How to Download Confessions of an Old Stockbrocker Kindle
Dedicated to all baby boomers over 50…Kent Chauvin was born in Toronto and raised in Victoria, but he spent most of his investment career in Vancouver. He trained at the Merrill Lynch “Military School” in New York City and spent 48 years in the investment business—43 of those years with the same firm. He looked after three generations of clients, including some who entrusted him with their investments for over 40 years. This book includes some amusing and enlightening stories about clients, including the time he opened an account for a dog as a favour to a good client, and anecdotes about colleagues and managers, including the manager from hell and the broker who murdered her stepmother.This engaging book distills Kent’s vast experience in the field, highlighting the investment habits of some highly successful (and some spectacularly unsuccessful) clients and providing reassuring and valuable insights into the psychology of investors throughout different generations. Boom and bust, bull and bear... everything comes and goes in cycles.If this book doesn’t make you laugh out loud (and perhaps start to think about money in a different way) then you’re not paying attention...
