"A great book. Charley cuts through the vast and often complicated landscape of investing to boil down building wealth into a few simple, valuable rules. Wealth = growth - cost; where growth is maximized from saving and working...for as long as possible, and cost is minimized through low fees and tax awareness. Sticking with this formula (for a long time) is the key to financial success."

When Charley offers investment advice I pay attention."
