Press and Industry Reviews

"Ken Lee's new book shows that discipline and consistency are the two pillars of investment success. You don't have to be a genius to surpass the majority of accidental investors who make decisions in a haphazard daze. What you need is access to unbiased evidence that a strategy works over time, and that's what Lee gives you in his interesting new book."- James O'Shaughnessy, Chairman, The O'Shaughnessy Funds

"It's a great book...it addresses a need among individual investors for a common sense strategy for managing their assets. It properly emphasizes the validity of a longer time horizon. And it is written in a very readable style."
- James Weiss, Deputy Chief Investment Officer
