Protect your retirement from the next big crash with a New Twist on the Old Investment Strategy.   For years, advisors have recommended that investors take a "buy and hold" approach to the market, but people over fifty can't afford to rely on this strategy. Buy, Hold, & SELL! uncovers the myth of the "buy and hold" investment philosophy, and explains why it's dangerously incomplete. Written by Ken Moraif, one of Barron’s top 100 Financial Advisors in the United States three years a row and who called the 2008 market crash in November of 2007, this book outlines an alternative strategy that better serves investors who are at retirement age. Written in easy-to-understand language and buoyed by Ken's trademark humor, this guide shoots down the myths that keep investors in risky markets, and arms readers with the knowledge, motivation, and strategies that may help them survive-and even thrive-during the inevitable next bear market. Too many retirees lost a large percentage of their investments during the market collapse of 2008 and spent years trying to regain their footing. During the collapse, many advisors told their clients to stay in the market. Ken did the opposite, advising his clients and listeners of his popular radio show “Money Matters” to get out of the market in November of 2007-before the economic meltdown. With this book, Ken shares his 26 years of experience to help investors prepare for the imminent bear market that could devastate their retirement plans. For those looking to build a sound financial plan for the long run, this book provides expert insight and solid advice with supporting charts, graphs, statistics, and anecdotes. Understand the buy-hold-SELL strategy - Learn how to design a sell strategy to protect principal in the next bear market - Find clear-cut information regarding retirement finances - Discover the benefits of a diversified portfolio This book expands upon old advice to provide the most important part of the equation: a sell strategy designed to protect principal. The goal of Buy, Hold, & SELL! is not to make investors rich quick, but to help keep them from becoming poor. Countless retirees lost large amounts of money in the market crash of 2008 and have yet to regain their footing. Many financial advisors who cling to the buy-hold strategy, advised their clients to stay in the market and ride out the market collapse. Certified financial planner and popular radio host Ken Moraif advised just the opposite. Prior to the meltdown, he counseled his firm's clients and listeners of his radio show to get out of the market before the economic disaster that cost investors millions of dollars in losses. In these uncertain financial times, investors face volatile markets, huge deficits, and even the risks of governments going bankrupt all of which add up to the possibility of huge losses. With these prospects, it's simply irresponsible to just ride the market. Savvy investors need a proactive plan that includes a sell strategy. Buy, Hold, and SELL! is filled with the information and inspiration investors need to reject outdated buy-hold advice and tap into the power of buy, hold, and sell. Buy, Hold, and SELL! explains how to use the buy, hold, and sell strategy to ensure a sound financial future. Moraif offers clear-cut information for retirees and reveals the benefits of a diversified portfolio. Tremendously useful and accessible, this guide also includes a healthy dose of Ken's trademark humor, with real-life stories, personal anecdotes, charts, graphs, and compelling information. Moraif shoots down the myths that keep investors in risky markets, arming readers with the knowledge that may help them overcome economic obstacles to achieve financial success and prosper during the bear markets that will certainly arrive.

Steve Onofrio, Senior Vice President, SEI Investments "Writing in an engaging style filled with stories based on personal experience, Ken first points out many of the gaping problems with the classic buy-hold strategy.
