Review Quotes

"Mr. Tobias's ideas about saving money -- you can't build a portfolio without savings -- are his real gems. And the reason for that is his approach. He combines humor -- it starts with the dedication, "to my broker -- even if he has, from time to time, made me just that" -- with common sense presented in an uncommon way."--New York Times
