This book could be the best book on investing ever written for 401(k) or IRA investors. It is the book that Wall Street doesn't want you to see. It identifies common mistakes made by most 401(K) and IRA participants and offers better investment ideas.

Target-date mutual funds are popular 401k choices, but these funds are great for Wall Street and just awful for investors. The book points out why index funds are better choices every time, relying heavily on advice given by John Bogle and Warren Buffett. Index funds have lower management fees (expense ratios) and far less trading costs (which can be two or three times greater than expense ratios).

Most 401k participants are not even aware that money is being taken out of their mutual funds in the form of management fees (expense ratios), loads, 12b(1) fees, and cash drag fees. The only fees required to be disclosed are the expense ratios, and these often represent a very small proportion of the total fees paid by 401k or IRA investors.

High frequency trading is also a totally hidden and insidious skimming off of 401k and IRA investments which are in mutual funds. Investors can avoid most of these hidden costs by investing in index funds which make far fewer trades than equity mutual funds.

Warning - the book will challenge your most basic financial assumptions. It is written by a Harvard Business School graduate with 50 years of business and financial experience. He has written this book because he believes that most 401k and IRA investors who put their money into mutual funds, especially target-date funds, are making a choice which is great for Wall Street but not so great for themselves, and that many are losing thousands of their retirement dollars every year. His goal was to write the best book on 401k or IRA investing, and make it easily readable with precise recommendations of the best investments you should make.

This entertaining and easy-to-understand book made me feel a lot more empowered about investing for retirement. I've always left investing up to our financial planner because I found the myriad of options and jargon incredibly confusing and was scared to make a mistake. As a woman, that bothered me because women too often rely on men for financial decisions and I didn't want to fall into that trap/stereotype.

Reading "Coffee Can Investing" really changed things for me. I now feel like I can make basic sense of the retirement options out there - and I know which ones are probably good for me and which ones are really bad news. I think it's going to help me avoid a lot of mistakes.

Fundamentally, this book shows that most retirement investments are designed to make money not for individual investors, but for Wall Street brokers. This wasn't a huge surprise to me, but it did frankly shock me to learn from the book that individual investors often don't even keep up with inflation. However, because most people continually make contributions to their retirement accounts, the balance usually appears to go up over time, even when they're actually losing money.

It isn't easy to see all this if you are a layperson, but the author (Terry Allen) takes you through various calculations that convincingly demonstrate that it's true. In fact, he shows that some retirement investments are actually so bad that you would do better if you put your money in a coffee can and buried it in your back yard (hence the title).

The book is not all bad news, though - there are some reasonable investments out there and the final chapters are about how to choose them. There is no sales angle or anything - the author simply explains how to make the best of company 401K accounts and also suggests some other investments to explore with a qualified financial planner.

I'm really glad that I bought this book and read it. I am ready to ask a lot more questions and assert myself a lot more when I meet with my financial planner. And, although this book is not intended for women in particular, I'm going to lend my copy to all my women friends.

Sometimes a little long winded, and usually with filler and excerpts from other authors that may or may not been taken out of contexts to match what the author is trying to get across, the Author drives his point home. I went through my 401k, and sure enough, discovered the dastardly truths that terry Allen describes. This book is not the end all be all in investing as it does very little to educate you in what to invest in except to point you in the direction of a "financial architect" that knows more than you and to stay in low-fee low trading index funds(this advice is worth the cost of this book). Some people do not have a Roth 401k option so I am stuck making the best choices possible but my wife does and we plan on rolling her 401k into the Roth. Good book that is easy to read (I read it on my day off and took notes to cross reference) but sometimes is a little pessimistic for better or worse on the outlook of the stock market and America in general. He has to be real careful not to cross into the "American economy is over" fear that some Authors throw out there just to sell books to the koolaid drinkers. All in all, a good book and it gives you real actionable advice, or at the very least, gives you a good direction on where to gain more knowledge. It would get 5 stars if a little more complete, but he does point you to his website (which may or may not be an up-sell) to gain more knowledge.

1,0 su 5 stelle Inaccurate and scattered

'Coffee Can Investing' has its origins an a fabulous article by Robert Kirby. This book has none of the elements. It's inaccurate (misstating a Vanguard expense ratio by 10 times), it's inconsistent (saying stay away from mutual funds but mutual funds mangers are smarter than we are), and it seems to say you can do better than a 401(k) by buying whole life insurance and doing option spreads.

Not worth the read. Go read Kirby's article and Charles Ellis 'Winning the Loser's Game'. These are vastly better notion of a Coffee Can investment.

Terry Allen does a superb job of clearly illustrating some of the less apparent downsides to various types of investments that are often times overlooked by the typical investor. I look forward to implementing these basic principles he encourages. I highly recommend reading this book!
