Why read it?
1 author picked Wiped Out. How I Lost a Fortune in the Stock Market While the Averages Were Making New Highs as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is one of my favorite books because rather than observing the follies of others, this author details his own. Reading it is like watching a tragedy when you already know the well-meaning protagonist is going to die.
The author chose to remain anonymous for obvious reasons: He thought he was a rare fool. But getting wiped out happens all the time, to many people. If you want to experience vicariously a dangerous thrill ride that you may or may not already have taken, this is your ticket. The book is out of print and hard to find.
From Robert's list on The best books that will open your eyes about the nature of financial markets.
