Joseph G. Nicholas’ book is not for the faint of heart or the light of wallet. If your idea of a strong
investment is a 401K
plan and a few blue chip stocks handed down from your dear departed grandmother, this probably isn’t the book for you. However, for those interested in how the very rich get very richer, as well as those charged with the weighty responsibility of protecting institutional and private assets, this book could be worth its weight in gold or stock certificates. Nicholas writes at a level that makes his information just comprehensible to those with minimal
investment knowledge, while still very useful to insiders who know the menu of every deli within a two-mile radius of Wall Street. His in-depth historical analysis explains the current strong interest in hedge funds of funds
investing, and his case studies will teach you the all-important matter of how to select the right fund of fund manager. getAbstract.com strongly recommends this book to anyone who wants or needs to learn more about investing at the most elite levels.
