I cannot think of a better way of reinforcing that key message that long-term investing can prove utterly rewarding. Certainly, mother is getting a copy. Jeff Prestridge - Mail on Sunday There is some very sound advice, I like Lee's common sense approach... It's the book for people who are prepared to build their portfolio steadily, one stock at a time and work on the principle that you're buying for the long term... Lee is rightly proud of what he has achieved but also honest about the fact that he has made mistakes, usually either because he sold a stock too soon or because he simply misjudged. Either way he's adamant that if you make a loss you should learn the lesson and move on. www.thebookbag.co.uk
