Summary: It just makes sense
Comment: There are so many books on investing right now, that it is difficult to know where to turn. "The Winning Portfolio" is a gem that stands out from the rest of the crowd. This book is easy to understand, even for a novice, yet is not beneath those who have already been investing.
He explains how to build a winning portfolio using mutual funds with emphasis on asset allocations. This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. He helps the reader determine how to build a portfolio based on their needs, then offers examples of how to meet financial goals. Yes, it takes a bit of work, but it doesn't require the diligence (and the stomach) of a day-trader to maintain. This system will work for the average person.
After reading this book, I have a solid plan in place and an idea of where I'm headed and why I'm going there. I agree with the previous reviewer... Dr. Paul's column at cbs.marketwatch.com is also required reading.

Summary: The Winning Protfolio - a winning book
Comment: If you have not yet read Paul Farrell's internet column on the CBS Marketwatch page, you are missing out on a lot! This book, and his daily column on SuperStar Funds, are a must for anyone planning their future.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A Great Place to Start
Comment: This book is an ideal starting point for those who are trying to figure out how to start saving. Dr. Farrell is a comforting voice to anyone who might be overwhelmed at the thousands of mutual funds on the market today and the other countless investment options avaialable these days. Dr. Farrell's message is simple - make a plan, then stick to it. Then, and this is where other columnists, writers fall down, he tells you HOW to do it. He outlines what a model portfolio would look like and gives a long list of funds that might be good choices. Dr. Farrell's other message is, it's not hard to invest - most of the gains in your portfolio come from the allocations you pick - not the individual funds. The book is simple, well-written, and interesting. This shouldn't be the last investment book you read, but if you haven't read one yet, it should be the first!

A smart, simple approach to selecting the handful of funds that are right for you. With nearly 10,000 mutual funds to choose from and very little objective advice on which ones are best for different goals, investors need clear guidance to select funds that are right for them. "The Winning Portfolio" presents a simple, practical remedy to the usual haphazard process of picking mutual funds. This is not another laundry list of "the best" mutual funds. Paul Farrell directs investors to the types of funds best suited to them. For example, someone moving into retirement shouldn't choose the same mix of funds as a thirty-something executive. The best portfolio of funds for each of us depends upon risk tolerance, portfolio objectives, and the length of time we want to be in the market. How do we go about finding the strongest handful of holdings to meet our needs? Beginning with the 100 best mutual funds out there, CBS Marketwatch columnist Paul B. Farrell offers a systematic, yet simple, approach to selecting the ten that will diversify and add value to specific portfolios while reducing volatility. He present criteria for narrowing investment choices to those that fir individual requirements. Farrell also includes critical guidance for monitoring portfolios over the years and rebalancing in a bear market. Lists of "hot" funds change every week, but this book gives a sustainable investing strategy, featuring reliable advice on: creating objectives for a mutual fund portfolio; finding the best high-growth, no-load, and tax-advantaged funds; selecting specific funds that meet long-term needs; assembling a diversified fund portfolio that reduces risk, readjusting assets to meet changing needs, plus: analyzing sample mutual fund portfolios to use as models.
