Not good., April 2 2003
This review is from: The Guide for Penny Stock Investing (Paperback)
This book doesn't have the hype that surrounds it. The author gives sound examples of ways to go about making a profit. But to those who think this book will help them return big % gains within the month with little work, think again. This author strongly suggests calling the penny stock company, doing hours and hours of research, get to know the investor relations desk and visit the company. While these ideas are good for those interested in long time investments, this just doesnt work for penny stock companies, who's stock is so volatile.
I would reccomend putting this book and "Penny Stock's: The Next American Gold Rush," togeather. The other book is much better in the first place, but you should always have as much knowledge on penny stocks as possible.
Along with there not being an really really good profitable advice, the author must have wrote this on his laptop on long night flight, which went straight to the printing press. The spelling is absolutly TERRIBLE. You can hardly understand what he says. Plus there is no index.
Overall, not bad information, but not what the majority would want for fast profit.

Will you discover the next Microsoft?, April 14 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Guide for Penny Stock Investing (Paperback)
While we would all love to discover the next Microsoft, what the Guide does, is put forward the research tools and guidelines that can enable an investor to focus in on the thousands of small companies and sift through the most promising ones so that the investor can make the best possible choice.
Otherwise investing in penny stocks is like playing darts. You might get lucky once or twice, but the house will win in the long run.
If on the other hand, as an investor you do have a set of guidelines to use you have a much better chance of making an educated guess that can help you determine which penny stock companies have the best chance of growing into large established companies.
Since the Guide focuses on company based and financial research it is ideal for investors who are looking to be able to fully evaluate the penny stocks they are considering investing in.

A difficult Read, April 7 2004
This review is from: The Guide for Penny Stock Investing (Paperback)
This book is very hard to read. There are so many gramatical and spelling errors that you have to read sentences over and over again to figure out what the author is trying to say. I probably won`t finish it out of frustration. I wish I could get my money back. Here`s another book that`s on its way to EBAY!!
