Review: Fiscal Cliff Investing
Rating: 5 out of 5

In his book Fiscal Cliff Investing John Marsland presents a simple, but solid, way to invest your money.  His main goal was to find a way to avoid the dramatic stock market declines such as the Tech Wreck and the market collapse in 2007-2008, but at the same time to not miss the upswings that follow these types of declines.  He found it, and he gave it to us investors in this book.  What I especially like is that I can tailor his methods to my personal situation and my risk profile.  And, this is the best part: His method generally doesn't require action more than once or twice a year!  You don't have to spend hours figuring out some complicated system.  I am currently looking at my own investments and determining my own parameters based on the information John Marsland presenteded in the book.This book contains solid advice that will minimize an investor's losses in the event of a serious market decline, especially when compared to a buy and hold strategy, or (as happened to many investors) a buy, hold, let it drop forever, and get out at the bottom strategy, then miss the upturn.I strongly recommend this book to anyone who wants to invest but doesn't want to lose almost everything in the next big market decline.
