Malkiel to explain a lot about investing. It includes very reasonable advice for investing. <br/><br/>The bottom line (especially for beginners)...low-cost indexed mutual funds. The big three low-cost companies are Vanguard, Fidelity, and T Rowe-Price. <br/><br/>I highly recommend the book and the advice.

Of course you did a great job of explaining but I am really very green and sometimes reading these things feels as if I am reading a foreign language.
