Packed with lots of information without going into too much detail (at least most of the time). I would definitely recommend it I just got this book the other day and for a money geek like me its a great book that I have trouble putting down.

I asked for it for christmas last year and I was not disappointed. I also agree about how apt the quotations are. The tone isn't too serious but everything is really to the point. I especially liked the beginning where they described 3 different types of people and the 3 step to take before investing. Like you, aged 20 and 1.5 years away from graduation, a lot of it was stuff that doesn't apply (yet). It's good to refer to which is why I decided to get my own copy. I think the tables they used were really easy to access as well. It's a shame that it all applies to the american system (as I'm in England) but it was still a fun read. I'm trying to find an equivalent that discusses investing in England. One thing's for sure. I am going to go with Vanguard Europe for my first investment. I loved this book.

Since I'm in my later twenties, I suppose I'll have to check this out (especially as I do subscribe to the Bogle method of investing). Not a bad review, I suppose.
