The Modern Baseball Card Investor by Jeff Hwang Pdf

"In the wake of the great baseball card bubble of the late 1980s and early 1990s - a time period in which new baseball card issues were wildly overproduced - everybody knows that modern baseball cards are worthless, and that valuable cards are strictly a vintage thing. And yet, many of the most valuable cards of the last 40-50 years have been printed in the last five to ten years ... Indeed, the investment profile of the modern baseball card and sports cards in general has improved dramatically over the past 20 years. In The Modern Baseball Card Investor, Jeff Hwang explains why, and shows you how you, too, can get in on the game"--Amazon.com.

Some Guidelines for the New Investor by Darrell D. Young Pdf

Some Guidelines for the New Investor By: Darrell D. Young Money: it’s nice to have and not so nice if you don’t have any. This book is written with retirement in mind, that time in which there is no longer a regular paycheck coming in and we are reduced to living on Social Security and/or a pension, if we are lucky. Some reports state that nearly a quarter of all Americans have less than $10,000 saved for their golden years. That’s one out of every four of you who are going to have to scrimp because you did not save when you could have. Quite frankly, that is not going to do it, as there is no wiggle room for travel, or catastrophic illness, or if your rowboat with its expensive motor just sank in the middle of the lake, or whatever. Therefore, you need a financial cushion – and the bigger the better.
