Rating:  Summary: CANSLIM Through the Author's Eyes Review: If Julie Stav's book is an everyday Woman's Guide to Striking it Rich in the Stock Market then William O'Neill's - How to Make Money in Stocks and 24 Lessons for Investment Success must be the man's guide. I was very disappointed that the author did not share with her reader's the Investor's Business Daily newspaper as at least one source for information necessary to complete her BEAPROFIT system. I think she does her readers, male or female, a disservice by not doing so since the majority, if not all, the information necessary to complete her BEAPROFIT system is included in this paper daily. William O'Neill might call this system not BEAPROFIT, but CUINCOURT. This author rivals only Senator Joseph Biden for originality in her work.
Rating:  Summary: DANGEROUS ADVICE Review: If you follow the advice in this book, such as sell your stocks whenever they drop more than 10%, you will become broke!!!Don't take my word for it. Many big-city newspapers and wire services have reported on how dangerous Mrs. Stav's advice really is. With the stock market now so volatile (prices rising and falling quickly), following her advice of selling so often is only gambling...and you will surely lose. To make matters worse, you will owe big taxes and stockbroker commissions by following this terrible advice. But, Mrs. Stav is a stockbroker so maybe her real goal is to get you to hand over your money for her to manage directly. Handing your money over to any stockbroker or financial planner is even more dangerous to your wealth. If you're looking to lose money, this book and Mrs. Stav's advice will help you lose it fast!
Rating:  Summary: Just What It Says It Is Review: If you missed this lady's show on Public TV, don't worry because her book has it all.I finally understand what, who, how, where, which one,and the whens of the stock market. This is very ABC and step by step. Just what I needed. Now if she could write a book on Football the same way....
Rating:  Summary: She breaks it down... Review: Julie really makes investing simple. I thought her book was so good that I recommended it to all of my friends and family. And I just started my own investment club based on her tips. It's also very inspiring to know that a Latina is the author of this book. It's empowering and motivates me to really assume control of my finances. It's about time that people take the initiative in educating our community about how to make their money grow. Gracias Julie por esta contribución.
Rating:  Summary: This book is not just for women Review: Men, this book is very helpful. Don't let the title turn you away. Julie Stav explains how to invest in the stock market in plain english in a easy to understand way. I highly recommend reading it.
Rating:  Summary: This book is useless Review: This book is horrible in its investment advice. You are better off buying an index fund and disregarding the advice in this book. The other reviews are very suspicious and were probably written by friends or associates of the author. There is not one negative comment in anyone's review except for mine.
Rating:  Summary: The only book you need on Investing Review: This book is so easy and simple and short and sweet and to the point that reading it will cause you no trouble and get you motivated and excited about becoming a person who owns stock and does investing! You don't have to know what it is all about before you read this book. It will tell you, and give you a SYSTEM to follow. After you buy the book go to her website. If you get this book you don't need any others. After you have mastered this system and have been investing for a while you will be glad this book got you to where you are!
Rating:  Summary: Great Read Review: This is a great book and Julie's a riot. Even though this book is directed at women, I really enjoyed what it had to teach. Her system for investing and understanding the financial markets is clear and makes sense. As an added bonus, I even learned a bit about the female psyche. So now I have tips to succeed not only with the stock market, but also with the important women in my life! This book is worth the read-buy it!
Rating:  Summary: Outstanding Review: This is the most user-friendly investment book I've read. Ms. Stav has a gift for bringing herself down to a fundamental level to explain the important details of investing. I will be getting Fund Your Future...
Rating:  Summary: Beware of Stockbrokers Looking For New Customers Review: Very hard sell from a woman looking to make commissions from customers. The advice in this book is mediocre at best but her real goal is to confuse readers enough that they will call her and hire her as their broker. The money I paid for this book would have been better spent paying down my credit card debt. JULIE STAV IS THE ONLY ONE WHO WILL "GET HER SHARE" from this book.
