  • Learn to Earn: A Beginner's Guide to the Basics of Investing and Business
    In Learn to Earn, Lynch and Rothchild explain in a style accessible to anyone who is high-school age or older, how to understand a company annual report, and why everyone should pay attention to the stock market. They explain not only how to invest, but also how to think like an investor. Many investors, including some with substantial portfolios, have only the sketchiest idea of how the stock market works. The reason is that the basics of investing - the fundamentals of our economic system and what they have to do with the stock market - aren't taught in school. At a time when individuals have to make important decisions about saving for college and 401(k) retirement funds, this failure to provide a basic education in investing can have tragic consequences.
