Investing Blog Roundup: Investing Made Simple, 2018 Edition

Administrative note: There will be no articles next week, to give me more time to work on updating my various books to reflect the recent tax changes. (Publishing every other week may turn out to be the ongoing schedule for a few months.)

On a related point, the 2018 edition of Investing Made Simple is now available (print version here, Kindle version here). For anybody who hasn’t read the book, it’s exactly what it sounds like: an easy-to-understand, concise introduction to the topic of investing.

As far as the other books, the 2018 edition of Social Security Made Simple is coming along, and I’m in the very early stages of updating Can I Retire and Taxes Made Simple. I have not yet begun work on the two largest projects (i.e., updating the two books about small business taxes).
