Customer Reviews:

Good as a reference guide.......2000-10-01

Great reference once you are in Tuscany, but don't try to plan your trip with it.

comprehensive coverage of tourist sites.......2000-01-27

Excellent coverage of monuments, museums, history, etc. It DOES NOT contain any info on lodging, restaurants, shopping, etc. But for planning your outings and getting around it is very thorough. A 100 page section on Florence, and a concise write-up on even the smallest towns, usually with it's own little map. Plenty of small photos and even floor-plans of large museums. Street map of Florence is good, but does not label all streets, and not a great street index, so a detailed map of your destination is advised, in addition

Book Description

Hug the bear and take the bull by the horns. Come out ahead in any market.

Investors are more worried than ever about where to invest their money. Investment expert Ken Stern's new book To Hell and Back offers smart strategies for investing in any type of market. Stern experienced the roller coaster of Wall Street firsthand, at first getting caught up in the frenzy surrounding tech stocks before returning to the fundamental strategies. He still believes the stock market holds unlimited opportunity. His new book provides investors with advice to get ahead, and stay ahead.

Customer Reviews:

buying book after seeing PBS show.......2005-08-09

I just saw Ken Stern's Life Plan for Wealth on PBS and decided to get his book for more detailed information than was provided on the PBS program (my 4 star rating is for info I got from watching the PBS program) I prefer to do my own homework and found that D.Walkush's comments below are just wrong. Ken Stern is listed as one of Bloomberg's Top Wealth Managers for 2005. His company has several workshops offered this month, and his newsletters are current. Doesn't seem outdated to me...

Better than an MBA for less (...).......2001-12-11

The money and time you put in studying this book voraciously will be rewarded tenfold at least! As a seasoned market veteran, I was first attracted to the book because the author and I share a similar surname, but I expected the typical feel-good hyped up hardcover pep talk with no pragmatic value whatsoever. I couldn't have been more wrong! This book will give you all the information you need to plan a lifetime investment strategy that will get returns that would make any market guru green with envy. From a simplified explanation of the business cycle to new stock selection models, to explanations of market math that a first grader could understand, to exact steps you need to take to develop the mental toughness needed to survive and thrive in the investment arena, I only wish this book had been available when I had started out. It took me many years of study and painful mistakes to figure out half of the info inside, and the rest was totally innovative. Mr. Stern appears to be one of the precious few advisors who tell it like it is without hyperbole or fancy language, so that real people can make real money and have real security and peace of mind. My highest reccomendation!

WHAT'S GOING ON HERE? AND HE HAS A MBA ?!!!.......2006-06-03

My goodness, where do I begin...TYPOS, GRAMMATICAL ERRORS AND A TON OF NONSENSE about life on "the Street". I spent 5 years on Wall Street in various areas of the industry at 2 of the top 5 firms and another one of the top 10 firms. I bought the book because I thought it might give me a basic overview of other areas I might be able to move into and plan a stategy to do. Geez, I was awestruck at the amount of poor writing and overinflated depictions of life in I-Banking. Spare me! I was shocked that the authors made it out of high school much less college and prestigious business program. (I should apply to the school and tell them you can't tell me "no" because you said "yes" to this guy, and look how he writes and openly acknowledges he's an alumni member.) Spend your money elsewhere. Find folks in the business. You will fare much better. This should get negative stars for a poor attempt at a marketing/advertising book attempting to be substantive.

LOTS of grammatical errors, sparse useful info.......2006-02-25

Let me just say that there are waaay better books out there on the subject, even if you just want to get a brief rundown. And you needn't even be a grammar nut like myself to feel antsy about when the next spelling or syntax error is going to show up, because there's an average of one per page. Honestly, I couldn't get through half the book, but I'm pretty sure there was nothing in the latter pages to make up for it.

A simple book that gives you basic understanding of investment banking.......2005-08-30

This is a book written in very simple language, explaining the basics of investment banking. I liked the book because it is not very big, and everything is explained in very simple terms. Probably not the best choice for those who are looking to gain in-depth knowledge. Found a few typos here and there.

Just a big advertisement really..........2004-03-20

This is the second Vault guide that I have read, and the second disappointment that I have had with this series. I really isn't a career guide at all, just a very short back ground on what IB is. You can find a description of IB on the internet for free. The only redeeming value is the "day in a life of", but even then, there are only a dozen pages or so. In all, you can find most of what is in the book for free on the internet. I won't be buying any more vault products, as they have little information, and more pages of ads for other vault products than pages of usefull information.

And much more!

Excerpts from The Vault Reports Guide to Finance Interviews:

You say accretive, I say dilutive

A merger can be either accretive or dilutive. A merger is accretive when a firm with a higher price to earnings ratio (we'll call the company "Company 1," and label it's P/E ratio "P/E1") acquires a firm of a lower P/E ratio (which we will label P/E2). Why do we call the merger accretive?

The company's new earnings will be E1 + E2. Let's call this Enew. Usually, the new company will maintain the P/E ratio of the acquiring firm. Post-acquisition, it will be valued as P/E1 x earnings.

However, the amount that Company 1 had to pay was only PE2 x E2. Hence it paid a lower price when compared to the additional valuation it received from the market due to the increased earnings. (Mathematically, this can be represented by if P/E1 > P/E 2, then P/E 1(E1 + E2)> P/E1(E1) + P/E2(E2)) Hence the word accretive. A simple way to memorize this is: "Accrete is to add, add what?..value." So if I pay less and receive more value, it is accretive.

The reverse of this situation is a dilutive merger, and occurs when a company with a lower P/E ratio buys a firm with a higher P/E ratio. Here we use the term "buys" because the buying firm determines the final valuation multiple.

