Insure Your Investments Against Losses
In Insure Your Investments Against Losses, "forensic gumshoe" Robert Goldin, who has been featured in Maclean's, National Post, Vancouver Sun, and many other publications and TV shows, lets investors in on a secret their financial advisers are not telling them: that they can insure their investments so that their capital never falls below what they put into the market. Instead of going on that queasy roller coaster ride called investing in the stock market, investors can: safely invest in individual securities, exchange traded funds, and index funds and then use existing investment strategies such as options and strip bonds to insure their individual investments, or their entire investment portfolio, against losses; break out the champagne when their investments make a profit; and, sleep easy when they don't, knowing that at worst they will not lose one cent of their hard-earned cash. Insure Your Investments Against Losses is not just another investment book on asset allocation and retirement planning. It will revolutionize your investment practices. And it will send a strong message to the investment advisors benefiting from these practices themselves but not passing them on to the public.

Retirement Bites
From two personal finance experts, a "hopeful and even fun roadmap" (Ken Dychtwald, author of The Power Years) to plan for your retirement, tailored to the specific financial circumstances of Gen X The oldest members of Gen X are less than a decade from retirement age, but many of the sixty-four million Americans born between 1965 and 1980 are not sufficiently prepared. While it could be easy to label Gen Xers as slackers, there are several underlying economic issues making it harder for this cohort to save for retirement. Company-funded pensions vanished just as Gen X started working, 401(k)s were less widespread for much of their early earning years, and Gen X's earnings have been disrupted by multiple financial crises during their work lifetimes. Retirement Bites is a retirement playbook that specifically targets this overlooked generation. Personal finance experts Kerry Hannon and Janna Herron lay out a blueprint for Gen Xers to take control of their financial future: from understanding investment options, to boosting financial security, to creating a retirement income stream, and more. The goal is to embrace not just saving for retirement but saving for life.

Rich Family Smart Family
Financial intelligence begins with financial literacy. And Robert Kiyosaki reminds us that "our minds are our greatest assets." Financial literacy gives you the tools to build your personal financial statement... which tells you the story about how you are managing your cash flow. The language of money can be confusing and intimidating. But, like it or not, "money"--in all of its shapes and forms--is a part of our daily lives. And the more we understand money, and the language of money, the more power we have over our future. Words are the most powerful tools you can possess. Challenge yourself--and your family--to master the language of money. The lessons in this book are simple ones and, like those in Rich Dad Poor Dad, they have guided me over the years. I learned that the path to wealth wasn't about being obsessed with getting the high-paying job or striving for the next promotion and pay raise. I learned that my financial destiny was not dependent upon my boss, a pay raise, the company, the economy, or luck. I learned that I could be in control.

The Marriage-Friendly Prenup
GETTING MARRIED?Thinking About Prenuptial Agreements?For anyone who is getting married, embarking on a prenuptial agreement can often be a distressing and disappointing journey. Sometimes the negotiations irreparably damage the impending marriage and may even cause a couple to break up. People considering prenuptial agreements almost invariably face what seems to be an insurmountable task filled with angst. But it doesn't have to be this way.The Marriage-Friendly Prenup: How to Create a Thoughtful and Caring Prenuptial Agreement contains ideas and methods for future spouses to find common ground and create positive outcomes for each other when formulating a prenup. It provides guidance on how to mitigate the harm often caused by the usual process of getting a prenup. The Marriage-Friendly Prenup provides concepts and tools that will help foster creative and collaborative decision-making and mutual problem-solving. This results in better prenups, ones that that can actually increase marital harmony and goodwill.With a clarity and grace that comes from years of experience helping couples through the pain of divorce, and now, more joyfully, helping couples create healthy prenuptial agreements, Laurie Israel shares her insightful, optimistic, and grounded wisdom on building a strong, healthy marriage, with, or without, a prenup.The Marriage-Friendly Prenup is a must-read for couples at all stages of their relationship. It is also a vital resource for lawyers, financial advisers, couples' therapists, clergy, and friends and family of people who are embarking on prenuptial agreements.The Marriage-Friendly Prenup is not only legally, but financially and emotionally sophisticated, and covers all the most important topics - it is a genuine classic. The book provides solid advice for building a happy life with a new spouse, digs us out of the era of marriage-weakening prenups, and spiritedly charts a new way forward.Laurie Israel's analysis adds humanity and generosity of spirit to the inherently emotionally complex and traditionally purely money-focused process and helps spouses to be the best people they can be. Her approach is based on a simple observation that the dynamics around money are inseparable from other interpersonal dynamics. This means that a poorly negotiated prenup can easily cause so much damage that it becomes a tearful roadmap for divorce. In this accessible, succinct, and surprisingly happy book, the author asks the reader to respect the existing laws on marriage and divorce by understanding them, and not to treat them as "the enemy" but as a guiding template to creating a healthy prenuptial agreement. Laurie Israel capably provides couples with a practical framework for creating agreements that strengthen, rather than weaken, their relationships.

