"Dollar cost averaging is making a comeback, and Mike Edleson's value averaging approach is dollar cost averaging on steroids. A must-read for serious investors willing to adhere to the principles found in these pages."
--William G. Christie, Frances Hampton Currey Professor of Finance and Professor of Law, Owen Graduate School of Management, Vanderbilt University
"Dr. Edleson's book is truly a classic that needs to be perpetuated. I have spent a significant chunk of my career trying to debunk value averaging, but with no success. I'm a believer!"
--Paul S. Marshall, PhD, Professor of Finance, Widener University
From the First Edition
"Today's best way to invest."
--Money magazine
"Value averaging takes dollar cost averaging one step further. Besides buying low, you sell shares when the markets soar."
--The New York Times
Michael Edleson first introduced his concept of value averaging to the world in an article written in 1988. To satisfy investor interest, he wrote a book entitled Value Averaging, which further detailed this method. Following the publication of the last edition of this highly sought-after book in 1993, it has been nearly impossible to find--until now. With the reintroduction of Value Averaging, you now have access to Edleson's original work on a strategy that can help you accumulate wealth, increase your investment returns, and achieve your financial goals.
