. You won't regret it. :)

general overview is outstanding, but in chapter 8 the answer to q10 page 134 doesn't jive,also -( the shares outstanding should not have a $ sign);;; Q10 618--246 = 372 then divided by 618 is about 60% a better gross margin according to page 132, section 3, maybe i'm doing this wrong? I've made a few changes in my portfolio because of this book (easy to convince) i'm more into index funds, have done the (rp) foolish 4 and am into doing better with other stock choices. Going through the book is not easy, but it is remarkable how much i have learned using it and on-line information. thank you very much, undble

I have read many investment books and this book has the clearest explanation of understanding a companies annual report. It shows you the formulas to apply to the report to determine if the company may be having problems or ready to really go!
Many examples to make sure that you are getting it. Loved this book.
