Читать книгу Starting With Shares - Roger Kinsky - Страница 6

In this chapter, I outline what you really need to know about investing in shares so you can get started, covering market unpredictability, the relationship between risk and reward, and what you're actually investing in when you buy shares. I also highlight some of the stuff you don't really need. Are you surprised at that? You might think that the more you know about shares, the greater the profit you'll make when you invest in them. Actually, no evidence indicates that ‘more’ information is necessarily better; in fact, ‘more’ can be worse because you can get bogged down in detail and miss the important stuff. And, as I explain, some great share investing strategies are based on very simple ideas that anyone can apply.

Before I go too much further, however, I'd like you to meet someone who you'll see a lot of through this book.
