Fred Schwed, Jr., was a professional trader who had the good sense to get out after losing a bundle (of mostly his own money) in the 1929 crash. Some years later, Schwed published a children's book titled Wacky, the Small Boy. Wacky became a bestseller, and Schwed went on to draw further on his experience in writing Where Are the Customers' Yachts? His publisher said of him, "Mr. Schwed has attended Lawrenceville and Princeton and has spent the last ten years on Wall Street. As a result, he knows everything there is to know about children."
"Once I picked it up I did not put it down until I finished ...What Schwed has done is capture fully-in deceptively clean language-the lunacy at the heart of the investment business."-From the Foreword by Michael Lewis, Bestselling author of Liar's Poker This hilarious portrait of everyday Wall Street and its denizens rings as true today as it did when it was first published in 1940. Writing with a rare mixture of wry cynicism and bonhomie reminiscent of Mark Twain and H. L. Mencken, Fred Schwed, Jr., skewers everyone including himself in his brilliant send-ups of bankers, brokers, traders, investors, analysts, and hapless customers. "How great to have a reissue of a hilarious classic that proves the more things change the more they stay the same. Only the names have been changed to protect the innocent." -Michael Bloomberg President, Bloomberg, LP "...one of the funniest books ever written about Wall Street."-Jane Bryant Quinn, The Washington Post "It's amazing how well Schwed's book is holding up after 55 years. About the only thing that's changed on Wall Street is that computers have replaced pencils and graph paper. Otherwise, the basics are the same. The investor's need to believe somebody is matched by the financial advisor's need to make a nice living. If one of them has to be disappointed, it's bound to be the former."-John Rothchild, Author, A Fool and His Money Financial Columnist, Time magazine "A delightful classic and reminder of excesses past and how little things change." -Bob Farrell, Senior Vice President, Merrill Lynch
今天无意之中翻了翻长投app,里面解读《用户的游艇在哪里》。之前看了一遍,但完全只是看了一遍,没读明白,也不知道为啥它会变成如此经久不衰的书。听了解读才明白,它值得被推广至今。 书里面讲了追涨杀跌以及投机心态,即便最初赚到了钱,也会导致最终输得倾家荡产,血本无...
評分这是我目前读过的几本理财书籍中感觉到最难读的一本。 听了好几遍音频,吸收的内容比较破碎,不晓得主要内容是什么。 真正阅读时,感到有些枯燥,读得很慢。 接着采取边听音频边阅读方式,还是没有效果。 后来看了主要内容和一些书评后,对本书有了大体的了解。要求自己静下心...
評分翻译得不好~读起来没什么感觉 读起来如同嚼蜡 丝毫没有一种读到好书时候的喜悦和激动 这本书和 彼得林奇的成功投资不能比 虽然封面看起来是同一系列的书 还有校对没有审出来的错误 或者是翻译错误~ 总之~ 我觉得翻译们的水平实在是~~~ 虽然据说这三位翻译都有金融...
評分#我以为能“存活”五十年以上的书都起码有点信息量,直到这本,我发现我错了。五十多年前的梗太难get了,翻译的又不接地气,也没有注释之类的来解释。 信息密度小,又没有趣,这就是这本一百多页的小书给我的感受。 以下为书摘: 1、股票经纪人通过他对未来的预测来影响顾客,...
