Sometimes I think the best thing I can do is to try pass on
some simple decent advice / education about stocks to friends, family, colleagues, pretty much anybody to help them out.
This book by a Time magazine columnist offers eminently practical
advice — mostly for women, but suitable for guys, too — on how to get your personal finances in order, starting with four
simple rules: make a
decent living, spend less than you make, invest the rest, and protect yourself from disaster.
