Michael Edesess 
Big Investment Lie [PDF ebook] 
What Your Financial Advisor Doesn’t Want You to Know

No professional investing advice is good advice. This hard-hitting book proves it with indisputable facts drawn from scientific research and the author’s own thirty-five years of experience in the investment industry. Michael Edesess exposes ‘;The Big Investment Lie’: that an investor will gain by hiring professional advisors to beat the market. He proves that no professional investment advisor or manager has ever consistently and predictably beat market averages, not even Warren Buffett. While The Big Investment Lie allows an entire industry to prosper lavishly, investors invariably lose when they hire professional help.Once you know the truth, you’ll want to adopt Edesess’s Ten New Commandments for Smart Investing, simple rules you can follow to invest, get a profitable return, and avoid squandering any more of your hard-earned dollars on bogus expertise.
