"Kirjutan sulle esimest korda. Ma ei tea su vanust,tausta ega konditsiooni, aga tunnen, et pean sulle koigepealt selgitama, mida sa oma kate vahel hoiad. Kuigi ma raagin selles raamatus oma elust, ei pea ma seda siiski elulooraamatuks. Eesti raamatupoodide riiulitel on kullaga erinevate inimeste elulugusid, sest pohjamaist ja kinnist eestlast huvitab koige rohkem ikka teiste elus toimuv. Neid raamatuid lugedes saab hea juhul teada, et kellelgi teisel laheb samamoodi kui lugejal, ja paremal juhul laheb tal hulleminigi. Sellisel juhul saabub hinge rahulolukubemeke. Vahemalt minule mojuvad teiste halvad uudised just niimoodi. Motlen, et kurat, mul pole hada kedagi, vaata Clintonit voi Kennedyt. Ahjaa, „Minu Kennedy“. Miks selline pealkiri? Arge saage valesti aru, ma ei samasta ennast Ameerika Uhendriikide presidendiga. Mul ei ole suurushullustust. „Minu Kennedy“ on mingil maaral see vooras kole juhtum, mis paneb motlema, et mul endal on ikka vaga hasti. „Minu Kennedy“ on lahendamata lugu voi moistatus. Mind seob temaga miski ja samas ka mitte midagi."

Legendary money manager Ken Fisher outlines the most common—and costly—mistakes investors make. Small cap stocks are best for all time. Bunk! A trade deficit is bad for markets. Bunk! Stocks can't rise on high unemployment. Bunk! Many investors think they are safest following widely accepted Wall Street wisdom—but much of Wall Street wisdom isn't so wise. In fact, it can be costly bunk. In Debunkery: Learn It, Do It, and Profit From It—Seeing Through Wall Street's Money-Killing Myths, Ken Fisher—named one of the 30 most influential individuals of the last three decades by Investment Advisor magazine—details why so many investors fail to get the long-term results they desire. The short answer is many investors fail to question if what they believe is true—and are therefore blinded by tradition, biases, ideology, or any number of cognitive errors. Your goal as an investor shouldn't be to be error-free—that's impossible. Rather, to be more successful, you should aim to lower your error rate. Debunkery gets you started by debunking 50 common myths—but that's just the beginning. It also gives you the tools you need to continue to do your own debunkery for the rest of your investing career.
