Author Goes Against Traditional Grain with Straight Shooting, Enlightening Book on Investing ABOV

Sept. 24, 2009 - PRLog -- Nashville, Tenn.—Paul Winkler, The Investor Coach, has released his first book designed to educate any and all investors—those who have entrusted their financial futures to the many investment firms across the country and those just starting out.  One of Paul’s book endorsers, economist Charlie Wheelan, Ph.D. of the University of Chicago succinctly states, “When it comes to personal finance, what you don’t know CAN hurt you.”  

The goal of ABOVE THE MADDENING CROWD…How to Avoid Being Destroyed by the Wall Street Marketing Machine is to correct misconceptions that keep investors handicapped and in the dark about their investments.  Truth, not just knowledge is power.  

In his book, Winkler discusses several key points, including:
•   Four investing myths that Wall Street wants you to believe;
•   Solutions for breaking the cycle of fear-based investing;
•   Misleading industry marketing strategies to watch for that sabotage investor success;
•   How to see through the rhetoric and invest with confidence, regardless of the economic climate!!

Easy to read, witty and laid out in a format which won’t bore readers, this book opens with The Investor’s Dilemma—a seven step cycle which traps unsuspecting investors.  How to escape this cycle and clear, concise answers to the problem are then discussed--with a summary and quiz at the end of each chapter. (Don’t worry, though—the answers are in the back!)  Truly, this book is a must read that should be incorporated in everyone’s library—from the seasoned investor to the new—especially for those who’ve been distressed or confused by their recent portfolio performance.

Quotes from American icons are dropped in throughout the book such as Benjamin Franklin’s statement, “An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest.”  And Paul doesn’t mind using harsh, telling quotes from the likes of the Wall Street Journal to make his point, “We learned quite some time ago that the real business of Wall Street often consists of introducing people who shouldn’t buy securities to people who shouldn’t sell them.”

Aptly put, Tom Black, Sales Trainer and Author of The Boxcar Millionaire shared, “Paul Winkler bridges the gap between Wall Street and the average investor.”
