The Bogleheads' Guide to Investing - Hardcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Taylor Larimore (Miami, FL), CCL, has been dubbed by Money magazine as "the Dean of the Vanguard Diehards" and John (Jack) Bogle himself calls Taylor "The King of the Bogleheads." Now 81 and retired, he is a Boglehead to the core. He regularly spends hours per day answering questions for free on the Morningstar Vanguard Diehard Forum and, in doing so, regularly preaches the investment religion of Saint Jack. In his mind, his wealth is a direct result of following the time-tested investment wisdom of Bogle, the founder and retired chairman of the Vanguard Group. Mel Lindauer (Daytona Beach Shores, FL) was dubbed "The Prince of the Bogleheads" by Jack Bogle. He's a Forum Leader of the Vanguard Diehards on Morningtar.com where he's contributed more than 10,000 posts. A former Marine, he started investing in the late '60s and has first-hand experience with both bull and bear markets. Together with Taylor, he initiated and continues to organize the grassroots Diehards' annual meetings. He's been quoted in a number of newspapers and magazines and has appeared on CNN-fn. Michael LeBoeuf (Paradise Valley, AZ), PhD. Companies large and small turn to Dr. Michael LeBoeuf when they want solid, practical ways to live and work smarter. He is an internationally published author, business consultant, and a dynamic professional speaker. He has been interviewed on hundreds of radio and television talk shows including "The CBS Evening News", "Oprah," and "Good Morning America."
