Discover Today’s Newest, Best Paths to Sustainable Wealth
- Master lower-cost, lower-risk ETF investing in tomorrow’s hottest growth areas: healthcare, infrastructure, and green technology
- Profit from demographic change and other powerful global trends
- Learn do-it-yourself strategies and specific ETF recommendations
Yesterday’s phony investments have collapsed. Tomorrow’s winning investments will be real: They will be in emerging industries that save lives, build critical infrastructure, and protect the world for our children. Right now, there are enormous profits to be made in healthcare, infrastructure, and the environment. This book reveals the lowest-cost, lowest-risk way to earn those profits: sector ETFs.
You’ll discover new strategies for choosing the right ETFs in tomorrow’s highest-growth industries...reducing portfolio costs that are destroying your returns...meeting both your short- and long-term investment goals.
Sick of bubbles and financial flim-flam? Want solid, high-growth investments in industries that solve urgent problems? Looking for profits that can be sustained over years and decades? This is the book you’ve been searching for.
Where will the next generation of enormous, sustainable wealth come from? Not from financial manipulation but from the same source from which it has always come: from those who create the infrastructure upon which society can grow, productivity can increase, and life can improve.
Right now, extraordinary opportunities exist in these three areas: healthcare, infrastructure, and environmental products and services. In Three Paths to Profitable Investing, XShares founder and CEO Jeffrey Feldman shows how to use ETFs to cost-effectively invest in these areas at the best possible time to “catch the wave” and reap enormous profits: right now, just before these industries become commercially viable.
Feldman and Andrew Hyman introduce a step-by-step approach to utilizing sector ETFs both as part of a long-term strategy that eliminates single-stock risk and as part of shorter-term hedging strategies. You don’t need an advisor to use these techniques: With a few clicks of the mouse, you can build a portfolio that accesses unprecedented innovation, reigniting your own personal prosperity and that of society at the same time.

Wonderful Insights, By Dr. H (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Three Paths to Profitable Investing: Using ETFs in Healthcare, Infrastructure, and the Environment to Grow Your Assets (Pearson Custom Business Resources) (Hardcover)
As a practicing physician I have always felt I lack an understanding of the business of medicine. I have been trying to find ways to use some of my medical knowledge to help with my investments and help me diversify.I have always been afraid to risk it all on individual companies. The authors' overview and easy to understand explanations have give me the valuable insight in how to test the waters with a relatively safe and potentially profitable model. With their concise explanation of EFT's I have a much better understanding of how to get involved in an area that I is such a major focus of my personal life. I highly recommend this book for novices to those that have much experience in the world of investing.

As someone in the non-profit sector with limited free time to focus on my personal investments, I found this to be a great overview and introduction to using ETFs. This will be a great resource for me moving forward as I take more control of my investments. Three Paths is well-written, consise, easy to understand, and extremely helpful. I highly reccomend checking it out if you are interested in learning about this great investment tool.

doing well by doing good, By Herb L. (NY) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Three Paths to Profitable Investing: Using ETFs in Healthcare, Infrastructure, and the Environment to Grow Your Assets (Pearson Custom Business Resources) (Kindle Edition)
A well-written overview of some of the main supposedly insoluble problems of our age, from climate change, deteriorating infrastructure, wasteful medical expenditures, and dysfunctional financial system, with suggestions for helping to solve them by investing in a very old fashioned way (paying attention to underlying value, rather than smoke and mirrors or temporary advantage), using a relatively new vehicle--exchange traded index funds. The authors make a convincing case that you can make reasonable profits--i.e., do well, by making these socially useful investments--i.e., by doing good. A real eye-opener.
