Bill Gross on Investing
Learn where the markets are headed--and how to ride them to success. Global changes point toward a dramatically different next decade in the realm of finance. As the bull markets of the last twenty years fade away, new investment tools and strategies are necessary. In this book, William Gross, one of today's most respected money managers who has built his fame on tracking economic trends, prepares readers for a completely new approach to investing. He emphasizes bonds, the right kinds of stocks, and a globalized investment portfolio for this new era in investment. In an accessible style, Gross intermingles discussions of investment with humor, wit, and personal anecdotes. William H. Gross (Laguna Beach, California) is the founder, managing director, and CEO of Pacific Investment Management Company, which manages over $90 billion in assets for both institutional investors and individuals.
Summary of William Gross's I’m Still Standing
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was born in 1944, a child of Dr. Spock, a child of the Cold War. My parents were cold too, but devoted to their kids and their education. In 1954, we moved to San Francisco, where my father had sensed the necessity for a better education. #2 I graduated from Duke without honors in 1962. I was about to be drafted and sent to Vietnam, so I enlisted as an officer in the Navy flight program at Pensacola, Florida. After training on propeller-driven T-28s, the Admiral cut me from his team. #3 The book Beat the Dealer was formative in my career at PIMCO. It taught me how to count cards and how to make large bets, which I used to win money playing blackjack in Las Vegas. #4 I owe my mother for getting me the job at Pacific Mutual. She read an advertisement in the LA Times one Sunday morning, and said, Bill, would this interest you. It did, even though it was for a security analyst, because at the time I had no job offers.

The Bond King
From the host of NPR’s Planet Money, the deeply-investigated story of how one visionary, dogged investor changed American finance forever. Before Bill Gross was known among investors as the Bond King, he was a gambler. In 1966, a fresh college grad, he went to Vegas armed with his net worth ($200) and a knack for counting cards. $10,000 and countless casino bans later, he was hooked: so he enrolled in business school. The Bond King is the story of how that whiz kid made American finance his casino. Over the course of decades, Bill Gross turned the sleepy bond market into a destabilized game of high risk, high reward; founded Pimco, one of today’s most powerful, secretive, and cutthroat investment firms; helped to reshape our financial system in the aftermath of the Great Recession—to his own advantage; and gained legions of admirers, and enemies, along the way. Like every American antihero, his ambition would also be his undoing. To understand the winners and losers of today’s money game, journalist Mary Childs argues, is to understand the bond market—and to understand the bond market is to understand the Bond King.
Catalog of Catalogs: A Bibliography of Temporary Exhibition Catalogs Since 1876 that Contain Items of Judaica

This vast corpus of material, ranging from simple leaflets to scholarly catalogs, contains textual and visual material as yet unmined for the study of Jewish art, religion, culture and history.
