Product Description

Product Description

Tells of Jonathan Maitland's attempts to get rich by buying and selling shares from his own front room on the Internet.

From the Publisher

The Diary of a Share Trader
In a remarkable phenomenon, tens of thousands of Britons have started to buy and sell stocks and shares over the Internet. By 2003, it's thought that three million people in the UK will have personal online accounts. And lots of people are - apparently - making lots of money out of it.

On Tuesday, January 4th 2000, TV broadcaster Jonathan Maitland had an idea. He would mortgage his house for £50,000 in order to try and turn it into £1,000,000 in the next twelve months via the Internet.

This is the diary of his attempt to do just that.

As well as being an invaluable 'how to' guide, packed with useful information, HOW TO MAKE YOUR MILLION FROM THE INTERNET is the funny and fascinating story of a self-confessed e-dunce who becomes a man obsessed. A fanatic whose single-minded quest begins to affect his personal life in unexpected - and often hilarious - ways.

Will he - or won't he - make a million? Only one way to find out.

'Laugh, learn . . . and bite your nails. Excellent stuff' Adam Faith

'Jonathan Maitland is absolutely the last person I would set loose in cyberspace with money. Please, above all, please don't read this anywhere near a mouse that can click. Terrifying.' Charles Nevin, The Independent

'As someone not wildly interested in the Internet or stockmarket, I didn't expect to enjoy a book about both. But from the start I was drawn in . . . It's like, I imagine, having Jonathan Maitland talk to you in the corner of the pub . . . with the added advantage that you can shut the book up every so often.' Alistair McGowan

3.0 out of 5 stars Funny and enjoyable but not a great guide, 19 Oct 2003
By A Customer
It was an enjoyable read and one that I really could not put down but if you are serious about investing I would not read this book or maybe read it and use it as a How NOT to guide. Also considering the subject of the book there was far to much about his love interest which began to get boring more than once.

5.0 out of 5 stars Read this before you invest!, 1 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: How To Make Your Million From The Internet (Paperback)
I agree with the other reviewers. I read this at one sitting, you just can't put it down until you get to the end. As a newcomer to share dealing myself, it's good to find a book that anyone can understand without having to wade through all of the usual jargon. I laughed out loud several times which has to be unusual for a book concerned (mostly) with financial matters. Excellent. I hope Jonathan writes more books in future.
