    Description of You Have More Than You Think

    In the few years since its debut on the internet (www.fool.com) and America Online (keyword FOOL), the Motley Fool's hands-on, commonsense approach to investing has improved the lives of thousands of Americans of all stripes. Their first book, The Motley Fool Investment Guide, taught readers how to beat the market. This book - their 'prequel' - is for those who are still a hop, skip and a jump from even contemplating buying stocks. The Gardners aim to instruct the novice and amuse the sophisticate, making You Have More Than You Think a wonderfully accessible books appropriate for almost everyone.

    Reviews

    'It's one thing for a small child in an ancient village to declare that the emperor has no clothes. It's another for articulate 'Fools', as they like to call themselves, to shout it from the top of the internet and from their bestselling book. It almost makes you wonder how long Wall Street will survive.'
    Chicago Tribune

    'Cool. Actually quite hip. The Gardners set out do something different in the investment world: have some fun while making a wad of money . . . and they seem to have succeeded.'
    Wired

    'The Fool is funny and flip, while containing solid information and advice for individual investors.'
    The Washington Post

    'Humorous and savvy.'
    The Wall Street Journal
