Gene G. Marcial

Fortunately I read this book before dot com fever took over the world, and although I have participated in buying into a few IPOs I've done so wisely thanks to Marcial. If more people understood what appears to be common sense on Wall Street, there would be fewer investors willing to call themselves Fools with pride.

In time, this book and others like it will become the lingua franca of a sobered investing public. These days it seems like only a sober few know. I'm glad I do.
