SUPER CASH THE NEW HEDGE FUND CAPITALISM

"James Altucher is scary smart, and also a font of great and original ideas. So it's no surprise that SuperCa$h is so much fun to read and so devilishly informative. It is equally full of 'holy cow!' moments and 'why-didn't-I-think-of-that?' moments. A true keeper." —Stephen J. Dubner, coauthor of Freakonomics
"Altucher describes in easy-to-understand terms the strategies used by the smartest managers in the world—those who are running the hottest hedge funds—to show how they are making money today. SuperCa$h is a great primer for those who are looking to trade like the pros. And it helps that Altucher writes in a clear and fun style!" —John Mauldin, President of Millennium Wave Advisors, LLC, and author of Bull's Eye Investing
