I bought a used book and finished reading it in few days. It gives me insight around bonds and why we should consider government bond as an alternative safe place to put money during recession and inflation. Certainty is a very important factor in investing and O'Higgins successfully argues that sometime bonds are better than stocks although there are also times when stocks perform well, too.
