Thanks MichaelB
Here's a free one for REWahoo...
Amazon.com: The Millionaire Wage Slave eBook: Alex Johnston: Kindle Store

Being an employee of a business rather than its owner does not preclude you from becoming wealthy. You can build your own personal conglomerate on the side. It is simply a matter of funding that enterprise with the same urgent intensity of a cash-strapped entrepreneur....the book also answers mankind’s most burning question – “How should I handle my portfolio in the event of an invasion by space aliens?”

Thanks for the heads-up MichaelB. I don't have a Kindle so I downloaded the Kindle for a PC reader. After that Amazon allowed me to download the book. Thanks again.

MichaelB, thanks for the heads-up. Now, all I need to do is retire so I can read all the freebies that are suggested here.

Agree. He published more CAPE / PE 10 data than anyone else I could find, always with useful analysis. It was a loss when he decided to charge for that.
