The book is an easy read. But if something is easy then anyone can do it. Derek Foster assumes in this book that you already have a general understanding of the stock market. If you do, you may benefit him talking about few stock techniques (not using the word strategy) which he used that have helped him. The issue is he does not get into telling you how he did it. The onus is on you to figure it yourself. I did learn some lessons from the book. But over all I do not feel good about my purchase of - Lazy Investor.
