I know his track record on hot stocks isn’t so hot, but that’s not what I’m asking about. His new book is about savings, 401(k)s, IRAs, 529s for your kids, mutual funds, etc. It is this aspect of investing that he’s not normally associated with, which is why his book looks interesting. I guess what I’m asking is: Will his book have sound advice, or is he just capitalizing on his media fame to sell a ton of books?
Also, I’m not interested in specific mutual funds to buy, or specific investments to make. I’m more interested in a general overview of how 401(k)s, IRAs, 529s, etc all work, their tax benefits and drawbacks, and so on. I’m just wondering if this book might be a good primer on those things.
