Publisher Description
John C. Bogle’s The Little Book of Index Investing is a power-packed explanation of why outperforming the market is an investor illusion. Instead, the founder of The Vanguard Group—the man who’s been called “the conscience of the investment industry”*—recommends a simple, time-tested investment strategy that can deliver the greatest return to the greatest number of investors: indexing. Why? Investing is a zero-sum game where transaction costs, taxes, poor investment diversification, and poor market-timing (an affliction for most investors) hurts your portfolio more than it helps. Indexing eliminates that hurt. Bottom-line, if you can’t be an index, why not invest in one? And you’ll be all the happier and richer for it. *Time Magazine

“If you have heard of index investing and want to learn more from one of the founding fathers…this is one of the books you should read. The math content is not overwhelming in this book and the language is manageable for someone new to the topic of investing.
