Investing Online for Dummies, 5th edition.......2007-01-10

The delivery was on time. The book is good for me

You don't have to buy this. .......2007-01-03

I came here to write a review for this book, and found that a reviewer below, "A reader", had already written what I was going to write. This book provides a reader with no information, but with long lists of websites to look at. You can access those websites most often just wasting time (like "A reader" already said). Using search engines like Google/Yahoo is much better than thumbing through this book.

Good Concise Overview to Get One Started.......2005-05-15

You can't watch television these days without getting bombarded with ads for on line brokerage companies. What's been missing has been a centralized source for information about the whole thing. This book provides that source. It's not complete - if it were it would be so big that you couldn't carry it around - but it's a great start.

You can read this book from cover to cover in just a few hours. That is, just a few hours if you don't take the time to go out on the web looking at the things she suggests. And that right there is the key to this book. Here is a good start that covers the whole field from A to Z, and at nearly each and every point along the way she points you to web sites for more information about specific points.

The problem with going to the web for more information, of course, is that web sites appear, go away, merge or whatever. She admits this, but accepts this risk and gives you multiple sites (you couldn't possibly visit all that she mentions) or suggests ways to find a missing or dead site.

This is a great way to get the basic information you need before getting started with selecting a broker and deciding what to buy.

Get Up To Speed With New Strategies, Tools and Resources.......2005-04-07

This newest edition of "Investing Online for Dummies" reflects the latest changes and improvements to online investing Web sites. Addresses building an online information system, setting up a basic investment strategy, determining how much to invest, selecting an online broker and trading online, finding the right investments, performing Internet transactions securely, saving on commissions, managing a portfolio, and much more.

A great guide for online investing .......2005-03-22

As I surf the Web, I often feel that it's like visiting a library where all the books have been spilled on the floor. The information is there but I don't know where to begin my search. "Investing Online For Dummies" explained how to get started, steered me to free or low cost online services, pointed out the important parts of Web sites, and showed me the process of online investing.

Shame on Borders for still having this in their store. It is outdated. The concept is great, but all of the suggested websites have been updated. The syntax directives are irrelevant now.

Concise information on a complex and fast-changing subject. The author is committed to helping investors do their own research and make their own decisions. This is a book for people who want to learn about stocks, mutual funds and other investments using the Web; it's not a manual for day-trading or other Web-based short-term strategies.

This book should be required reading for all school people........1998-10-01

The book, which is an easy read, predicts and summarizes what we see beginning to happen in our employment world today. More and more corporations are down-sizing, more people are working at part-time jobs, and out of their homes on a contractual basis, technology is booming causing us to be able to communicate more quickly with each other, and so forth. Boyette very insightfully describes the direction that our culture needs to take to prepare our students to meet the demanding employment world of the future. What is scary is that so few of us foresee, are aware of, and respond appropriately to those demands in our schools, our communities and, politically, in our nation. This book is a "must read" for anyone helping students direct their lives in preparations for the world of work.
