About the Book

About the Book"There are innumerable books available that purport to help investors do a better job with their portfolios; however, few come close to Investiphobia in delivering on that promise. Here you won't find page after page of mind numbing tables, graphs and unrealistic advice but rather page after page of interesting, realistic and common (and not so common) sense advice. This is not a book for your book shelf; it's a book for you to read and enjoy. Follow its solid advice and your financial future will be well rewarded."Harold R. Evensky, CFP(R), AIF(R)President, Evensky and Katz"The field of investing is cluttered with far too many 'howto' books. Thankfully, Mr. Puckett's book is that uncommon book written for the common person, i.e., anybody who isnot in the investment business."Jim Flinchum, CFP, CIMAPresident, Bay Capita l Advisors"In this engaging book, Mr. Puckett reinforces behavioral finance theory with insight, practical experience, and compassion. This book could become a classic."Ralph Rievesformer editorial director of Dow Jones-Irwin"Investiphobia is, for investors, like having subtitles with a foreign film -an AH HA moment to understand what's going on! Paul has set forth a TO DO plan so investors can sort out emotions, understand industry pitfalls and develop a strategy to align their wealth with their wishes.An individual can step into the Producer & Director role and get the show rolling. No excuses any longer - Ready, Set, Action!"Caroline S. OliverCFA CFP(R)DescriptionWe grow up imagining how happy we will be when we finally have money. But many people discover they have very strong fears relating to their money. Some are more than just concerned. Their fears have reached phobic levels. In a capitalist economy, one would think we would be very comfortable and open about money - and our feelings about our investments. Yet many people are not at all comfortable discussing their investments. They have fears that have negatively impacted their investment decisions. To prevent these fears from affecting their portfolio, they must be open to recognizing what they are, and then effectively address them. When fear is ignored or denied, it can become a phobia that will not only destroy your investment portfolio, it will also affect your life.The book includes a quiz to help you determine if you have Investiphobia. Many of the people suffering from Investiphobia are unaware of their condition which may be caused by one or more of eighteen separate fears. You do not need to learn them all, just the fears you find applicable to you. Some of these fears, like the fear of loss, are very common. Others, like the fear of not keeping up with the Joneses, may be new to you.You will learn to identify the many individual fears that may cause investiphobia with examples of the ways they may manifest in your investment life. And you will find suggestions on the best ways to address each fear with guidance on keeping these fears from affecting you and your portfolio. Finding Your Financial Life Guide is the second half of Investiphobia. It provides a comprehensive, easy-to-understand guide designed to give you the tools you need to find and choose the right advisor for you.
About the Author: PAUL E. PUCKETT, JR. is a speaker and author of Investiphobia: Overcome Your Deepest Investment Fears. It is the first in the Whole Investor Network(R) series of books designed for individual investors who suffer needlessly due to fears regarding their money. With more than twenty years in the industry, and experience in almost all areas of financial services, Paul's unique talents and perspective helps investors and their advisors eliminate fear from their investment decisions. After witnessing so much fear and uncertainty in investors, friends and colleagues, Paul realized these people were all suffering from a condition created by their fears. Investiphobia is: the abnormal, paralyzing, and irrational fear of anything relating to investing, investment professionals, and investment products. It is characterized by the inability to make sound decisions regarding investments and often causes poor investment performance. A gifted speaker, Paul uses humor and an entertaining approach to reach audiences interested in understanding themselves and their money. "Fear is caused when there's a disconnect between who you are and what's you're doing," says Paul. "Each investor makes the ultimate decision. They need to be empowered with tools to find the answers, advice and support to make sound decisions that won't keep them up at night." Committed to the KISS principle - Keep Investing Simple and Straightforward - Paul is dedicated to eliminating the impact of fear on investors' portfolios and, more importantly, on their lives - one investor at a time.