Essays on German and Us Contemporary Investor Returns
This book investigates investor returns focusing on the impact of ESG ratings on stock performance in the US, and on the success probability of public takeovers in Germany. The first paper explores whether US stocks with high ESG ratings yield higher returns than stocks with low ESG ratings. To create a more homogeneous and comparable analysis framework, data is split by eleven GICS industry sectors. The results show that low ESG stocks outperform high ESG stocks in terms of alpha, while high ESG stocks demonstrate both lower volatility and lower tail risk. The second paper extends the first analysis by comparing ESG and NoESG US stock portfolios across eleven GICS sectors. Consistent with the first study, NoESG stocks yield higher alphas, while ESG stocks show lower volatility and lower tail risk. The third paper shifts the focus to the German takeover market and analyzes the effect of offer premiums on success probability in public takeover offers. By calculating abnormal returns from takeover announcements, the author constructs a "premium return line" (PRL), showing that merger arbitrage provides a profitable spread between abnormal returns and premiums to investors.

Water
'... Chellaney shows how today's economic growth could lead to tomorrow's water wars". This is a vital book for anybody interested in diplomacy and conflict in the twenty-first century' - Stanley A. Weiss, founding chairman, Business Executives for National Security, Washington DC The battles of yesterday were fought over land; those of today are over energy. But the battles of tomorrow may be over water. Nowhere is that danger greater than in water-distressed Asia. Water stress is set to become Asia's defining crisis of the twenty-first century, creating obstacles to continued rapid economic growth, stoking interstate tensions over shared resources, exacerbating long-time territorial disputes, and imposing further hardships on the poor. Asia is home to many of the world's great rivers and lakes, but its huge population and exploding economic and agricultural demand for water make it the most water-scarce continent on a per capita basis. Many of Asia's water sources cross national boundaries, and as less and less water is available, international tensions will rise. The potential for conflict is further underscored by China's unrivalled global status as the source of transboundary river flows to the largest number of countries, as it declines to enter into water-sharing or cooperative treaties with these states, even as it taps the resources of international rivers. Water: Asia's New Battleground is a pioneering study of Asia's murky water politics and the relationships between freshwater, peace, and security. Brahma Chellaney paints a larger picture of water across Asia, highlights the security implications of resource-linked territorial disputes, and proposes real strategies to avoid conflict and more equitably share Asia's water resources.

The Five-Year Stellar Stock Index and The Yield On Cost Gold Mine
This is not a story book. This book is an instructional manual based on financial research. Sorry, but it's all about the numbers. To appreciate the powerful investment approach that the FYSSI supports, you will have to understand the numbers. Just simple adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing, decimal points and percentages. This is not a get rich quick scheme. If you can grasp the measure and the magnitude of how your investments (big or small) can grow, and how money can make money, you will perhaps feel much better about your monetary future. The intent is to provide a list of stocks that illustrate excellent investment choices. The Five-Year Stellar Stock Index (FYSSI - pronounced "Fizzy") can help you achieve a far better return than the average annual return you can get with an S&P 500 index fund.
