Easy to read, and understand. Jim Yih makes a compelling case for investing in GICs, and how to get the biggest bang for your bucks.

Jim Yih's new book is sensible, practical and easy to read. Yih offers a nice combination of basic material for novices and shrewd insight for more experienced investors, and I especially appreciate the case studies as well as the historical perspectives on investment performance. I can find little to argue with as he lays out his seven-strategies approach. Nice job, Jim Yih!

"Who ever thought four years ago that we would have mutual fund refugees? I was amazed at the depth there is to conservative investing. The first question one asks is: Where was this book in 2000, when it could have saved us a lot of grief? And secondly: Will we remember its lessons, so we are never again afraid to open our investment statements?"
-- Ray Turchansky, Personal Finance Columnist, Edmonton Journal

James Yih has written a clear and concise guide to making the most of guaranteed investment products. If you are a conservative investor, new to investing, or simply considering fixed income alternatives for your financial portfolio, read this book.

-- Brian Ironside, Vice-President, Independent Advisors, Manulife Financial

The true path to financial freedom lies in steady, prudent, conservative money management. Too often we look to "the big score" when history tells us that the vast majority of individuals who reach financial independence, do so over time. Jim Yih has accurately captured this philosophy in a very simple primer called "Seven Strategies to Guarantee your Investments”. A must read for clients and advisors seeking a long term relationship.
-- David Barber, President, Independent Financial Brokers

Wow, Jim Yih has been able to provide comfort to the average investor and a good dose of real financial planning. The new millennium came in with a big chaotic bang, the financial markets crashing, terrorism and the bursting of a technology bubble that drove sane investors to do insane things. Jim Yih shows us (the investor) a more direct path to investment success with Guaranteed results. Seven Strategies takes away the fear and provides the comfort we need. Jim's provided a step-by-step guide to investing, which explains to all of us the simple way to maintain and grow our wealth. I recommend it as a must read and a great addition to every investors library.
