 Brutal November 30, 2008
Save your money. This book touts asset allocation but does not provide any practical advice on how to develop or implement a plan. The book asks many questions but provides absolutely no answers!

This is the latest book in the "Little Books, Big Profits" series and was timed just right. All the books before it teach you how to invest, and this book teaches you how to keep what you've invested.
David Darst is a good writer. He kept my attention and I wasn't bored. I read the entire book one Saturday night.
The true value of this book is in reading the entire series. They all make up a sound investing education. All of the books in the series are good; some better than others, but are all written by financial masters. Take a piece from one and apply it to another and you have a winning formula.
Overall, this book is definitely worth three or four hours on a Saturday night. But, get the other books in the series too. Each present a view that the other doesn't.

Mr. Darst must have had all of his buddies write in with 5-star reviews. I bought this book based on the subject and reviews, but it didn't meet my expectations. The title and description imply he will share HOW to balance your portfolio to weather the market ups and downs. His magic solution...allocate your investment $ to various asset classes which have a low correlation to each other (i.e. don't respond similarly to interest rates and economic conditions). How much to allocate to what classes depends on your goals and situation. DUHH! Rather than following through with real examples of asset allocation strategies which have worked for real people, he leaves you in the dark and tells you to hire a financial advisor.

This book is one step short of basic. Total waste. Unless you are into similes.
