Every trader should have a copy ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The good, the bad & the ugly... *by S***E on 27 March 2019* I've given this book 4 stars because I haven't read many investment books so I don't feel I'm in a position to give 5. Regardless, I found this book really helpful, in that something felt 'off' to me in how everyone is raving about ETF's etc. I think it's termed the 'herd mentality'. Anyway Schneider's book is a bit like an expo of what it's all about & the reality of the negative side of ETF's etc. Personally I prefer to hear about the good, the bad & the ugly so that I can make an informed decision & that's what this book shows you. The result of reading this book is that before I start investing in anything I'm going to do *a lot* more reading about investing. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Too watery to my taste *by B***I on 9 September 2022* I have been working in the financial industry for 10+ years, so maybe I am simply not a target audience. Nevertheless, I do believe that the book could be more concise and substantial.The reading is about 140 pages.Part 1, c. 50 pages - overview of what ETFs and index funds are, in rather simplified language.Part 2, c. 65 pages - criticism of the ETFs and index funds. I could not get rid of a feeling that the author simply had a goal to write X amount of pages in this part while the only real issue I took away is that your investments still can go down as well as up. Oh, and they still charge you some fees even for investing in ETFs.Part 3, c. 25 pages - a piece of advice to a retail investor how to use ETFs when investing. Refreshingly, common sense is the main theme of this part, and in a good way.The book could benefit from a bit of editing (as just one example, on the page 112 the same sentence is repeated twice).I feel that I could learn the same amount of useful information by just searching Internet for 1-2 hours max. Still, maybe for somebody the book can be a good first read on the topic. Just don't expect any depth in it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/210305688-index-funds-and-etfs-what-they-are-and-how-to](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/210305688-index-funds-and-etfs-what-they-are-and-how-to) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
