Description
Is there life after mutual funds? The authors believe so, and think that the "next big thing" for baby boomers is Managed Money. The Wealthy Boomer is a guide to smart investing that looks beyond the current mutual fund mania. It will help the investor weather fluctuations in the stock market and ensure consistently high returns. The authors train readers to look critically and perceptively at mutual fund marketing techniques and help mutual fund investors evaluate the performance of their funds and consider a wide range of investment alternatives. The Wealthy Boomer presents alternatives to some mutual-fund investments, and suggests potential supplements to others. Illustrated throughout with cartoons and graphics, the accessible text and case studies are designed for both the private investor and mutual fund advisors.
