    This book coupled with Rick Ferri’s Core-4 free website were of enormous value when deciding my asset allocation. The most useful book I’ve read on the subject!

    This book challenged me to put on my thinking cap and pay attention in order to fully grasp the material. If you want to learn how to allocate a portfolio and more importantly why to allocate it and stay the course in the correct way this is a must read. Thank you Rick Ferri!

    All About Asset Allocation shines a light on the importance of asset allocation and how to implement a solid strategy to any portfolio. Richard A. Ferri is a genius and displays multiple figures and charts that proves his research, making it easy to understand his concepts. Before reading the book i was a little spectacle about how little information i could find on Ferri but was hooked by the information presented by the first chapter. I have read a few other books on asset allocation and this is hands down the best. If you are interested in the subject or obtain the desire to improve your portfolio buy the book right now!!

    This book is very informative providing well documented explanations for the recommended approach to investing. I wish I had this information years ago, it would have saved me many years of losses, along with the ridiculously high fees charged by so-called experts. I trusted Fisher Investments and others only to loose, sustaining many years of setbacks while they made very high management fees. After reading this book, the reader will be able to easily manage their savings and investments using low cost funds and ETFs and avoiding the erosive effects of high management fees. One final note, the author needs to have an editor correct the spelling and word errors that are found throughout the book.
