Beginning in 2007, Investing for the Utterly Confused was published offering a true beginners guide to investing. It offered such a well-rounded look at the subject it became just as helpful are source for those with some experience with investments.

 

The second book, also published in 2007, Retirement Planning for the Utterly Confused Paul took the subject on everyone’s minds and continued his financial tutorial exposing many of the truths about retirement planning thatmost of us often ignore. More than that, he offered practical remedies to get to the retirement you wanted.
