Eddie's Investment Tips

Unless you've the time and passion to become a skilled investor, what I call a "super investor" you'll probably greet the analysis of stock market instruments with all the joy of a developing a tooth abscess. LOOT! explains lots about investment and uses the Investment Pyramid as a way of contrasting the vast world of investment choices between each other. But LOOT! doesn't identify and introduce you to specific investment products simply because the area is too dynamic for a book.

Remember while I can point the way to common sense investments, much depends on what timeframe you have, your comfort level with risk (and things that go bump in the night), and your financial strength. So take your time, pause to read the links and pdf's, and then proceed at your own pace.
