Throughout, in addition to his own enormously successful experience, Cramer draws on rigorous research to back up his advice. Jim Cramer is America’s #1 financial guru.

"This book is a fantastic read for any investor!" -Jim Cramer Mutual fund managers, day traders, and other professional investors don't like you. They think they're smarter than you. But they have an Achilles' heel that you, the individual investor, do not. They all focus on the short-term: a day, month, quarter, year. You can afford to invest for the long-term: five, ten, twenty years. You can even emulate Warren Buffett (who held Coca-Cola and Gillette for decades) and think about forever. James Altucher, the acclaimed founder of Stockpickr.com, shows how it's possible to find "forever" stocks-those you can safely buy and hold for at least twenty years. These companies will profit from broad demographic trends and can ride out any short-term market fluctuations. If you create a "forever portfolio" you won't have to look at your investments every day, worry about quarterly economic reports, or panic if the markets plunge 10 percent in a week.

"Foreword by Monsignor James P. Lisante What is it about money that not only makes us feel secure but also drives us to measure our true worth by our financial standing? Whether we've experienced unmet monetary goals, job loss, or outright financial crisis, too many of us have let the stress of financial issues obscure our higher priorities. Taking Stock is a revelatory book filled with the wisdom and practical tools to move toward a lifeview in which success is defined by spiritual clarity, not by the promises money seldom delivers. The author has been through his own rags-to-riches-and-back-to-rags saga, through which he learned money's true place and value. Examples from his own experience and from community and business life are sprinkled with teachings from the world's religions -- not to mention a healthy dose of common sense. To the religious and nonobservant alike, Taking Stock reveals: * the role money plays in our lives * why we envy others for things we don't need * the difference between failure and failing * and how to ""start over"" using new definitions of success and happiness The book closes with Prescriptions for Each Day of the Week, each one an inspiring and beautiful story with a gentle, clear moral. With compassion, humor, and profound wisdom, Taking Stock gives readers not only a way to cope, but also a deep appreciation for what they have -- not what they're missing."

What should your investment strategy be now that the steady, upward trend of the U.S. stock market seems like history? The years ahead promise to be volatile, full of ups and downs, so is this the time for investors to hunker down and scale back? Not at all, is Jim Glassman’s advice. Sure, there were some people who bailed out of the market early and came out ahead, but that was luck—the kind of luck that wins the lottery once in a blue moon: it’s not a strategy. And if there is one clear lesson to be learned from all of the recent market drama, it’s that you need a point of view and a coherent investment strategy. And that’s just what Glassman provides in The Secret Code of the Superior Investor. If you believe that the long-term outlook for the American economy is positive (as Glassman and most experts do), then the best strategy is the tried-and-true approach that has worked well for more than a hundred years: acquiring a diversified portfolio of stocks in great companies and then holding on to them forever. Jim Glassman’s investing principles provide the ballast to help you keep your investing balance no matter how the markets bubble or bobble. His rigorous, practical, straightforward way of thinking and taking action enables you to build a portfolio that performs well no matter what the economic climate. Here is invaluable advice on what stocks and mutual funds to buy—and when to sell them. (Hint: Almost never.)
