In this essential handbook - a blend of Rich Dad, Poor Dad and The Happiness Project - the cohost of the wildly popular InvestED podcast shares her yearlong journey learning to invest, as taught to her by her father, investor and best-selling author Phil Town.
Growing up, the words finance, savings, and portfolio made Danielle Town's eyes glaze over, and the thought of stocks and financial statements shut down her brain. The daughter of a successful investor and best-selling financial author of Rule #1, Phil Town, she spent most of her adult life avoiding investing - until she realized that her time-consuming career as a lawyer was making her feel anything but in control of her life or her money. Determined to regain her freedom, vote for her values with her money, and deal with her fear of the unpredictable stock market, she turned to her father, Phil, to help her take charge of her life and her future through Warren Buffett-style value investing. Over the course of a year, Danielle went from avoiding everything to do with the financial industrial complex to knowing exactly how and when to invest in wonderful companies.
In Invested, Danielle shows you how to do the same: how to take command of your own life and finances by choosing companies with missions that match your values, using the same gold-standard strategies that have catapulted Warren Buffet and Charlie Munger to the top of the Forbes 400. Avoiding complex math and obsolete financial models, she turns her father's investing knowledge into 12 easy-to-understand lessons.
In each chapter Danielle examines the investment strategies she mastered as her increasing know-how deepened the trust between her and her father. Throughout, she streamlines the process of making wise financial decisions and shows you just how easy - and profitable - investing can be.

Warren Buffett Snowball Quotes
History[edit]
Before this book was written, Warren Buffett rejected numerous approaches by biographers, journalists, and publishers to cooperate on an account of his life.[2] After spending six years as the only Wall Streetanalyst Buffett would speak to, Alice Schroeder was approached by Buffett to write his biography. In 2003, she left her job at Morgan Stanley and traveled to Omaha to work on the book full-time. Schroeder spent over 2,000 hours reading Buffett's personal files while interviewing Buffett, his wife, children, sisters, friends, and business associates.[3] Before Schroeder began writing, Buffett told her he would not ask for any revisions once the book was finished and, where accounts of his life differed, to always use the 'less flattering version.' [2]
Reception[edit]
The Snowball was Amazon.com's best business and investing book of the year 2008.[4]Time Magazine, People Magazine, and critic Janet Maslin of The New York Times named it one of ten best books of the year.[5]The Washington Post, the Financial Times, BusinessWeek, and Publishers Weekly also each named The Snowball the best book of 2008.[5] The book was shortlisted for the 2008 Financial Times and Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year Award,[6] as well as the 2009 Gerald Loeb Award for distinguished business journalism.[7] A reviewer in The Economist noted that for those 'hoping for detailed analyses of his investment record' the place to start is 'Mr. Buffett’s collected essays and annual reports.'[8] As a look at Buffett, the Washington Post stated The Snowball was 'the most detailed glimpse inside Warren Buffett and his world that we likely will ever get...a bible for capitalists”[9] and the Los Angeles Times wrote it was 'the most authoritative portrait of one of the most important American investors of our time.'
