Kobo has changed the way authors can self-publish, streamlining the process to be more like the Amazon Kindle store. As a result, Potato’s Short Guide to DIY Investing is now available in the Kobo store<\/a>. From my point of view, it’s better if you buy the book directly from me<\/a> as I get to keep more of the gross, but for you the price is the same whether you buy from Amazon<\/a>, Kobo, or me: choose what’s most convenient for you. <\/p>\n

And speaking of my book, I got some great heart-warming fan mail recently. One of the first people to read my book and switch over to do-it-yourself investing with TD e-series has reported back a year later that things are still on track and that she did her first annual re-balancing all on her own.<\/p>\n

A more recent reader wrote in the very same day she bought a copy: <\/p>\n

I just bought & looked through your book Potato\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Short Guide to DIY Investing after signing up for a TD Waterhouse Discount Brokerage account and being confused by the interface. The walkthrough for buying the e-Series funds helped me out a lot. Thanks! <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’m very happy that people are finding the book useful, and I’m thrilled <\/em>that they took the time to send me such wonderful emails!<\/p>\n

Finally, I’d like to thank Ellen Roseman for mentioning the book (and the associated coaching service) in her recent column on investment coaches<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
