Abstract:
There is no little league on Wall Street and no white belts. Here or abroad, you're immediately put in with the black belts: the best and the brightest. Think like an amateur-by attempting to invest like a robot or following the leader-and your portfolio will quickly suffer. While many investors are smart, creative individuals, when exposed to the herd, they tend to follow group mentality and succumb to what the people around them believe. Avoiding this trap can mean big profits for you. In Investing without Borders, author Daniel Frishberg-a financial professional with more than thirty years' experience in the industry-shows you how to break from the pack and build a winning portfolio. Investors in the old economy didn't think critically about changing economic or political conditions around the world. They never really had to-especially with the enduring dominance of the U.S. economy. Investing without Borders takes you away from this outdated, and costly, mentality by putting our changing financial environment in perspective. Throughout the book, Frishberg discusses what it takes to successfully invest-both domestically and abroad-and provides practical examples to help drive his points home. Page by page, this reliable resource: Explores the importance of diversifying and escaping the "herd" mentality that hinders most investors Shares insight into investing for the long term and taking advantage of the growing world economy Details the staggering amount of resources being applied to the global boom and what this means for your investments The lessons of this book go beyond today's economic crisis. They provide you with an insightful examination of the skills needed to be a proactive investor and find diverse investment opportunities in the emerging economy. If you intend on capturing considerable profits by going out on

your own, then Investing without Borders is the book for you.
