Get Clark Smart
By Clark Howard and Mark Meltzer (Longstreet Press, 2000).
This book
by syndicated radio host Clark Howard and journalist Mark Meltzer abounds with common
sense advice for consumers. It covers topics as diverse as investing, travel tips, buying
cars and dealing with repairs, choosing credit cards, real estate purchases and rentals,
and consumer scams. On the topic of investing, Howard and Meltzer advocate making regular,
periodic purchases of no-load mutual funds, particularly index funds. Each section of this
invaluable book concludes with bullet point summaries and a list of useful websites and
contacts. By necessity, the book is an overview, not an in-depth treatment, but it is
nonetheless well-written, well-researched and well-worth your hard earned dollar. (Brian N. Smiley)
