Congratulations goes out to Oblivious Investor who won the The New Coffeehouse Investor: Book Review and Contest. Hopefully Oblivious Investor should be receiving it later this week.

Check out the The New Coffeehouse Investor.

It’s a good book and I gave a friend my copy to borrow and check it out.

If you’re just getting started with investing or need a guide to point you in the right direction, this a solid book. You’re going to find some useful information like:

• Finding an asset allocation for your retirement portfolio
• Indexing the Stock Market
• Figuring out how much to set aside for saving

If you read the book or want to know more, check out the Coffeehouse Investor site. It has some great information.
