Praise for Rocking Wall Street
‘. . . the only four investment strategies you will ever need. .
. I dare anyone to read this book and not wake up to the realities
of Wall Street, and change their investing habits on the
spot.’
–Steve Trager Watson Retired CEO and CIO of the hedge fund
Watson Investment Partners, LP
‘A true Renaissance man and teacher, Gary Marks adeptly explores
four investment strategies that can achieve strong results and
peace of mind-two concepts usually considered mutually exclusive in
the world of Wall Street investing. Using his vast experience and
folksy storytelling, Gary provides lessons, anecdotes, and
strategies that will help readers find multiple levels of
success.’
–Mitch Levine Founder and CEO, Enable Capital Management
‘Rocking Wall Street brings a musician’s heart and soul to the
investment process, balancing strategic investing with ‘living your
life.’ Marks’s creative approach is sure to strike a major chord
with both new and seasoned investors.’
–Kerry Paul Altman, Ph D Clinical Psychologist
‘Rocking Wall Street tips the scales over to the side of the
investor and away from the hype masters and media ‘experts, ‘ whose
lures and promises all seem to vanish in a bear market.’
–Michael J. Sell Former auditor, CPA, Investment
Consultant