We'll look at a hypothetical example of a dilutive merger to make this clearer. Say Big Gun, a sporting goods store wants to buy a fast-growing chain called Ubershoe. Let's also say that Big Gun is valued at $500 million with earnings of $50 million, while Ubershoe is valued at $200 million with earnings of $10 million. Big Gun trades at a P/E ratio of 10/1; the combined company will also trade at this ratio. After the merger, the company will have earnings of $60 million, and will be valued at $600 million. This is a dilutive merger because previous to the deal, the combined valuation of the companies was $700 million.

Sample questions

1. Company A is considering acquiring Company B. Company A's P/E ratio is 55 times earnings, whereas Company B's P/E ratio is 30 times earnings. After Company A acquires Company B, will Company A's earnings per share rise, fall, or stay the same?

Company A's earnings-per-share will rise, because of the following rule: when a higher P/E company buys a lower P/E company, the acquirer's earnings-per-share will rise. The deal is said to be "accretive," as opposed to "dilutive," to the acquirer's earnings.

2. Describe a recent M&A transaction that you've read about.

If you are preparing for an I-banking interview, this is a must prepare question. Read the papers and have at least one transaction thoroughly prepared. You should be able to cover various aspects of the transactions. You should know what the structure of the transaction was. Who was buying whom, or was it a merger of equals? Was it an all-stock ransaction or was there cash involved?

For example, you could talk about America Online's acquisition of Netscape. In that transaction, a stock swap valued at $4.2 billion, AOL acquired Netscape. You should talk about how the acquisition was structured from a financial point of view, and the effect the acquisition is likely to have on AOL's earnings (both long-term and short-term).

3. What were the reasons behind that transaction? Does this transaction make sense?

Perhaps more important than understanding the nuts and bolts mechanics of transactions is understanding the factors that drive M&A activity. The America Online/Netscape deal is especially interesting in this regard because it involves heavy strategic planning in a fast-moving industry (as opposed to, say, the merger between Mobil and Exxon, through which the two giants simply hope to consolidate, save, and boost profits).

America Online is a content-driven company with more than 14 million subscribers. Netscape has kick-ass software, in the form of a popular browser and tools for businesses to pursue e-commerce. However, Netscape has seen its browser market share fall as Microsoft, with its immense distribution strength (and questionable pairing of browser with operating system) has elbowed its way into the category. And despite America Online's undisputed lead in market share as an Internet service provider, it had not moved aggressively into what many consider to be the golden road of the Internet - e-commerce.

This deal partners AOL and Netscape with Sun Microsystems, which is a hardware company that boasts strong hardware products and sales and support staff. The partners envision a world in which companies use the e-commerce tools developed by Netscape, hawk their wares on America Online (lured by the audience AOL can deliver), and are supported in their hardware and service needs by Sun. Synergy for the 21st century.

Book Description

Noted nature crafter Laura Martin has created a fantasy for fairy-lovers. Its conceit involves a botanist, Christine Newkirk, who has discovered five tiny houses on a magical island, all made from natural materials on a perfect fairy scale—the houses are no more than 18 inches high, beds are 2 x 3 inches, shoes are 1 inch long. She documents her finds in a field diary she is keeping for her granddaughter.

The woodland cottage is filled with bent twig furniture. The Japanese house displays bamboo slippers outside the door, and the beach house has a minute bath tiled with seashells. Each spread is filled with photos and drawings of these tiny objects, all identified with their botanical names.

To leaf through these pages is to enter another world and dwell in it—the world of fantasy that has fascinated people through the ages.

Book Description

In this fascinating self-portrait, George Morrison, who calls himself "an artist who happens to be an Indian," tells a personal story of a life of changing horizons and artistic achievement. Growing up in a large family ("we didn't know we were poor"), he bartered pictures with town kids and carved trinkets to sell to tourists. Encouraged by his teachers, he attended art school in Minneapolis, then moved to New York City. At the Art Students League, George was swept up in Abstract Expressionism, showed his work in Greenwich Village lofts, and spent summers working and painting in Provincetown, Massachusetts. He later taught at the Rhode Island School of Design. But in 1970, his direction turned toward home, and George began to search out his Ojibway heritage. Turning the Feather Around is a work of intimate personal disclosure that captures the pulse of the speaking voice and the vision of the artist's eye.

Book Description

Customer Reviews:

A Pilgrim's Guide.......2003-09-09

One of my own meaningful pleasures in life is to visit those places that represent some personal or historical improtance in my life. While many such places include train tracks or a large rock in the woods or a particular church in Slovakia, meaningless to others, many others include the public squares of much of modern history. Charles Bridge in Prague is a favorite, as is Westminster Abbey in London. Places of importance for so many saints and sinners and in between. The value of this little book about Lewis is, to people like myself, obvious. Our connection through the page needs to be extended to the place. Lewis, whose writings have inspired our lives with magic and devotion, has also taught many of us the value of the particular. Through the particular we come to the universal. "There are no trees, only this Elm." Put another way, he teaches us the value of place and physicality.

For those American readers who have been to England it is clear that the island is the landscape of dragons and queens. Each page of this book is filled with those little details that tease us a little more and draw us closer. Filled with photos and maps, it contains VERY detailed descriptions of Lewis' old haunts, along with clear maps and suggestions for daytrips or overnighters. Even if you are not planning on going overseas, this book is a really unique addition to your Lewis collection.

You will also enjoy "Jack" by George Sayer if you are interested in Lewis' life. Two fantastic photo collections with descriptive text are "Through Joy and Beyond" by Hooper and "C. S. Lewis: Images of His World" by Kilby. Enjoy!
