The website is not working and none of the workbooks are accessible. Could not do any of the assignments. This is a defunct course.

I love the "Straight to the Point" talk. No small-talk, just crucial information that is needed. Doesn't fumble over words. Presents very well.

I learned a lot of new material to help me. The chart description is a bit elementary for me, but the class may be geared to laymen with no chart experience. If that is the case, I like it the way it is.

Only through the first 5-6 lectures, but already, I am so pleased! The instructor assumes you know nothing about investing - precisely what I needed. In the hands of a lesser tutor, the subject matter could be dry enough to lose the viewer (for example, I already own several online Investing courses that I slogged through to the 25% mark, then gave up out of frustration). This gentleman's fun personality - and obvious enthusiasm for the topic - are keeping me engaged. He also breaks down concepts using simple sketches and a conversational tone so that anyone is able to "get" them.
I can't recommend this course highly enough.

Finally understood what bonds are. He explains the concepts to you like you are a 5 year old. Short, sweet and to-the-point with examples and illustrations!

Based on the 3 courses so far, the material was presented very clearly and in an easy to understand format (i.e. visual with simple explanations). Also, the presenter was able to relate financial concepts with practical examples.

I like this course because it illustrated very useful concepts and fundamentals which I can apply when performing stock exchange. The way of teaching is fantastic and wonderful. I enjoyed the courses that I have taken and would definitely recommend others to join too.

This series has been very informative- easy to understand, engaging, and perfect for a novice like me. The key points are clearly laid out with helpful diagrams. A well thought-out program!

I am pretty inexperienced in the world of personal finance and this course was a great place for me to start learning about basics in a concise way. Being in the medical field, I learned a whole lot of other information but never get much instruction on real life financial topics which should really be taught to everyone! I really liked that the lessons are broken down into shorter videos, which made it less overwhelming, easier to digest and go through even on a busy day. The topics covered are all things I have been wanting to learn about but didn’t know where to start. The instructor is engaging and I enjoyed his drawings and straightforward way of explaining things. I haven’t completed the entire course yet but I am excited to play around with some of the other tools and worksheets available through the course as well (already enjoyed playing around with the retirement worksheet simulator).

So far I have watched the first five lessons - it has been incredibly helpful in explaining the basics of investing. It explains things in ways that are easy to understand but it is not so simple that I am being told things I already know. The teacher is engaging and keeps my interest.
