Fred Schwed Jr. was a professional trader who got out of the market after losing a bundle in the 1929 stock market crash. Years later, he published a bestselling children's book entitled Wacky, the Small Boy, and then went on to write Where Are the Customers' Yachts?

"Once I picked it up I did not put it down until I finished. . . . What Schwed has done is capture fully-in deceptively clean language-the lunacy at the heart of the investment business."
-- From the Foreword by Michael Lewis, Bestselling author of Liar's Poker
". . . one of the funniest books ever written about Wall Street."
-- Jane Bryant Quinn, The Washington Post
"How great to have a reissue of a hilarious classic that proves the more things change the more they stay the same. Only the names have been changed to protect the innocent."
-- Michael Bloomberg
"It's amazing how well Schwed's book is holding up after fifty-five years. About the only thing that's changed on Wall Street is that computers have replaced pencils and graph paper. Otherwise, the basics are the same. The investor's need to believe somebody is matched by the financial advisor's need to make a nice living. If one of them has to be disappointed, it's bound to be the former."
-- John Rothchild, Author, A Fool and His Money , Financial Columnist, Time magazine
Humorous and entertaining, this book exposes the folly and hypocrisy of Wall Street. The title refers to a story about a visitor to New York who admired the yachts of the bankers and brokers. Naively, he asked where all the customers' yachts were? Of course, none of the customers could afford yachts, even though they dutifully followed the advice of their bankers and brokers. Full of wise contrarian advice and offering a true look at the world of investing, in which brokers get rich while their customers go broke, this book continues to open the eyes of investors to the reality of Wall Street.
作者在书中提到的多个岗位上的人,都喜欢对于未来进行预测,对于大局进行把控,而因此带来了很多的笑话。 华尔街这么多的人,为何都这样做呢?因为他们被广大投资者认定是权威,他们既要满足自己的工作角色,又要符合大众对于该工作角色的定义,难道他们在回答投资人询问市场走...
评分金融股市什么的不太懂,翻译的确实也不是很好,读起来有些晦涩。需要总结的几点: 1. 经纪人都是在通过预测让客户投机,只是预测的方法不同。客户需要自己承担风险。 2. 较为安全的投资方法是把钱投给不太需要它们的人,以量取胜。但绝大多数人无法做到,因此,需要承担较大的...
评分小弗雷德·施韦德(Fred Schwed,Jr)20世纪20年代初期,已经读到大学四年级的小弗雷德因为晚上6点在宿舍里容留女生而被普林斯顿大学劝退,之后他就在华尔街谋生。作为一名职业交易员,他在1929年的崩盘中破了产。 读书之前先看到作者的生平,想着在1929年崩盘中破产的人将是如...
评分 评分看一只花蛤的《在苍茫中传灯》里提起,以前一直听说但是无暇看的一本书。 写评论之前看了一眼飘香的书评,很巧,观点一致。 客户的游艇被经纪人给吃了,华尔街那帮人,就是靠着撺掇着客户不断交易而富甲一方的。这些观点看起来很有道理,但是原因挖的还不够深入。 没有经纪人的...
The kid who was addressed obediently leaned forward to write, but as he did so he puckered his lips a little. Very low — but audibly — he gave that distinctive, rubbery sound of contempt which is vulgarly known as "the bird." Immediately everyone felt less confident. 有谁看懂了?什么意思?

评分An insightful and witty satire of professional investing and Wall Street itself, just as was stated in the recommendation, a book "that will provoke you, teach you, and crack you up all at once". The argument that Wall Street is something of a playground for self-righteous foolish egos trying to predict the unpredictable may apply to any market.
