First printing, 2014. With obi. Minor scratches on the cover and spine. (The inside pages are in good condition.) The six years leading up to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics will be an "era of investment" where even beginners won't fail. Let's say you have 10 million yen in savings right now. If the Abe Cabinet's inflation target of 2% is achieved every year, the value of your savings will decrease by 2% each year, or 200,000 yen. Of course, you'll earn interest on your savings, but the current interest rate on fixed-term deposits is around 0.025% to 0.2%, so even with interest of 2,500 yen to 20,000 yen each year, you won't be able to avoid the decrease in value. In this age of inflation, how should we manage and invest our assets? This book aims to be the easiest investment guide in Japan, explaining in an easy-to-understand way the basics of what beginners who have never invested before should keep in mind when starting to invest, and the characteristics of bonds, investment trusts, and stock investments as investment products that are easy for beginners to start with.
