Go back in time for a minute, when the Motley Fool''s last big investment book was first published in January 1999. The NASDAQ was hovering at around 2300, stocks like Cisco and Microsoft were leading the markets up, and the Motley Fool had four books on Amazon''s bestseller lists, including Rule Breakers, Rule Makers, which for that month was listed at No. 3. Since then, the stock market has boomed and crashed, the economy has sunk in and out of recession, and millions of investors (including the Fools) have watched their stock portfolios shrink. In What to Do with Your Money Now, the Gardner brothers draw lessons from the mistakes that lead to the bust and offer a plethora of advice aimed at guiding investors in this more sober economic environment. Much of what they recommend echoes the practical advice offered in their earlier books (e.g., create a financial plan, get out of debt), while other prescriptions offer a truer reflection of the times (e.g., consider CDs, invest in high-dividend stocks as well as bond and index funds). While the events of the last few years have humbled the Fools somewhat, they''ve lost none of their trademark humor, and fans and newcomers alike should find lots to latch onto in this book. --Harry C.

The year 2001 was a rough one by many measures. David and Tom Gardner (founders of the financial Web site Fool.com) address the economic difficulties it brought and what to do about them in The Motley Fool''s What to Do with Your Money Now: Thriving in the New Economic Reality. They explore the factors leading up to the economic crunch, emphasizing learning from mistakes, and give specific pointers for what to do now, covering dealing with debt, making a will, refinancing and more. Younger readers unsure about how to handle their money in a recession will surely gain from the Gardners'' advice.

From Library Journal
The well-known cofounders of the Motley Fool (The Motley Fool Investment Guide) update their successful line of financial investment books with this timely title that focuses on how best to survive current economic uncertainty, secure personal finances, and fortify portfolios. Continuing their tradition of offering sound advice in a witty, instructive style, the authors explain the roots of the March 2001 downturn and what to do in the midst of the current nasty bear market and provide suggestions on how to invest assertively in the future. Their blunt, often contrary information is well organized for easy note-taking and covers their suggested steps to creating an ideal financial state, including getting out of debt, setting aside three to six months'' of cash, making a will, and obtaining life, disability, and liability insurance. Throughout this relevant approach to financial management in today''s down market, the crisp, upbeat narration by David Gardner keeps listeners captivated. Highly recommended for all university and public libraries.

From AudioFile
The Motley Fools present an all-season guide to investing and personal finance. Although the program reflects the bear market that has afflicted investors for more than two years, its advice is both timely and timeless. Reader and co-Fool David Gardner brings the Fools'' wry and self-effacing tone to audio in a manner that makes its points with humor, rather than preachiness. Gardner departs from the Fools'' past devotion to growth and only growth to review more traditional forms of investment analysis, which are easy for the listener to understand. The second half of the program consists of a step-by-step guide to assessing one''s own personal finances. This sometimes painful. but always helpful process is presented in the Fools'' comforting style.
