Description
"Kindness, integrity, and common sense can be scarce on Wall Street, but the Bogleheads have each in abundance. Reading The Bogleheads' Guide to Investing is like learning investing from your grandfather. There's a lifetime of wisdom packed into these pages, coupled with a sincere desire to help investors meet their goals. Jack Bogle will be proud!"
-Don Phillips, Managing Director, Morningstar
"The Vanguard Diehards-a.k.a the 'Bogleheads'-are easily the planet's most well-informed, congenial, and successful group of individual investors. At long last, they're letting the general public in on their solutions, their secrets, and their strategies. If you're about to retire, are planning to retire, or are even thinking of retiring, you can't afford not to read this book."
-William J. Bernstein, cofounder, Efficient Frontier Advisors author of The Intelligent Asset Allocator and The Four Pillars of Investing
"More than thirty years ago, John Bogle started a war in the mutual fund industry. His weapon was low fees, and his shield was common sense. In this book, three ardent followers sagely outline Bogle's approach that has benefited millions and will benefit millions more."
-Richard Ferri, CFA, President, Portfolio Solutions, LLC author of All About Asset Allocation and All About Index Funds
"Those investors who have the courage, discipline, and wisdom to follow the sound financial and investment strategies of The Bogleheads' Guide to Investing are virtually certain to achieve results superior to not only the vast majority of individual investors, but the vast majority of professionals as well. What is perhaps more important is that the quality of their lives will be improved because they will have more time to spend on the really important things in their lives."
-Larry Swedroe, author of The Only Guide to a Winning Investment Strategy You'll Ever Need

Persons
Taylor Larimore (Miami, FL), CCL, has been dubbed by Money magazine as "the Dean of the Vanguard Diehards" and John (Jack) Bogle himself calls Taylor "The King of the Bogleheads." Now 81 and retired, he is a Boglehead to the core. He regularly spends hours per day answering questions for free on the Morningstar Vanguard Diehard Forum and, in doing so, regularly preaches the investment religion of Saint Jack. In his mind, his wealth is a direct result of following the time-tested investment wisdom of Bogle, the founder and retired chairman of the Vanguard Group.
Mel Lindauer (Daytona Beach Shores, FL) was dubbed "The Prince of the Bogleheads" by Jack Bogle. He's a Forum Leader of the Vanguard Diehards on Morningtar.com where he's contributed more than 10,000 posts. A former Marine, he started investing in the late '60s and has first-hand experience with both bull and bear markets. Together with Taylor, he initiated and continues to organize the grassroots Diehards' annual meetings. He's been quoted in a number of newspapers and magazines and has appeared on CNN-fn.
