Bernstein, cofounder, Efficient Frontier Advisors, LLC author of The Intelligent Asset Allocator and The Four Pillars of Investing"More than thirty years ago John Bogle started a war in the mutual fund industry. His weapon was low fees, and his shield was common sense. In this book, three ardent followers sagely outline Bogle's approach that has benefited millions and will benefit millions more." -Richard Ferri, CFA, President, Portfolio Solutions LLC author of The ETF Book: All You Need to Know About Exchange-Traded Funds (Wiley/December 2007)"Those investors who have the courage, discipline, and wisdom to follow the sound financial and investment strategies of The Bogleheads' Guide to Investing are virtually certain to achieve results superior to not only the vast majority of individual investors, but the vast majority of professionals as well.
