Robert Shiller, author of Irrational Exuberance
" A most provocative book. The real advantages of time
diversification have never been laid out so clearly or with such a
program of action."
Tim HarfordFinancial Times
"Here are the chief investment lessons of the financial crisis for
today's young people: they should be buying more shares and running
up debts to do so. . . . [T]here is nothing intrinsically risky
about regular borrowing to get that fund off to an early start. . .
. Not only does the concept make sense, it has paid off in the
past. . . . Ayres and Nalebuff have looked at historical stock
market data. . . . For every single cohort, the early leverage
strategy beat the conventional wisdom."
Moshe A. Milevsky, Ph.D., Finance Professor, York University, and
author ofAre You a Stock or a Bond?
"This bold book promotes more early equity exposure for the masses,
precisely at a time when many practitioners are re-thinking the
'buy and hold stocks for the long run' mantra. Whether you are
comfortable with this strategy or not, the book is a must read for
anyone who claims to think about their personal finances in a
rigorous and logical manner."
