The Little Book of Common Sense Investing
John C. Bogle · 2007
Bogle, founder of Vanguard and inventor of the index fund, makes the simplest and most powerful argument in investing: you cannot consistently beat the market, fees compound devastatingly, and a low-cost index fund will outperform most professionals over time. This is the book that launched a trillion-dollar shift in how ordinary people invest. Elegant, ruthless, correct.
The case against
Bogle had one idea, a great one, and it fits on an index card: buy the index fund, mind the fees. The book restates it for two hundred pages, each chapter closing with a 'Don't Take My Word for It' parade of authorities endorsing what you have already conceded. You needed an essay; he sold you a sermon.
