Before you sink a single dollar into the stock market, you need to know author Susan Laubach’s 7 rules to invest effectively and make your money grow. Susan knows a LOT about investing. She is a former Wall Street stockbroker and financial educator. She’s taught several levels of investment education to students aged 18 to 74.
